Ko A Sung's film ”I Hate Korea” depicts a realistic portrait of youth... a journey in search of happiness

The film "I Hate Korea" (director: Jang Geon-jae), scheduled for release on August 28, will form a special empathy with those who were born and live in Korea.
The movie "I Hate Korea" tells the story of a woman in her late twenties, Kena (played by Ko A Sung), who one day suddenly decides to leave her job, family and lover behind in search of her own happiness.
The film is based on the novel of the same name by author Jang Kang-myung, and is written and directed by director Jang Gon-jae of "One Summer's Fantasy."
