Interview: Director Yu Eun-jeong Says the House in 〈Shadow Child〉 Was Designed by Kim Chung-up

※ 〈Shadow Child〉 director Yu Eun-jeong interview continues from Part 1. 〈Shadow Child〉 recalls your earlier film 〈The Night's Door Opens〉. Both films depict death as a dark realm, yet each also takes a fundamentally affirmative view of existence — I saw similar imagery running through both.
