시놉시스

As the perspective of an outsider looking at the struggle of Miryang moves over to how the residents view transmission towers to be built in the town as a legitimate problem, we get to think about the meaning of the fight distorted with bias and misunderstanding. As for other villages such as Gol-an and Dogok, Yong-hwe, where construction is almost done or have just started relatively, their stories begin from the town all the way up to the mountains. This imagery illustrates the suffering of the residents under pain and misunderstanding, while the issues surrounding the high voltage transmission towers are structurally revealed.       

 

Episode1 (연출 : 하샛별)

synopsis

Appearance : 문기주(쌍용차 해고자) 외 다수

The everyday profile of discussing other persons lives with no effort to try and know them better. A late night. In a pub right in the city of Seoul. A man laid off of Ssangyong(Mun Gi-Jyu) and his friends sit down and drink. Some of them are employees of KEPCO, and are set out to work in Miryang the very next day. Within the glasses being filled and emptied, a debate goes on between them – a debate concerning the stance of the townspeople against building the transmission towers in Miryang. Despite the heated arguments, no one in that pub knows the true story. The liquor starts to take affect and their discussion merely lingers in the air.     

 

- Through a viewpoint of outsiders see the struggle of Miryang the issues are addressed in a dramatic formality. Not every aspect serves the accurate story and truth. 

- However,  Mun Gi-Jyu supporting the people of Miryang and why, shows us that their battle is not just a particular regional problem, but that it brings us the fundamental question on what is valuable in life itself.    

- Furthermore the audience getting invested into hearing Mun’s story of battling against the very company he was laid off for five years, the reason for people still struggling in Miryang can also be imagined, given a periphrastic basis.    

 

Episode2 (연출 : 노은지)

synopsis

 

Located on the exterior of the mountain in Miryang, Gol-An village faces constant conflict during its ongoing construction of transmission towers number 106, 107, and 108. Every noon at 3, alongside the construction site for 15 minutes the grannies try to delay the process by putting a fight against the police and employees of KEPCO. For almost ten years, this has been a routine in the residents’ lives, and over that time, they have been finding ways to further out the battle, discovering what can be done in the best ways they know. Although it is a small and slow movement, these people who suffer for their own faith, may help us explore that of our own in life,     

   

- What made the grannies ‘warriors’?

- Their efforts in trying to delay the construction are driven by will, to what end?

- Could this construction of the towers be dropped?

- What would compensation and consultation affect in destruction of the community?

- After the towers are finished, what kind of lives would the grannies live? 

- The grannies have a strong hostility towards female police officers. Why would that be?

 

Episode3 (연출 : 허철녕)

synopsis

In Miryang Do-Gok-Ri, transmission tower number 117 has just begun to get built. The tower forces people to move out of the land with material compensation. However there is a woman who refuses to leave. Her name is Kim Mal-Hae. The past 87 years in Miryang have left lines in her face and a heart throbbing history and memories in her heart. Her frail body is able to stand up and fight for what she holds dear in that village for life. We will take a journey into her memories, while Mal-Hae confronts the looming transmission tower.  

 

- Mal-Hae’s story of the past memory of Miryang will be submerged with the present day version of the town, in order to show what kind of struggle and distraught the people of Miryang is going through. 

- Mal-Hae is not a warrior. We would feel distant and unrelated to the person who is known as a warrior of the Miryang struggle. But Mal-Hae is a warrior. She does not flee from what makes her life painful and heard to bear. 

- Miryang is a politically conservative. Mal-Hae is conservative as well, as we could hear from her very own words talking about politics, region and gender, loaded with bias and prejudice. Now the country has turned its back on her. How would she express this betrayal?     

 

 

Episode4 (연출 : 넝쿨)

synopsis

On the rear mountain of Yong-Hwe village in Miryang, a 101th transmission tower is planning to be designated. Ok-Hie is willing to protest against this plan, even if it would cause herself to her death. What is it, that make these old women fight to the extreme? Dug up holes in the ground and lined up nooses that make up such a disturbing image makes one wonder- what has driven these people to the very edge of the cliff? Before winding the nooses the women have fought on, since the day when they have become neglected by the government ‘state project.’ With ‘project approval’ and ‘legal’ their lands saved up for many years (after retirement) have become worthless in just one day. People of the village turned against one another due to fearful rumors, and suffered being constantly berated by officers and contractors alike.      

 

- Such bravery is shown by how much people fear death with the extreme amount of desperation. It is not the urgency that one could easily understand. 

- What has the transmission tower truly taken away from those people? 

- Gruesomely preparing for the upcoming war, what would these women do when the construction begins? 

-  

Episode5 / prologue (연출 : 이재환)

 

The mountains and deep sky, and low fields fall into the eyes of the people in Miryang. 

The mountains hug, the sky sings, and the ground dances. That is how the people live.

 

-The construction does not hint to cease. The towers have already entered into the villagers’ lives. Would their wounds from the struggle ever heal? 

-Even though the project has never been revoked, would the fact that the protest in Miryang was a justifiable act bring comfort to the people? 

- Ending on a hopeful note, for there were many people willing to support and help throughout the fight in Miryang.
