Life Line

“Only gods who understand the workings of nature would know the fate of the island.”

Wealthy Choi, owner of a small fishing fleet, dominates the economy of remote Nak-wol Island and rules over it like a tyrant. When his overfishing depletes the catches, Choi blames the water spirits which angers the local shaman. To earn more money, Choi becomes a loan shark, driving the villagers deep in debt.
