    After being released on June 21, 2 Doors is attracting a lot of interest from overseas markets as it has been consistently aired via IPTV and online media. It was also screened in Washington last Oct. 13, on the 18th in LA, and it will have a special screening in Sydney on the 26th. Moverover, it is also making headlines for its selections at the 8th Taiwan International Documentary Festival and the 2012 Festival du Film Coréen à Paris.
     
    The special screening in Sydney, Australia has been arranged by KRC, the Korean Resource Center, the Construction, Foresty, Mining and Energy Union and Korea-Australia Union. Attending the two screenings on the 26th being held at the Latvian Theater, will be directors KIM Il-ran, HONG Ji-yoo and the creative director LEE Hyuk-sang, plus the family of the bereaved of the Yongsan tragedy who are also working as the Truth Commission on Yongsan tragedy.

A Norwegian women, after seeing the film at an English subtitled screening, said “I can’t believe this horrible incident has occurred in my country and it is even more surprising that less than 1% of the whole population has seen the film.”
