Key Quotes: “I think that [concerns about job security] are more of a global trend, really, with the emergence of AI. And also we live in a time where human labor, or the value of it, seems to be deteriorating, I feel that in various ways — and depending on each director or filmmaker’s style — we are seeing more projects like this, where the director is really inviting all of us to think about these issues together.” – Zo In-sung
“I think no matter what country you’re from, the fact that many people may find themselves in the shoes of my character, Ho-seok, is quite a scary thought.” – Sul Kyung-gu
