'The Remarried Empress' viewers divided over costumes, dialogue delivery

“The Remarried Empress,” which has built a global fan base through its original web novel and webtoon, has made its live-action debut. Given the popularity of the original, expectations were high even before its release. But so were concerns over whether a live-action adaptation featuring Korean actors could convincingly bring to life the world of a romance fantasy set in a Western-style imperial court. Released on Nov. 3, the Disney+ original series “The Remarried Empress” is an epic romance fantasy centered on Navier (Shin Min-a), the seemingly perfect empress of the Eastern Empire. When Emperor Sovieshu (Ju Ji-hoon) tells her he wants a divorce after falling for Rashta (Lee Se-young), a runaway slave, Navier agrees on one condition: that she be allowed to remarry Prince Heinrey (Lee Jong-suk) of the Western Kingdom. The series is directed by Jo Soo-won, known for hit dramas including “I Can Hear Your Voice” and “Pinocchio.” “The Remarried Empress” already boasts a substantial global following. The original web novel has recorded more than 160 million downloads, w

Filmmaker Lee Chang-dong finds poetry in fight of the powerless individual

"'Possible' and 'love' are both commonly used words, but when they came together, the combination felt unfamiliar. I wondered, 'What kind of love is possible?' I thought the title would pose a question to audiences and prompt them to reflect on the nature of love." The title "Possible Love" sparks curiosity before the film and leaves audiences with a peculiar sense of sadness afterward. It emerged from this very idea, according to director Lee Chang-dong, whose seventh feature film marks his return to the big screen after an eight-year hiatus. The Hankook Ilbo met Lee at a cafe in central Seoul on Friday, the day Netflix, the film's investor and distributor, released it worldwide. As its title suggests, the film explores several intertwined layers of love. It follows the events that unfold when Ho-seok (Sol Kyung-gu), a laid-off worker, and his wife Mi-ok (Jeon Do-yeon) encounter Ye-ji (Cho Yeo-jeong), an affluent documentary filmmaker who films their lives, and her husband Sang-woo (Zo In-sung). Issues of labor, class and the ethics of artistic creation overlap on multiple levels. Lee
