Description

In 1980, the south of the Han River is teeming with people and machines exuding heat. The landscape, where new apartments symbolizing urban development stand beside old, small, temporary-built “hamba” houses, is awkward. A husband chasing his wife with a knife, shouting curses as she runs out of the hamba house, powerfully depicts the weary lives of people amid the reckless destruction driven by development.
