If you loved An Affair, try Untold Scandal

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by E J-yong, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to An Affair, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Untold Scandal is

A period drama of manners and seduction, with a wager at its heart. A notorious Joseon libertine is challenged to deflower a young virgin entering his aunt's household. Should he succeed, his aunt promises him an even greater prize. It's a fairly faithful retelling of *Dangerous Liaisons*, but with swords.
