Program Note
One day, before the opening of the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics in 2018, Yeonhwa, a North Korean defector and ticket-selling teahouse worker, delivers coffee to a motel. When undercover detectives enter to crack down on the motel, Yoonhyeok, the receptionist and aspiring police officer, stops them. It is interesting to see how people with different motives and situations gather in one place. The Olympics, which made us dream of peace on the Korean peninsula, arouses mixed feelings. (BAEK Jae-ho)
