“‘Sub-zero wind’ centers around two young girls forced to adapt and overcome struggles and hardships at an early age. In place of benevolence and tender love, they are neglected and left with no support or protection and have only witnessed the dark side of humanity is greed and selfishness. How will they be able to survive?... As teenagers, the disadvantage is obvious, no resources and forced to remain silent to protect the honor of the family name.” Kim Yu-ri
