β¦ Synopsis
Four stories exploring a world both comic and tragic and a Korea rarely seen: a Kpop girl group on the brink of stardom and death, a North Korean soldier who wants the bravery of his legendary ancestor, true love after the catastrophe of a tsunami, and the life of a train track suicide cleaner who loses his dream job when the bodies all suddenly disappear. The stories in Between Here and Oblivion are fun, quirky, and bites.
