Director Seung-woo Choi's film "Last Summer" is set in Hongcheon County, Gangwon Province, and captures the lives of real residents, blurring the lines between fiction and documentary. The director aimed to convey the emotions he felt while observing the lives of farmers through the film, and was able to cast the residents without difficulty in order to capture their natural appearances on camera. The film depicts the story of a young man named Min-woo, exploring the cycle of life and death, but refrains from providing clear answers, encouraging viewers to think for themselves. "Last Summer" received critical acclaim, winning the Critics' Prize at the Busan International Film Festival and the Muju Mountain Film Festival. Choi's next film, "Winter Days," is scheduled to be released at the end of this year.
