Director's Statement

The theme of my film, I Beg for, is mistrust. I tried to show various kinds of mistrust and wariness towards people. Also, I wanted to talk about the structure of Korean society where they can only occur, and moreover, the appearance of many people living now. Although there is social criticism in the film, I made this film with the hope that the world will change for the better.
