The more money and women in your life, the better. This is the belief of mid-30s’ Sang-soo, who works for a real estate agency. He is a bastard, doing everything he can in order to be a winner in capitalism. He has already been away from his family, and even practices fraud to make a deal for a resort development business. At the moment his dream of ‘real property and Mercedes’ is about to come to fruition, something unexpected happens. The local people start to protest against the resort business, and his wife goes out with his best friend. The man who was rushing towards a career suddenly goes off his track. Director JANG Dong-hong, who directed two political films <Oh! Dream World> and <A Night before the Strike> shows us a portrait of modern people who cannot escape the material world. CHUN Myung-gwan, who caused a sensation in the Korean literature world with his novel ‘Whale’, wrote the scenario. YOON Je-mun’s acting is impressive as he plays Sang-soo in a mean and shabby way.
