Botanist Dong-ho, after retiring, lives alone and tends to his own greenhouse.

Their friendship gradually deepens, but then Bom-i suddenly disappears, leaving behind only a note and a silkworm kit. After waiting for days, Dong-ho, overcome by a sense of foreboding, sets out to find him.

"The Birth of the New Right" (2025)

Directed by Goo Jin-hyung

Synopsis
After liberation, the remnants of pro-Japanese collaboration and dictatorship, never properly punished, continued to be subtly reproduced within the logic of power to this day.

This work investigates how the "seeds of national ruin" sown during the Syngman Rhee regime have managed to survive in the political landscape of today.

Erased names. Silenced records. Lies repeated time and again. By exposing the faces of the powerful who hid behind them, it brings forgotten truths back into the light, one by one.

Who holds the true sovereignty of a nation? By whom, and in what way, is history written? Remember: history that is not remembered is bound to be repeated.
