If you loved Mandala, try Chunhyang
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Im Kwon-taek, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mandala, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Chunhyang is
Here's a movie that really wants you to know it's a folktale. Star-crossed lovers from different social classes meet, but he has to leave her to take an exam. A corrupt official then arrives to complicate things for the maiden. It has commitment to its source material, certainly.
