PRE.GM have announced the Korean DVD release of 'The Housemaid' for the 18th September, 2010. Directed by Im Sang Soo, the film is a retelling of Kim Ki Young's 1960 classic that centres around a housemaid who goes looking for revenge after an affair with a wealthy husband goes horribly wrong.
Synopsis
Award-winning actress Jeon Do Yeon stars as poor divorcee Eun Yi, who gladly signs on to work as a nanny and housemaid for a wealthy, upper-crust family. In her naive eyes, the rich and handsome Hoon (Lee Jung Jae, Typhoon), his pregnant wife Hae Ra (Seo Woo, Paju), and adorable daughter Hae Ra (Ahn Seo Hyun) make the picture-perfect family. But that myth is soon shattered when the domineering Hoon finds his way to her bed. Their torrid affair upsets the balance of the household, unleashing a cruel power struggle as Hae Ra, her mother (Park Ji Young), and the head housekeeper (Yoon Yeo Jung) all answer with their own calculated measures.
