Mind-child in the Forest
Dongbin’s life was unstable both at home and school. One day, he accidentally enters a labyrinth-like forest. Beyond the forest, the ‘mind-children’, the realization of wounded minds, are living together. Dongbin starts an adventure with a girl named Ahn to discover his mind-child and return to the original world. The story reminds us that it’s important to love ourselves by accepting the wounds and healing oneself.
