"A South Korean documentary film was screened Thursday, depicting how local residents learned to love their hometown and homeland, while fighting against the deployment of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD).


'Blue Butterfly Effect,' directed by Park Moon-chil, showed residents in the Seongju county, North Gyeongsang province who have protested against the U.S. missile shield's deployment for the past year.
