PARK Ji-han (박지한) - Synopsis
It is 2007 and in a house without any parents, it falls upon older sister Ga-hye (PARK Han-sol) to hold down a delivery job and take care of her younger brother Kwang-hyun's (PARK Kang-sub) even though she is a teen herself. This plucky girl is also a minor delinquent, which gets her involved in all sorts of scrapes brought on by the need for cash and Kwang-hyun's developing consumerist tendencies – think a desire for expensive Apple iPods. When it turns out that Kwang-hyun has been made class monitor and he wants to get hamburgers and cola for his classmate’s vacation, Ga-hye plans to steal a motorcycle and buy those hamburgers with the proceeds.
Despite this only being director CHOI’s fourth film production, it features a rich atmosphere of summer and strong performances, all of which were good enough to snag the film the Jeonju International Film Festival’s Short Film Grand Prize.

- Director's Message
- I wanted to talk about people on the sidelines in a Korean way. I even prayed without compassion for their growth.
