The Handmaiden [아가씨] (2016)

It’s kind of cute when movies have only one twist, right? The basic outline of Park Chan-wook’s elegant and depraved adaptation of the Sarah Waters novel Fingersmith is simple enough: a poor Korean duo aim to swindle a naive Japanese heiress out of her wealth, seduce and marry her, and then ditch her in an insane asylum to enjoy the spoils. But as the story unfolds, it is more of a fractal in its structure. A triptych of perspectives taking in each of the co-conspirators slowly unfolds in turn, revealing the myriad ways in which we are all manipulating and manipulated. Layers build, folds of pleasure and pain intertwining and overlapping, revealing secrets and exposing intimate truths which had always been apparent but perhaps not immediately noticed. A simple enough ruse is revealed to be a double-game, but it’s not even so simple as that. Betrayal begets betrayal, and between Sook-hee, Lady Hideko, and our so-called Count Fujiwara, everyone thinks that they hold an ace up their sleeve at all times. Escape can be promised, for escape is what is needed: both Hideko and Sook-hee have had traumatic upbringings, and “Faux-jiwara” asserts he suffered greatly to become the conman that he is in the narrative. But as structured by our Count, escape is a self-serving plot. He claims to go through the motions to help at least one woman in this ménage à trois, but finding him lying in a bed of money reveals his true self-serving motive. When people say what their interests are, believe them. Rather, Hideko and Sook-hee find release in their collusion and companionship, forging a genuine partnership as they plot to break free of their oppressive influences and make a new life for themselves. This requires great sacrifice on both of their parts, but represents the only true emotion experienced by any two characters in this film.

Pleasure and pain, as experienced by Sook-hee and Hideko, is the crystalline structure at the center of The Handmaiden. The two are inextricably linked, by circumstance and desire alike. These two women’s love is clouded not only by heteronormativity, but by their desires to break free. In a certain regard, the apparent betrayal at the asylum is asexual; “Sook-hee” as an identity simply wants not to suffer, whomever that woman may be. But this is true of the greater sexual superstructure built into this remote and twisted world. Hideko is always greatly tired by her reading sessions for her uncle-cum-husband, though the reasons for this initially remain clouded. As the dark secrets of this household are revealed, as the film steps past the snake guarding the gate of knowledge in this reading room, the true nature of these sessions are revealed. This is puppetry, the usage of a woman groomed for pleasure from an early age, allows for imaginative role-play by the men attending these sessions. No matter how aesthetic you make the reading room, no matter how performative the augmentation to the reading itself, this is the work of impotent men seeking to control and fantasize about women, manipulating them like marionettes. Uncle Kouzuki is an entirely false man, a self-hating Korean turned Japanese national who tortures individuals for pleasure. His tongue and lips are stained with book ink, indicating his literary sexual proclivities. Even when torturing Fujiwara in the close, he has to rely on fictional reference points to describe sex, recounting and taking revenge for texts which he lost by the women’s sexual rediscovery on this man he’s captured. Fujiwara, too, operates on a field of lies, viewing himself a domineer and yet wholly incompetent. At least our two antagonists mutually self-annihilate. I only wish I knew what Kouzuki would have done with that octopus. Park Chan-wook, you have your kinks…

If much of the film dedicates itself to the notion of nurture (if it can be called that) triumphing over nature, at least the close offers a rebuttal. Throughout the dramatic cycle of ruses and lies that informs much of the structure, everyone is a false actor. Lies flow freely and everyone is bound by their previous experiences. Everyone uses words and phrases which they’ve heard before in other contexts to garner favor or sow fear. Sook-hee assures Hideko about her troubled birth by using things she’d heard before, and Hideko preys on Sook-hee’s smitten nature by stealing how she’s “alone in this world” to seem more vulnerable than she really is. The initial sex scene between Hideko and Sook-hee, initially organic and erotic, becomes manipulative once we know that Hideko has read out plenty of scenes of this nature and is not, in fact, a complete naif. And yet there is release. In a closing scene of passion, Hideko and Sook-hee enact the “bells” erotic novel, but it’s just for their mutual pleasure. They’re united and freed from this toxic and controlling death-spiral even as their supposed masters destroy themselves. I can only hope that in the future, Hideko becomes a drag king, because werk, bitch.

