SAD, Not just love about man and woman, but about Friendship
This is one of the best film I ever watch. The background of time, the cloth, the place they took to shooting was really good and detail. The story is commonly in people live. It’s really make my heart sad, because of the character was very good. The artist and actor can make all the things on this film alive.

You must to watch this, because it’s a beautiful film. Love, Lies.. it’s just not about the love between the man and woman, but it also about love in friendship.

Characters swept by the current of colonial history
For me, the enchanting aspect of the movie is that it explores the relationship of arts with the people. The two characters, best friends So-yul and Yeon-hee, start off as young trainees in a house for gisaeng. Gisaengs were like geishas, and the women played the role of (traditional) artists and entertainers for aristocratic events. This movie’s setting is in the Japanese occupation era, so the gisaengs are mainly entertaining the Japanese military personnel. So-yul is exceptionally talented in the traditional arts and she could sing the ‘jangga’ (a type of trad song) very well. However, her boyfriend Yoon-woo is a pop song composer. As much as he respects the Korean traditional arts, he thinks that the entertainment by gisaengs are for the upper class and are unable to provide comfort to the general public suffering under the colonization. He tries to persuade So-yul into singing pop, but she realizes that her interests still lie in the traditional arts. Meanwhile, the gisaengs look down on pop-singers, stating that pop is just an inferior form of art appreciated by those with no refined taste.

I was expecting the story to be about So-yul changing her path from a traditional artist to a pop-singer, but that happens to Yeon-hee instead. So-yul watches as her best friend Yeon-hee, is discovered by people as the uprising talent in pop and grows close to Yoon- woo. Eventually, So-yul goes down the road of revenge after she learnt that both her boyfriend and her best friend betrays her.

Haeuhhwa itself is not only a personal story about a thrilling triangle romance but it is also a depiction of the greater circumstances that the characters are living in. Sometimes I wonder if So-yul would end up better if she does not take drastic measures to prostitute herself to the highest power in the Japanese military in exchange for the power to take revenge. Given her talents, she would have become a legendary figure in the history of modern gisaeng. However, when one thinks from the perspective of So-yul, it is clear that any accomplishment means nothing because she would only be an object of desire by the colonialists who claimed to have ‘fine taste’ in traditional arts. The status and dignity of a gisaeng in that era, clearly put, was tainted by the foreign occupation. Towards the end, there was a scene where the Korean people ransack the houses of gisaengs post-liberation. It was so sad to watch because as time changes, a different group of people become the target of criticism. The gisaengs were only trying to make a living under the colonization, but they were perceived as ‘traitors of the Korean people’ because they entertained the Japanese power.

I also want to commend the cast for their acting skills. Han Hyo-joo is good at portraying both the pure side and the vengeful side of Yeon-hee. I have never seen her playing a dark role before (hence the surprise at the plot twist), and I think she did it well.
