Same woman as wife and mistress ??


I couldnt help but notice that Lee Eun-Woo plays a double role here. She is the mother and the convenience store lady with whom the father has an affair.

Was there any hidden msg in here??

I think they thought no one would notice!! Probably couldn't afford another actor or maybe they couldn't find anyone else willing to be in this train wreck!!

The point would be that people desire what they don't have while all the while ignoring what they do

wow, pretty cool.
I didn't notice it ( though I noticed both had quite an impressive bosom...)
Also, does that mean there were only two women?
I thought the mother, the mistress and the store clerk were 3 separate entities. if mistress and store clerk are the same woman that adds a whole new layer.
interesting though disturbing movie...

reply

dont take it as a plot relevant thing. She was not supposed to be the same person.

reply

The mistress and the store clerk ARE the same person. That part is obvious. They weren't meant to be different people. The son first saw the father and his mistress in the act and then later in the film she approached them while they were driving away. So the son knew who she was and went to see her at her workplace.
The mistress and the mother being played by the same actress, however, isn't meant to be as obvious. It's meant to add another layer of symbolism, I think.

I didn't quite notice that, but I DID notice their tits looked identical, LOL! So I guess I should have figured it out.

That's how I found out! At first I thought "does everyone in Korea go to the same surgeon?" lol but then I checked the cast.
