A Tough Life

2006 12 min Korean

For his birthday party, Kyung Soo’s mother invites his elementary school friends for a wonderful birthday party. Believing he is interested in English, she loves to invite his classmates from English class to be native English speaker teachers. As soon as a foreign girlfriend of Kyung Soo, arrives, the exciting party air starts to be broken. Everyone gets shocked by her dark skin. His friends make fun of her by saying, “Are you from Africa?” and “Go back to your country!” Dragging Kyung Soo into a room, his mom says, “Why do you play with her cheating on your mom?” His moderate mother finally unmasks herself.
