If you loved The Magician, try Die Konkubine
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 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 Die Konkubine 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.
