The second Korean film there is a remake of the first and is sometimes given the same title in English, but yeah, confusing.;

Actually slightly annoyed I forgot to watch another film with the titular star of the that second film before it expired from Mubi.

James - the first Korean film I listed was Park Chan Wook's The Handmaiden. I take it you mean The Housemaid (2010, Sang-soo Im) is a remake of The Housemaid (1960, Ki-young Kim)?

So make that 5 film/television pieces to get mixed up.

Robert Adam Gilmour, Sunday, 25 November 2018 14:41 (five years ago) link

Wow

Thanks. Forgot about the Korean Handmaiden, obviously, and the extra confusion it was contributing
