Dong Gu has to go to Ji Chul’s house and find his employee ID by the boss’s coercion, without mourning the death of his friend and co-worker Ji Chul. The company, which may have driven Ji Chul to death, pushes Dong Gu into extreme conditions until the end. This work deals with the ontological crisis experienced by individuals at work, and carefully contemplates the current Korean society in which understanding and solidarityamong members of society are disappearing under the capitalist system. In particular, it captures delicately the image of a newcomer in society who suffers and struggles between social status as a member of the organization and personal friendship. Through this, it reproduces the bitter aspect of the modern society in which the sense of solidarity within the group is collapsed and individual values are lost.
