From the very first impression, the movie <The People Upstairs> delivers both intense bewilderment and a fresh shock to the audience. This is because the screen is filled with provocative themes and uninhibited dialogue that are rarely encountered in the Korean commercial film market.

The movie attempts a frontal breakthrough by blatantly and honestly revealing points that might feel uncomfortable or awkward given the conservative Korean sentiment. This bold direction becomes even more intriguing when coupled with the fact that actor Ha Jung-woo took the megaphone, allowing us to guess the unique color and cinematic ambition he wanted to showcase as a director. Looking at Director Ha Jung-woo’s filmography, the production process of this work itself is quite interesting...
