What nude scenes mean for actresses (Source) 2006/03/27
Just two decades ago, it was rare for movie fans to see actresses do nude scenes because of strict censorship and most stars were hesitant about undressing for the camera.

But as the domestic moviemaking trend took an innovative turn towards liberal expression, nude scenes no longer made much news. And interestingly, baring all turned into an effective strategy for actresses to prove their acting skills, commitment and passion for acting.

"I think of nude scenes as a crucial passage to become a real actress", said actress Eom Ji-won after shooting director Hong Sang-soo's "Tale of Cinema". "After stripping in front of the camera, I felt that I could now take any role".

Even veteran actresses with over 10 years experience have chosen to shoot nude scenes to reach a higher level of acting.

Top actresses Jeon Do-yeon and Kim Hye-soo each gained new perspectives in "Happy End" and "Hypnotized", respectively.

But despite the changes, differing views on nudity often cause conf... |More
Voyeurism, politics and desire in 'Summer Time' (Source) 2004/03/25
Like looking at a photograph of an ex-lover years after the relationship has ended, "Summer Time" (2001), director Park Jae-ho's controversial erotic drama, possesses the power to arouse on many different levels. At the film's core are the issues of voyeurism, politics and unadulterated desire; a mesmerizing combination that makes for compulsive viewing.

With a narrative running from the present back to the dark days of the Gwangju massacre - when political unrest and social upheaval dominated the Korean landscape - this is an intriguing examination of human relationships, especially ones that are firmly in the grips of one or more of the Seven Deadly Sins.

In a small town somewhere in rural Korea, the beautiful Hee-ran spends her days at home behind a padlocked door that only husband Tae-yeol has the key to. Sang-ho, a handsome student activist, moves into the room above, discovers a hole or three in the floorboards and begins spying on the couple. Before long, he is an earnest... |More

Synopsis

In the dark ‘80s, Sang-ho is wanted by the authorities for participating in the student movement. He ends up in a town he has no connections to, hiding on the second floor of a worn down wooden house. One day, he discovers a hole looking into the room downstairs, and he happens to see Hee-ran. Every gesture she makes is captivating and seductive. He watches her body, feels her, and takes her into his heart. She lives a confined life, like Sang-ho. Her husband locks the door from the outside when he goes to work. Then, one day, he drops his keys on his way out. Sang-ho hesitates before he uses them to go in, but when he does, he sees her lying face down in the same position she usually is in while engaged in sex with her husband. Sang-ho approaches her. He caresses her the same way her husband does, and she receives him out of habit. Then one day, he does not caress her like he usually does. Thinking it strange, Hee-ran turns around. The gaze of the two crisscross heatedly. Sang-ho guiltily hangs his head when Hee-ran strokes his face tenderly. They share a powerful and passionate kiss…
