On March 26, 1991, five elementary school students living in Daegu's Dalseo District went missing after leaving home to collect salamander eggs, a case that remains unsolved. Director Lee Kyu-man, who produced the film 'Children' based on this incident, shares stories about meeting the families of victims and those involved in the case during the making of the film.
The director says that the most difficult part was meeting the bereaved families. He promised the parents that he would make a film without distorting the truth, saying, "I had the stamps of all nine children's parents on every page of the screenplay. That's how the script became so starkly red," vividly recounting the situation at that time.
Meanwhile, it is revealed that the investigation into the frog boys' disappearance at that time was conducted based on a shaman's words. In response, MC Lee Kyung-kyu expressed anger, while Han Seung-yeon, upon hearing the story of a father who still has not reported his son's death, said, "I'm sorry," unable to hold back tears.
In particular, a small surprise gift for the late Woo Cheol-won's father, who still misses his son, is revealed. With technical cooperation from East Soft, the late Woo Cheol-won was restored through AI, allowing for a reunion after 34 years. Father Woo Jong-woo finally delivered his last farewell to his son, moving everyone's hearts.
