"United, it's deadly; divided, it's livable."
The original script for the hit film "Jangson" has been published.
The most ordinary family, the record of its most chilling tragedy.

The original script for "The Grandson," the most talked-about film of 2024 that captivated critics and audiences alike.

The original script for "Jangson," selected by critic Lee Dong-jin as the Korean Film of the Year in 2024, will be published.
The film "The Jangson" delicately and coolly captures the process of the Seonsan Kim clan's family falling apart through mutual misunderstandings and hurts, amidst the flow of the four seasons, from a conflict that began at a summer ancestral rite table to a tragedy in winter.
This script collection is a highly complete script and commentary on the work, capturing the characters' emotional lines, the air between lines, and even the silence beyond the screen.
The birth and interpretation of a work are presented in three dimensions through the 'Design' (storyboard) that faithfully transfers the director's creative blueprint, 'Traces' that includes unreleased on-site stills, and 'Gaze', an in-depth review by critic Kim Byeong-gyu.

The book's design also captures the film's sentiment.
The cover, inspired by the tofu factory in the movie, replicates the texture of real tofu, and when the translucent band is removed, the title engraved in Chinese characters is revealed.
On the back cover, lines from the movie are placed in opposition to each other, visualizing the tense atmosphere between family members.
The script collection for "Jangson" will be a unique resource for both film fans and creators, offering a glimpse into the director's creative intentions and vision, and will become a valuable film archive book.

Taegeun
(Everyone focus)
Get up! Kumho Fiber, President Choi!
Oh my, this is so rich.
Daegu Textile Tower!
In the West, factories are huge!

Dongwoo
30,000 won!

The family burst into laughter at the pitiful amount of money, making Taegeun's boasting about his friend seem meaningless.

Taegeun
Ha… This kid, I’ll be thirty when my son gets married
I did it…
Someone else's child? You idiot, you're playing around.
No?

Seongjin
(angry but funny) Ah! Please be quiet!

The family members who were crying just a moment ago were nowhere to be seen, instead they were giggling and holding envelopes of money.
Seongjin, who was angry, can't hold back his laughter this time.
A scene of a family laughing and chatting, forgetting their sorrow for a moment…
