The issue with housing in Korea has been a rather significant one for quite some time, with the country's cinema frequently featuring it, mostly in the independent titles. Lee Ji-yeon approaches the concept through a rather unique story, by focusing on the “race” to find a place to stay for a single mom and her young son.
Hide and Seek screened at Busan International Short Film Festival
The short begins with a mother, Jung-hye, and her young son, Minchan, visiting an apartment showed to them by a real estate agent. When the son lies about the place they actually stay, a block of luxurious apartments, the agents lights up, changing his whole behavior towards them and immediately asking for their potential will to buy instead of renting. Their reality becomes evident in the next scene, though, when the two of them are barging in the aforementioned house after spending some time in a supermarket.