Park Chan-wook is fucking funny. There’s so much humor buried in this subversive narrative in the camera language and timing of the edits. Pratfalls, people running about like dipshits, that fucking pussy-eating POV shot. And yet he’s deeply erotic when the moment calls for it. “Ladies are just dolls for maids,” Sook-hee muses as she unbuttons all of those buttons on Hideko’s dress. It’s humorous, to a degree, but also sensual, especially when Hideko reciprocates the gesture. Another layer of performance in this performative vision of sex, yet they can realize it in a constructive way. That darkness haunts the periphery in the hangings of generations of women here. It’s oblique at first, Sook-hee discovering the beautifully braided rope by which Hideko’s aunt allegedly hanged herself. It remains with Hideko as a threat from her uncle. Later, Sook-hee “hangs” her mother figure in a silhouette with her braid, and saves Hideko from suffering the same fate. The bonds of control reclaimed by those meant to limit them.

I really need to call out the searing, lush, romantic and fraught score furnished by Jo Yeong-wook. Fucking phenomenal. As with the architecture of the home, the score melds flavors of English and Japanese traditions and instrumentation to create something achingly beautiful, bringing to mind the likes of James Newton Howard within the film world, or perhaps Samuel Barber within the classical canon. The “My Tamako, My Sook-hee” cue is an all-timer, far as I’m concerned.

THE RULES

SIP

Someone opens a door.

Inner monologue begins.

Sook-hee has to come up with a lie.

A reading session begins.

BIG DRINK

A part intertitle appears onscreen.

Kozuki licks his pen.

TOO MANY BUTTONS

Octopus imagery.

（短評）映画『最後まで行く』

（引用元）

『最後まで行く』（2014年、韓国、原題：끝까지 간다、英題：A Hard Day）

人を轢き殺したことを隠蔽しようと車で遺体を持ち去った男、しかしその遺体をよこせと謎の人物から電話がかかる💨

面白い‼️

魅力的な登場人物たち、次々とテンポ良く手に汗握る展開が続き、多数の謎が次第に繋がる良脚本‼️

予測不能で観る者を釘付けにしてくれるサスペンス映画‼️

絶体絶命のような展開が何度か続くのですが、それが自然で映画全体を見終わっても整合性のある配置になっており、とても良くできた脚本で面白かったです👌

またこちらをハラハラさせるようなちょっとした演出がとても上手い🌟

「え、どうなるのこれ？」という気持ちが全く切れないのは見事‼️

どいつもこいつもダメなやつばっかりなんですが、みんなどこか人間くさくて、時折見せる良心や正義感などが際立って良い👍

主演のイ・ソンギュンの小物っぽさが良かったですが、同僚のチョン・マンシクも素晴らしかったですね‼️この人、他の映画でもそうですが、名脇役だと思います🌟

Best Screenplay (Kim Eun-Hee)

Birçok kez birçok ülkede farklı şekillerde aynı konu işlendi. Filmleri yapıldı, dizileri yapıldı. Tek tek isim vermeme gerek yok ama çoğu kişi en azından birini hatırlıyordur. Günümüzden biri, telefon/telsiz/radyo gibi bir cihaz ile geçmiş ile iletişime geçiyor. Bu kişi bazısında kendisi oluyor, bazısında babası oluyor, bazısında ise tanımadığı bir yabancı. Temelinde geçmiş ile kurulan iletişim şeklinde bir kurgu yatarken senaryo bunun üzerine farklılaşıyor.

Signal de Kore dizilerinin altın çağı 2016 yapımı bir dizi. Oyuncuları başarılı hikayesi sağlam ve bir sürü ödülü kucaklaşmış. Park Hae-Young (Lee Je-Hoon) küçükken kötü bir olay yaşar ve sözünü polislere geçiremediği için onlardan biri olmayı hedefi haline getirir. Sonunda amacına ulaşmış ve profil uzmanı olmuştur. Karıştığı bir dava sonucunda bazı insanları kızdırarak kendisini "Çözülmemiş Davalar Birimi" ‘nin parçası olarak bulur. Tesadüfen bulduğu bir telsiz ile Lee Jae-Han(Cho Jin-Woong) adına bir dedektif ile konuşmaya başlar. Gece yarısında belli bir süre kadar açılan bu telsizle konuştuğu kişinin 15 yıldır kayıp olduğunu sonradan öğrenir. Üstelik şuan bulunduğu ekibin amiri Cha Soo-Hyun(Kim Hye-Soo) 15 yıl önce Jae-Han’ın ortağıdır. Üsttekilerin; bir süre sonra kapatıp ekipten kurtulmak için kurdukları bu birim 10 yıldan fazla süredir çözülememiş davalara bakacaktır. Neyse ki ekipte 15 yıl öncesiyle konuşabilen biri vardır.

