Im Sang-soo (director of The President's Last Bang and A Good Lawyer's Wife) has remade Kim Ki-young's The Housemaid. Check out the trailer:

Stars Jeon Do-yeon (Secret Sunshine, Happy End) and Seo Woo (Paju, Crush and Blush).
By the way, you can view the entire original film online for free courtesy Martin Scorcese:

Here's what Scorcese had to say about the film:
"Kim Ki-young�s Hanyo, or The Housemaid, is one of the true classics of South Korean cinema, and when I finally had the opportunity to see the picture, I was startled. That this intensely, even passionately claustrophobic film is known only to the most devoted film lovers in the west is one of the great accidents of film history. I�m proud that the World Cinema Foundation is participating in the restoration and preservation of this remarkable picture. I am eager for more people to get to know and love The Housemaid."
�Martin Scorsese, February 2008 |

Saw the original on the auteurs.
It was very entertaining. Something gritty about the whole thing.
Based on what I saw in the trailer, it looks cheesy already.
A man living far beyond his means. |
