A human rights activist targeted by Japan's far-right—she starts a counterattack.

It doesn't matter how rough the world is. I have to survive and protect my family.

One hundred years of Zainichi history and the relationship between Korea, North Korea & Japan, from the protagonist SHIN Sook-ok, a third-generation Zainichi human rights activist and a woman entrepreneur, to her mother Keiko and grandmother LEE Baek-ran. SHIN, a well-known businesswoman, jumped into human rights projects in 2000 after Tokyo Mayor Ishihara made far-right comments. She led the Norikoe Net Project to victory, which protested against hate speech and won related legislation. Her activities made her a target of the far-right groups in Japan.

Due to numerous threats to her family, SHIN Sook-ok had to live in exile in Germany. Now, she returns to Japan and begins a counterattack.

One Sunday morning, when I was studying in Japan in 2000, a TV show on Korean-Japan relations aired.

The far-right commentator provoked everyone by condemning criticism against Korea without hesitation.
However, SHIN Sook-ok, dressed up in red, spoke with a clear voice and left a strong presence by refuting the illogical logic of the far-right commentator one by one.
She was like Wonder Woman, protecting minorities. I, a poor international student living in a foreign country, called for a hurrah for her performance in a small tatami room.

SHIN Sook-ok has cooled down the festering hearts of Koreans in Japan, like a sip of cider.
She seemed like the bravest female activist in Japan. I met her as a film director while shooting Counters (2018), and I thought I'd make a film about her one day. Years later, she became a target for the far-right, and I held the camera for her.
