Overview

Jiwon, who is attending graduate school, has been a student of Professor Kim. The move is aimed at finding a better job by taking advantage of the title of "Professor Kim´s disciple." At a time when they are about to announce their acceptance into the research institute, they are caught up in unexpected things.

Review

She takes care of someone else’s laundry, operates the person’s SNS account, and grabs a burger while waiting in a car, not knowing when the professor comes out of the drinking party. Is she an assistant? A driver? She is a just student who assists her professor. She knows that her predecessor had to wash the professor’s underwear. In an intense rhythm and events, the film delivers her mixed emotions and rage against her struggle to survive for seven years. Handheld camera and close-ups reveal her complicated, shattered feelings. Actor Seokhee, who plays the student Jiwon, shows a realistic and multifaceted performance. The director is well aware of how to deliver the story she wants. (YOO Sunhee)
