"A Korean in Paris" (2015)

Directed by Jeon Soo-il

With Cho Jae-hyun, Jung Ji-in-II, Mi Kwan Lock,...

"A Korean in Paris" is a co-production between South Korea and France
Synopsis
A man living rough scours the backstreets of Paris for his missing wife. In the red light district, he shows a photo of her to the prostitutes there, but no one seems to recognize her. How did he lose his wife? The couple had been enjoying their honeymoon in the city when she vanished out of the blue. Judging by the husband's shabby appearance, it looks like some considerable time has passed since that terrible event, but he nonetheless continues his quest with the photo. In his frustration, he seeks comfort from one of the prostitutes and confides her, but she is disappointed by him for treating her as a whore, and his underlying anger and murderous intent is revealed. Suspicions are surely raised: Could his wife have been murdered? What is the truth? Director Jeon Soo-il explores the man's vanity through this ambiguous story, begging the question of whether it is a dream or reality? Cho Jae-hyun takes the lead role again, following Jeon's "El Condor Pasa" (2012). (NAM Dong-chul)
