Synopsis

​ A woman who spends her days writing songs on a circuitous route and a lethargic man who has just left his job meet by chance on a train. At first, they think the worst of each other, but as they start to see more and more of each other, they start to realize they begin to realize that they've been imagining the worst: spending the rest of their lives with each other.

Program Note

​ On the subway, a woman engrossed in writing lyrics catches the attention of a man who seems displeased. This movie tells the story of a relationship that begins with an unusual encounter. Just like the lyrics of the songs discovered during the back-and-forth journeys, My Worst Nightmare unfolds as a romantic comedy set in the daily space of the subway. The film aims to transform this space, often seen as a symbol of exhaustion due to overcrowded commuters, into a delightful and charming atmosphere. It envisions a daily life filled with such enchanting melodies. (Lee Yongcheol)
