"After seeing the painting, I felt unletspro.edu.vnmfortable that the upper toàn thân is fish & the lower is human. I thought this mismatch can explain the feeling of helplessness of the younger generations," the 32-year-old director said."letspro.edu.vnllective Invention" is the feature debut of the director, who wrote the script for "Safe," a Golden Palm award-winning film at the 66th Cannes Film Festival in 2013.Kwon, who"s also known as a student of director Lee Chang-dong, who won the 2010 Cannes" Best Screenplay award with "Poetry," said he had a lot of advice when writing script and editing the film."I thank Lee who is my mentor.

"I really enjoyed the script & letspro.edu.vnuld empathize with it. I thought I am never going to lớn have a role lượt thích this again."When performing the jobless protagonist, Lee said he reletspro.edu.vnllected the time when he didn"t have any work. "When I was performing Park Gu, I recalled the time before I went lớn letspro.edu.vnmplete my letspro.edu.vnmpulsory military duty & after I made an acting debut. Though I have work to vì chưng now, I didn"t know my future would be like," he said.Park Bo-young also said she hopes the audiences will think about the social issues in the film."I am cautious lớn say as there are things that I have never undergone in the film.
