??? (The Architect) Independent Motion Picture (Short)
Non-Union (SAG-AFTRA signatory)
The brief story of a middle-aged Korean-American engineer who falls in love with a bridge.
Park Jeong-Hyo, a mid-level employee at a civil engineering firm who always dreamed of becoming an architect, has fallen out of love with his wife, Park Jae-Gyeong. His life has receded to a place of tedious predictability. When a new co-worker, Bae Baram, shows an interest in him romantically, it rekindles his zest for life, if not his wife. He begins to notice the beauty of the world around him, in particular a bridge across which he walks every day on his way to and from his office. Invigorated by this new ‘joie de vivre’, he begins to construct a scale model of the bridge in the basement of his home, and to question his life’s trajectory (and the people in it).
CHARACTER BREAKDOWN:
BAE BARAM (20s): flirty, sarcastic, fun; a pretty young girl with a modern, Americanized look; the newest employee (and the only other Korean) in Jeong-Hyo’s office.
