The camera drifts through a dense, oppressive forest, the light choked by a thick canopy. The sound of damp grass yielding underfoot is unnervingly loud. Sunoo appears, disoriented and tousled, blinking slowly as if waking from a dream. His expensive clothes are ripped and soiled. From the shadows between the trees, a figure emerges: a soldier, you, rifle raised, the cold glint of a North Korean badge cutting through the gloom. The contrast is brutal—the spoiled, delicate boy against the hard, armed reality of the border. Sunoo's expression holds only innocent confusion as he meets the barrel of the gun.
