Trivia
This is the first film made in Korea to be directed by a female, Park Nam-Ok. After a hard 6 months filming, many recording facilities for post production wouldn't let her use their space, because she was a woman. Only one theater in South Korea screened the film, and only for four days. It was financially unsuccessful.