Şakası bir yana konu aşağı yukarı bu şekilde. Dizi üç çizgide ilerliyor. Geçmişte Jae-Han’ın yaşadıkları, günümüzde Hae-Young’un yaşadıkları ve bakılan davalar. Şimdi burada bir duralım. Aslında bu zamanda yolculuk konuları benim kırmızı çizgim. Kafa karıştırmadan paradoks anlatabilen senarist benim gözümde yok denebilir. Zamanla oynayanlar bir yerde pes edip, yaptım olduculuğa geçiyor. Bu dizinin o kısmını takdir ettim. Kafa karıştırmıyor, seyirci gibi düşünerek hareket ediyor.

Dizi belli bir temponun altına hiç düşmedi. Her bölüm seyirciyi çekmeyi başarıyordu. Üstelik bu tempoyu içinden çıkması çok zor bir konu etrafında koşarken yakalayabiliyordu. İzleyiciyi hiç karanlıkta bırakmamasını ayrıca sevdim. Açıklaması gerekeni paşa paşa açıkladı. Öyle havada kalan, halının altına süpürülen bir şey olmadı. Çok dallandırmadan, geçmişte değiştirilen bir şey gelecekte her şeyi tamamen değiştirebilir noktasına da çok güzel parmak bastılar. Hatta bunun üzerine geçmişteki bir şeyi değiştirmek, şu anda istediğin sonuçları vermeyebiliri de çok güzel örneklendirdiler. Yani geçmişte yaşanılan bir olayda birinin hayatını kurtarmak onun kısa bir süre sonra başka bir olayda ölmeyeceği anlamına gelmiyor. Bu tarz buzda yürünmesi gereken konuları başarılı kotaran bir dizi olduğunu düşünüyorum.

Dizinin ilerlediği çizgilerden biri olan geçmişte çözülmeyen davalar, birbirinden bağımsız gibi görünse de bütün davalarında bir şekilde bir yerlere bağlanması bence çok yerinde bir tavır olmuş. Üstelik bunu yaparken izleyici hiç irkilmiyordu. Öyle bir bölüm bir dava bakalım diğer bölüm başka davaya geçelim yerine kendi içinde bir akışı vardı. Ben diziler ile ilgili yorumları izlemeden önce okumuyorum. O yüzden bu dizi hakkındaki yorumlarda beni olumsuz etkilemedi. Beklentim yoktu mesela, bu kadar başarılı olması ekstra hoşuma gitti. Bu bir beklenti ile izleyip hayal kırıklığına uğramanızdan iyidir diye düşünüyorum.

Sıra dışı ekibimizde Kim Gye-Chul ismi ile yer alan Kim Won-Hae ise yine şahaneydi. Deneyimli oyuncu her dizisinde kendini belli ediyor. Dizinin küçük bir kadrosu var. Bu küçük kadroda herkes üstüne düşeni yapıyor. Final!! Benim için tam bir şoktu. Birçok kişinin finalden hoşnut olmadığını düşünüyorum. Ama sakin kafayla bakınca aslında en olası finallerden biriydi. Bunun yerine ben biraz daha uzun çekilmesini tercih ederdim. 16 bölüm değil de 24 bölüm olabilirdi. Ucunu izleyicinin hayal dünyasına bırakmak yerine şöyle şanıyla şerefiyle kendisi toplardı.

Ve son olarak dizinin müzikleri enfesti. O kadar dizi izledim, gerçekten müzikleri ile bir adım öne çıkan dizi sayısı bence çok azdır. Bu dizinin müziklerine bayıldım, bayıldım.

OST:

Kim Yuna - The Road

Inkii - The one who will Leave

Jeong Cha Sik - I will Forget You

Raven Melus

BAŞKA NELER VAR ?

A non-romantic K-drama starter pack

If you're interested in K-dramas but don't know where to begin, and aren't interested in (or would like to take a break from) romantic storylines, then this is for you!

P.S.: Some of these dramas may contain romantic side plots that don't necessarily define the main storyline. List not sorted in any particular order, and only includes completed dramas.

Gifs not mine!

Stranger (2017; 2019)

A political crime thriller full of red herrings, "Stranger" (Season 1) follows an investigation into the murder of a man who has bribed countless officials from multiple levels and branches of government. Led by stoic prosecutor Hwang Shi Mok (Cho Seung Woo) and feisty detective Han Yeo Jin (Bae Doona), this well-paced, well-acted drama is full of twists and turns that will make you suspect everyone at some point.

Kingdom (2019; 2020)

Historical political drama meets zombie thriller in the 2019 hit "Kingdom" (Season 1). The story follows Crown Prince Yi Chang (Ju Ji Hoon) as he investigates an outbreak of a mysterious plague that turns average citizens into rabid monsters while fighting to keep his rightful place as heir to the throne. The hit series has led to a second season and a prequel TV movie "Ashin of the North" (2021).

