"I can't close my eyes because of your beauty"
Miss Yeon is a short film of love, loss, and heart wrenching regret. At a mere 15 minutes director Choi Ji Won told the broken love story of two high school girls in flashback at Miss Yeon’s funeral.
Woo Jeong blows off her boyfriend much to his anger and leaves to attend her friend Su Yeon’s funeral. Only a few friends are in attendance in addition to the grieving mother. Jeong is overwhelmed with memories of the sweet young love she shared with Yeon. And also the hurtful words their friends had to say about people who had same sex relationships. Filled with the anxiety of being caught and shunned, Jeong began dating a boy to “protect” her relationship with Yeon, an unfaithful act Yeon could not accept.
This short film highlighted the scorn and repudiation lesbian relationships faced and the pressure it put on the young couple. While Yeon accepted herself, Jeong struggled to fully accept herself and Yeon and desperately wanted to fit in with their gossipy friends. A confrontation at the funeral would grant Jeong a chance to vent her guilt and unbearable grief.
