Breaking the Frame as Directors... Lee Je-hoon → Park Jung-min 'Unframed' 4-Color Posters

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] Actors Park Jung-min, Son Seok-gu, Choi Hee-seo, and Lee Je-hoon present works that break free from the frame and showcase their own perspectives through the short film project 'Unframed.'

On the 15th, the online video service (OTT) Watcha revealed posters for 'Unframed' (produced by Hardcut), which will be released on the 8th of next month, featuring 'Class President Election,' 'Rebroadcast,' 'Bandi,' and 'Blue Happiness.'

Directed by Park Jung-min, 'Class President Election' is an elementary school noir capturing the intense class president election scene in the 5th grade, class 2, as fierce as the adult world. The poster, rich with genre-specific colors, draws attention. The copy "Do you want to be class president?" placed above an image capturing the moment of taking a ballot paper out of the ballot box, evokes a meaningful nuance and tension, sparking curiosity about what will happen in the 5th grade, class 2 classroom.

Directed by Son Seok-gu, 'Rebroadcast' is a road movie depicting a troublesome yet affectionate day shared by an aunt and her nephew attending a wedding together. The poster for 'Rebroadcast' first catches the eye with the backs of the aunt and nephew walking side by side down a quiet neighborhood alley bathed in warm afternoon sunlight, accompanied by the copy "Sometimes annoyingly, sometimes affectionately," which raises expectations for the playful chemistry between actors Im Seong-jae and Byeon Jung-hee, who play the nephew and aunt roles respectively.

Directed by Choi Hee-seo, 'Bandi' tells the story of single mom Soyoung and her nine-year-old daughter Bandi, who decide to reveal a special secret they have never spoken about before. The released poster for 'Bandi' features a new face of actress Park So-i, known for her roles in 'Pawn' and 'Deliver Us from Evil.' The copy "It's not lost, it's hiding" continues alongside the title 'Bandi,' arousing curiosity about the special story mother Soyoung will share with her daughter Bandi.

Directed by Lee Je-hoon, 'Blue Happiness' follows Chanyeong, a job seeker who dreams of an ordinary life while facing anxiety and worries about the future, chasing happiness that remains elusive despite his efforts. Actor Jung Hae-in, who plays the protagonist Chanyeong, delivers a notable transformation in his performance. Against a blue-toned background matching the title, Jung Hae-in’s expression, holding a cellphone and appearing deep in thought, along with the copy "Happiness is far, reality is near," raises anticipation for 'Blue Happiness,' a story that anyone living in the present youth can relate to.
