Director Lee Jae-yong has successfully injected passion into Korea's conservative, neo-Confucian-dominated Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). Although eroticism often figured in Joseon folk plays about the real lives of yangban (nobility), modern historical dramas tend to be as staid as the dogma that kept Joseon women under cloaks and behind high walls. But this refined, stylish and polished drama uses exquisite costumes and classical music to catch the decadent air of the 1988 film Dangerous Liasons. Both movies are adaptations of Choderlos de Laclos' 18th century novel "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" which satirizes high society. Lee's piece delves beyond the affairs of aristocrats and fascinates viewers with timeless subjects of vanity, intrigue and the war between the sexes. The movie is basically a moral drama that ends in tragedy. Senior actress Lee Mi-suk gives her best performance on celluloid as the scheming Madam Jo who is amorally determined to bend others to her will through any method or cost. Young, handsome actor Bae Yong-jun makes his film debut as the cynical hedonist Jo-won, and Jeon Do-yeon wins substantial empathy for her character Lady Suk, whose refined manners become the target of Jo-won's desire and Madam Jo's plotting. The first thing that strikes viewers is the quality of the cinematography, near-perfect period locations and visually sumptuous costumes. This is filled with riveting acting, the product of skilled direction that adroitly broidered emotions to dialogue. Deceits within deceits take their tragic course in the storyline that follows the original but dresses it up in the manners and clothes of 18th century Korea. |
