Program Note

Ji Yoo, an acting major, is filming a vlog in the middle of the night, steps out to retrieve some props from the locker when a friend, who hadn’t come along, suddenly passes by without noticing her. Seizing the opportunity to play a prank, she hides around the corner, waiting, only to receive a call from the friend who just disappeared. Confusion ensues for her. The tension she feels in the dimly lit corridor evokes an illusion akin to watching a live broadcast. This short beautifully captures the allure of suspense, showcasing the director’s imaginative flair. Anticipation builds for the director's next work. (KIM Hye Na)
