It seems that the troubled relationship in the family is always a topic that many directors aim for, including the director of adult films. And this time, director Lee Sang Soo did so by exploiting the relationship between the daughter-in-law and the father-in-law, which sounds sensitive and is completely suitable for an 18+ movie. As for Korean cinema, it is mainly familiar spices with sex scenes and hot scenes showing off the body. Gangnam Daughter in law is the work that deserves to be mentioned.
The film revolves around the character Ah Yeong, who wants to escape poverty and live in Gangnam. One day, she accidentally meets the rich Man Soo, who introduces her to his son, Tae Min. He finds her beautiful and kind, so he has sympathy at first sight, willing to do everything so that she can become his daughter-in-law. Not long after they started dating, the contract on the house Ah Yeong lived in was terminated and she moved in with Tae Min and Man Soo, just months before they got married. However, Ah Yeong began to feel more attracted to Man Soo, who genuinely cared for her, instead of Tae Min, who was incompetent and abusive.
