What happened in Korean society in the 1990s ? The film starts with the Jijon-pa (Supreme Gangsters) case. The shocking story is narrated through the discussion by the two detectives who arrested the gangsters, of details of the roundup, data screens , and the death sentence . Nevertheless, Nonfiction Diary’s focus is not on the crime story. Starting from Jijon-pa onwards, the film reflects on the 1990s, when Korea digressed into contemporary history. The Seongsu Bridge and the Sampoong Department Store’s collapses are recalled, followed by the then-government’s punishment of the May 18 Uprising leaders, revealing the Korean legal system’s death penalty status , touching on political and power issues . The audience is reminded that today , 2013, is an extension of that same flow. Director Jung Yoonsuk’s Non-fiction Diary “records” the records by summoning forgotten incidents, utilizing interviews and the media’s data screens. This record is a “report”on contemporary society as well as a “record of the remembrance”. (HONG Hyosook) 18th Busan International Film Festival Documentary Competition
