Director's Statement

In my new film, as it happens in the latest Korean genre films, the story is what it is because the characters make certain decisions, and the characters grow the way they do because the story puts them in that situation. Therefore, they are inseparable.
MAGIC GIRL uses a chain of blackmails, a black cinema typical element, to speak about love, desire, obsession and the relationship between human beings and their darker side. The eternal conflict of the human souls struggling against their enemies.
