Chun Tae-il: A flame that lives on / 태일이
When Tae-il gets hired as tailor’s assistant to Pyeonghwa Market, he dreams of one day becoming a full-fledged tailor. He wants to be able to financially support his family and put his brothers and sisters through school. But when all his hard work finally earns him the position he had been yearning for, he finds himself constantly reminded of the faces of the young female laborers, slaving away for wages that amount to no more than a cup of coffee. Young girls vomiting blood from the dire working conditions they are forced to endure. Tae-il realizes that kindness alone will do nothing to bring real change. 22-year-old Taeil decides to confront a reality where the ‘Labor Standards Act’ isn’t enforced at all. He makes a choice to become the flame of hope himself.