Signal (2016)

Featuring a mysterious walkie-talkie that links the past to the present, "Signal" is one of the most beloved police dramas of the last decade because of its refreshing take on the genre and the top-notch performances of its three leads: Kim Hye Soo, Lee Je Hoon, and Jo Jin Woong.

The Uncanny Counter (2020)

"The Uncanny Counter" is a comedy-drama about four "counters", or grim reapers who have been lent superhuman abilities by a group of spirits. Their main job is to stop demons who possess violent criminals that become more powerful by consuming the souls of their victims. Funny, colorful, and action-packed, the show features wonderful performances from the main actors: Jo Byeong Gyu, Yoon Joon Sang, Kim Se Jeong, and (my personal favorite) Yeom Hye Ran. The hit series has been granted a second season.

Racket Boys (2021)

If you need a feel-good drama that's not too heavy on the tears, crime, and lovey-dovey tropes, then this may be for you. "Racket Boys" is about an underdog middle school badminton team that dreams to make a mark on the national level and beyond. The rural setting and endearing ensemble cast, led by the talented Tang Jun Sang, allow for lighthearted moments but are never too cartoonish. A puppy love storyline exists between the leads, but it's very wholesome and innocent, and given far less importance than the struggle surrounding the national tournament.

Squid Game (2021)

International smash hit "Squid Game" is about a mysterious organization that selects individuals with impossible debt to participate in a series of children's games to have a shot at winning 45.6 billion won. The catch: only the winner gets to live. Features an amazing ensemble cast led by Lee Jung Jae, Park Hae Soo, and impressive newcomer Jung Ho Yeon.

Dear My Friends (2016)

A slice-of-life comedy drama featuring a stellar ensemble cast of the most accomplished Korean actors and actresses over 60, "Dear My Friends" follows 40-year-old writer Park Wan (Go Hyun Jung) as she chronicles the stories of her mother, her aunts, and their families. There are two romantic side stories here but the overall plot is more invested in how your friends can become your family especially after you reach a certain age. Think "Golden Girls" but in Korea. Praise-worthy acting from everyone involved, especially the main quintet: Na Moon Hee, Kim Hye Ja, Go Doo Shim, Park Won Sook, and Oscar winner Youn Yuh Jung.

Live (2018)

"Live" is a slice-of-life, police procedural drama that tells the story of rookies and veterans at Hongil Station in Seoul, where there is no shortage of petty and violent crimes. The crimes featured examine the decisions that South Korean cops have to make especially in dangerous situations wherein the gray areas become even grayer. There are romantic storylines between the four leads but they never overshadow the cases. Wonderful acting, especially from Bae Sung Woo and Bae Jeong Ok who play the veterans Oh Yang Chon and Ahn Jang Mi, respectively. Also stars funny man Lee Kwang Soo and the angelic Jung Yu Mi (Train to Busan).

Vincenzo (2021)

Born in South Korea, adopted into an Italian family, mafia lawyer Vincenzo Cassano (Song Joong Ki) flies back to Seoul after falling out with his adopted brother following the death of his boss/father-figure. His mission is to retrieve gold hidden beneath the dilapidated Geumga Plaza before it is ultimately demolished by the evil Babel Group that constantly harrasses its tennants to move out. Teaming up with the feisty lawyer Hong Cha Young (Jeon Yeo Been, Vincenzo uses mafia tactics in his war against the conglomerate that thinks itself above the law. What sounds like a heavy premise is offset by the physical and witty comedy provided by the charismatic leads and supporting cast. There is romance between the leads (who share great chemistry nonetheless) but it is by no means the driving force of this story. They could have recasted this with two male leads as more of a bromance story and the outcome would be quite similar, but Jeon Yeo Been gives a unique, quirky flair to her character that makes her difficult to replace.

Hyena (2020)

I know I said this wasn't a list for romantic K-Dramas but hear me out. There's romance but it's not what you think (the leads kiss a grand total of 3 times, twice in the first ep then once a little later). "Hyena" explores the world of corporate lawyers who serve the South Korean 1%. It's a dog-eat-dog world where the most conniving and least picky hyena reigns supreme. The hyena in question would be the brilliant renegade lawyer Jang Geum Ja (Kim Hye Soo). Sparks fly as she goes head to head with the by-the-book, elite lawyer Yoon Hee Jae (Ju Ji Hoon), whose ideals are constantly challenged as his world unravels around him. The cases are challenging and the solutions that the leads come up with are intriguing. Romance doesn't drive this drama, but the chemistry between the leads is undeniable.
