Synopsis

‘A’ is walking in an abandoned area scheduled for redevelopment. ‘A’ after being chewed out by his boss for missing his appointment. The sound of a motorcycle passing by annoys him so he throws the ice cream he was holding at the bike.

Program Note

Stuck is ambiguous. The first meaning is stabbed in Korean. A deliveryman is injured by a metal pipe. The assailant is an insurance salesman, and he doesn’t call for a hospital. Instead, he suggests an unreasonable deal to minimize his fault, in exchange for saving the delivery man life. The background of the redevelopment complex symbolizes people who can give up human values and decency for the sake of their financial benefit, your conscience will be stuck by Stuck.
