Acting
Seoul Cinema will be closing down soon. The last screened film, The Widow, shows scenes that depict what Seoul looked like long ago. After watching it, I walk along the same streets shown in the film. The famous statue of General Yi Sun-shin, which was said to have been moved, is still in the same location. I feel like I’ve already walked this road with someone else before. While a lot of things change, something of the past always remains. I decide to fall in love with these remnants.
Three friends, who majored in filmmaking in college together, decide to meet at a restaurant they used to frequent in front of their school. However, one of them doesn’t show up, while another friend, who happens to see the others, decides to join instead. There clearly is the air of discomfort around them, though.
Dear you, unrelated is a contemporary project that dares to believe in the potential of fiction. Directors Lee Mi-rang and Lee Jong-su attempt to imaginatively restore the lost ending of The Widow. In The Widow: Rewoven, Lee Mi-rang reimagines the protagonist Shinja making a radically different decision from the original. Her film captures the inner turmoil and determination of a woman once dismissed as an Après-girl, tracing her hesitant yet resolute steps toward a new path. In Bearer of Dawn, Lee Jong-su presents a fictional scenario in which Shinja seeks revenge by finding a blacksmith. A newly added sequence in which she chooses a sword shifts the film's tone from drama into one infused with the suspense of a thriller.
