If you loved The Taebaek Mountains, try Sopyonje
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 Im Kwon-taek, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Taebaek Mountains, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Sopyonje is
Pansori meets *The Piano* meets *The Searchers* with a data point from *Uncle Boonmee*. A blind woman keeps Pansori alive while her brother roams Korea searching for her. Two voices reconnect in an all-night performance that outlives the folk art itself.
