CGiii Comment

The Joseon era: Suk-gyeong is the youngest daughter of the late king, whose brother now sits on the throne; her five sisters have been married off to worthy but dull court nobles, a fate she is determined to avoid. So after meeting a handsome young scholar, Suk-yeong resolves to search for him, contriving to leave the palace grounds in which she has been confined her whole life. In this lively costume drama, director Choi Eun-hee, the third woman to direct films in South Korea, takes aim at the stifling class and gender structures navigated by the stubbornly romantic Suk-yeong. A Princess’ One-Sided Love is ultimately a film about role-play in all its myriad forms: a sly comic testament to what can be learned by dressing up.


There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
