This story begins with a question about the possibility of friendship between a man and a woman, specifically the concept of a ‘yeosachin’ (female friend) and ‘namsachin’ (male friend). Socially, there’s much debate about where the boundaries of such friendships lie. Some argue that friendship transcends gender, even to the point of being able to ‘bathe together,’ while others believe that intimacy beyond ‘just having drinks or a meal together’ should be avoided. But can a friendship between a man and a woman truly endure even in extreme situations? An experiment to answer this question begins in the shadows.
