In the outskirt city of Gimpo, which is busy constructing a new development area, There are the three protagonists of Bomdong; an old man who follows his junior classmate who is a boiler repairman, and his young son who hasn't decided his career path. The film focuses on microscopically exploring the culture remaining in the outskirts and the relationships between the people in the area. The outskirt of Gimpo is a place where employers and employees coexist harmoniously with a spirit of brotherhood among neighbors, and where one’s classmates growing up still stay as friends. As the region is going through the period of transition, the relationship and the culture of the people living in it will soon disappear. Bomdong accurately documents the sentiments of urban outskirts. The film is also a sad song sung for the area and the people who will soon disappear. (Source: JIFF) Edit Translation
