This was the first movie from South Korea I saw, and I must say I'm inclined to see more films from there. It's a beautiful love story. The title character is courageous, trustworthy, and utterly honorable. I'm a little confused as to whether Chunhyang actually existed or not, but if she did, she has all my admiration. I'll never forget the scene where the executioners beat her legs and she moves her head in the Korean symbol for the number one ("one love"). Anybody who can do that deserves all my respect. I also love the lively drum music that accompanies the narrators. If you can find this movie (I saw it on the Sundance Channel, if that's any help to you) I urge you to check it out. I think you'll find it quite entertaining and very touching.
