Forever Girls explores girlhood and the image of death manifest in contemporary South Korean cinema, where girls' bodies have repeatedly embodied various conflicting socio-political forces that shaped the nation. With the depiction of girlhood from the 1970s as a reference image, Jinhee Choi examines the extent to which the girlhood represented in millennial South Korean cinema still resonates with such an image, ultimately arguing that South Korean cinema needs to more adequately mourn girls' deaths and grant them the very girlhood that has long been denied.
