Whoa! SEE THIS. This is one of the few movies that are able to mix, perhaps, a bit of fiction regarding interpersonal relationships and present them within genuine historical events. It is great in that it really brings to life what life was/might have been during a specific historical event as opposed to reading one or two lines within a history book.
A movie like this is something that would do really well in a history class because it brings to life the strangeness of institutions and their effect on the people who put them in power and then have to suffer under them. One of the very first movies I reviewed on this blog was 'Tae Guk Gi' and this would have been an awesome sequel! You must see this.
The acting was really good, the directing was awesome, the script rocked, and the cinematography was just amazing. Too, the music was key. It neither got in the way and one song that was sung, played, etc. frequently only strengthened the movie's message.
