Overview:	In the tradition of the epic drama "Raise The Red Lantern", "Chunhyang" is a beautiful tale of forbidden passion and devotion unfolding in the spectacular settings of 18th Century Korea. Mongryong, the privileged son of a Governor falls in love with Chunhyang, the beautiful daughter of a proud former courtesan. Inseparable, the two lovers marry, but must keep their marriage a secret, for fear of reprisal. Soon, Mongryong is ordered to Seoul to finish his education, reluctantly leaving his new bride behind but promising that he will send for her. As time passes, however, a new, vindictive Governor is appointed in the province where Chunyang lives. This new Governor pursues Chunyang and when she refuses his advances, she is imprisoned and sentenced to death. Chunyang's only hope for being saved is her continued faith in the promise Mongryong once made to her. A gorgeous and spirited film, "Chunhyang" is a classic tale of lovers torn apart by two different worlds, and the power and ultimate triumph of love over adversity.
