Netflix held a production presentation for the new documentary 'I'm a Survivor' at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 13th. The event was attended by producer Cho Sung-hyun, who created `I'm a Survivor' following the `I'm a God' series.
JMS filed a provisional injunction against MBC and Netflix against former church member Lee, and the JMS Saints Association. On the 12th, the Civil Agreement Department 21 (Chief Judge Jeon Bo-seong) of the Seoul Western District Court held an interrogation. JMS argued in court that `the production team is raising false suspicions and defaming JMS believers and denominations.' However, the production company countered that the documentary was made based on facts for the purpose of public interest.' As the release of 'I'm a Survivor' is scheduled for the 15th, attention is being paid to whether it will be possible to release it normally.
Producer Cho Sung-hyun responded, `I was worried about what if something happened that I couldn't disclose that day. I hope everyone can see it at 4pm on August 15th" he opened his mouth.
"Yesterday (12th) was the day of the court hearing, and a total of three applications for provisional injunction were received before the broadcast was aired. They're asking us not to turn on our broadcast. I don't know why I have to stop the broadcast like this, but it seems to disprove that it's very inconvenient to be released to someone, as is Season 1 and this time. But it's something everyone should know. I trust the courts of the Republic of Korea and believe that they will make good judgments for the people."
Is 'I'm a Survivor' twice 'I'm a God'? Stories. It is a documentary series that records the four harrowing events that shocked the Republic of Korea, and the story of the day that should not be repeated, with the voices of the survivors. Consisting of eight stories, 'I'm a Survivor' examines how public power and our society have protected and mass-produced criminals through JMS (Christian Gospel Mission), its leader Chung Myung-seok, and Maple's unabandoned struggle against the huge power to protect him. It also deals with the Busan Brotherhood Support Center, where the worst human rights abuses in modern Korean history were committed due to illegal public power exercise, and the murder factory was built out of hatred for the wealthy. It also deals with the structural problems of our society, which have been neglected and repeated through the voices of survivors who returned from the four hells that day, including poor construction, corruption, and the collapse of Sampoong Department Store caused by irresponsibility of supervisory agencies.
'I'm a Survivor' will be released on Netflix on the 15th.
