Directed by Kim Ki-duk, the movie portrays lives of people in a small town located on the outskirts of an American military base. They suffer from problems brought on by the Korean War. Chang-guk and his mother were abandoned by his father, who was a black soldier stationed in Korea, and he is often ridiculed by the town's people for being mixed. Ji-hun hates his father who claims he is a war hero but has nothing left for his glory. Ji-hun has a secret crash on Eun-ok who can only see out of one eye. An American soldier promises Eun-ok to help her gain her sight back, but he only abuses her, and she is later raped by village boys. None of them is able to escape the withering pull of tragedy. All desperate pleas for love and redemption are returned like letters stamped in red with "Address Unknown". Tickets: 3,000 won. Located near Anguk Station, subway line 3.
