Nicole KWAN has been in hospital for years. Dealing with the dieses is painful but, at the same time, it has been the largest and most familiar part for her life. A boy, little Hung, keeps staying around her.
Nicole spent a long time in the hospital, suffering from lupus. Her illness pains her but it is also an intimate being that is a big part of her life, and that she cannot separate herself from. And there is a little boy called ¡®little Hwang¡¯ who lingers around her. This is an impressive work in which the brilliant idea of personifying an illness, which befits a short film, stands out. Based on solid direction, the director finely portrays a placid yet mysterious ambience. (HWANG Miyojo)
