If you loved The Magician, try La Concubina del Emperador
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Kim Dae-seung, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Magician, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La Concubina del Emperador is
Dangerous Liaisons in feudal Korea. A woman enters the palace as royal concubine, attracting the attention of both the king and a low-born servant. Sensual melodrama with a fatalistic edge.
