Director Im Kwon-Taek Retrospective: Chunhyang with Im Kwon-Taek
Date: 27/10/2012 6:00 pm
Venue: ICA The Mall, London SW1Y 5AH
Based on the Pansori folk song of the same title, Chunhyang tells the tale of two-star crossed lovers, Mongryong, the son of a nobleman, and Chungyang, the daughter of a retired couretsan. Im Kwon-taek’s modern re-telling of this classic love story explores the harsh, often tragic realities of class differences in 18th century Korea.
