In July 2023, South Korea was struck by its deadliest monsoon in over a century. Record-shattering rainfall—648.7 mm in just weeks—led to deadly floods, collapsing dams, and catastrophic landslides. Over 40 lives were lost. Thousands displaced. Entire communities submerged.
This gripping documentary dives deep into the untold human stories of survival, confusion, and heartbreak. From Ji-soo, a single mother escaping rising waters in Cheongju, to Mr. Kim, a farmer who lost everything to floodwaters in North Gyeongsang—witness the emotional reality behind the headlines.
We combine real footage, reenactments, expert analysis, and rare survivor interviews to show the full impact of climate-induced weather chaos. Why did emergency alerts fail? What can we learn from the tunnel tragedy that claimed 13 lives in minutes? Could this have been prevented?
