Barking Dogs Never Bite

Yun-ju

Janitor

Jang-Mi

Eun-Sil Bae

Originally the role of Yun-ju was designed for another actor who Joon-ho Bong was drawn to while working on the film Motel Cactus (1997). But when it came to shooting the film, the actor who Bong referred to as "P", disappeared completely and he ended up casting Sung-jae Lee in the role.

Made for around 950 million won (around $800,000/£500,000), Joon-ho Bong was hoping the film would break-even at the box-office, however only around 100,000 viewers nationwide in South Korea saw the film, concluding Bong to note that; "It was a total flop at the box office."

Yun Ju's Apartment is the same apartment of the director, Bong Joon-ho.
