If you loved Woman of Fire, try Insect Woman
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Kim Ki-young, and they both carry the dread, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to Woman of Fire, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Insect Woman is
Seoul, early spring, rustling silk. Naive Myung-ja ascends to hostess work, then takes the scholar Lee as her lover, all under the watch of Lee’s calculating wife. Soon, the women settle into a bizarre domesticity. Kim's lurid melodrama anticipates later Bong Joon-ho.
