SYNOPSIS
One of the most common features of the horror genre in South Korea is a single female character who lives alone. These women are often targeted sexually, and as technology has advanced fears involving digital sex crimes, safety and security have intensified. The Rented Room employs the horror and thriller genre framework to highlight this awful reailty, giving solidarity and consolation to the women who live in fear. [HWANG Miyojo]
