Dir: Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, 2003)
Cast: Ha Jung-woo (The Berlin File, 2013), Kim Min-hee (Very Ordinary Couple, 2013), Cho Jin-woong (A Hard Day)
Production: Moho Film
Distribution: CJ Entertainment
Filming Dates: 1st Half of 2015 (expected)
Status: Pre-Production
Genre: Thriller
Plot: Based on Sarah Waters novel of the same name, the story takes place in 1930s Korea and focuses on a young pickpocket who becomes the accomplice of a con man and takes on a maid position with a wealthy socialite.
Probably the most high profile Korean film on the horizon, particularly for foreign fans, is the new film by Park Chan-wook. The auteur has signed on to a lot of Hollywood projects but it appears his return will be with a local film. The premise is intriguing, if not as catchy as Park's previous films, and the cast is good, though again, he's had had more enticing ensembles in the past. Still, Park's involving films are always worth the wait. However, given that the start date isn't fixed, I'm not sure we'll see this before the end of the year.

"Stoker" Just did not work at all. I hope this will be a return to form.
