The Sun Beyond the Wall
Published episodes · 3 Episodes
Six years ago, a construction site collapsed. Two people died, and Han Jaeho—the man in charge of the site—was left paraplegic and sent to prison. As his parole review approaches, he is given a single task: write a statement of remorse. He put the schedule ahead of safety. He failed to examine the risks closely enough. He approved the work. None of the sentences in the court judgment are false. But the day Jaeho remembers is not that simple. Pressure from the company. Incomplete reports. Ambiguous warnings. And the words he himself chose to record. Was he a scapegoat made to bear the entire weight of the disaster? Or an offender who has spent years hiding behind the words I didn’t know? Faced with a blank page, Jaeho begins to record what actually happened, one fact at a time, instead of constructing the explanation most favorable to himself. The Sun Beyond the Wall is a story of a man rereading his own life somewhere between guilt and responsibility, self-deception and forgiveness.
