Kim Hee-jung : 2012
Cheong-po-do sa-tang

Sun-joo is an office worker at a bank who is preparing for her upcoming wedding with Ji-hoon, an employee at a publishing company. However, Ji-hoon, who has recently become the liaison to popular female author So-ra, does not attempt to show an enthusiastic interest in married life. One day, Ji-hoon causes a traffic accident, and rushing to the hospital, Sun-joo comes face-to-face with So-ra. In actuality, Sun-joo and So-ra were classmates in school. Sun-joo befriends So-ra, with whom she has had no contact until now, suspecting that Ji-hoon's indifference to getting married might somehow be connected to her. The meeting will reawaken a memory of the tragic accident that happened to a mutual friend. However, they come to realise that their memories of the accident are quite different. What really happened to them? Can they reveal the untold truth? Seventeen years later, both women are still haunted by this event from their past. The film's international premiere screened in competition at Warsaw Film Festival 2012.
