Boram's take on Just Jack as a global virus won him £1,000 from Mercury records.

[synopsis]
A depiction of the artist, Just Jack, as a pandemic disease. This pandemic disease represents one's self-centered, selfish, and irresponsible behavior that brings a doom to his/her relationship. we tend to forget about the importance of the other not only when we are unconscious of it, but also conscious enough to know that there is an unhappy ending waiting for us.

We often take it for granted. I used the pandemic disease, 'Jack Influenza,' to represent the unstoppable wrong behavior that you want to stop, but is out of control until it's too late.

In the film, seriousness of an outside disaster(disease) does not seem to bother him when he experiences it only through mass media. It's like the selfishness that you know is bringing doom to your relationship, but you do nothing about it, or regret it only after it actually happens.

[short fact]
The making of this film as a submission for Radar Festival was very accidental and fortuitous. Everything started when I imported a CD of Just Jack's 'Overtone' album from the UK (he's not known at all in Korea).

The CD contained a paper that directed me to Jack's website for new music download, and visiting his site guided me to the news of Radar Festival. It started from there on, I asked two guys I knew, who also hadn't done any motion picture before, but were attending art school in Korea, to join me for the ride.

The whole process was very confusing and difficult since all of us were 'beginners' in making animation or any type of motion picture. However, I give all the props to Just Jack for making great music. If it wasn't this music, namely 'I Talk Too Much', I would have gotten so sick of this tune since i had to listen to it 100 times a day while making the film.

There were even some times when I had to refrain myself from listening cause this continuously repeated music was making me brain-dead.
