Jung-woo HaPlots(1)
In the winter of 1953, the simple worker Huh Sam-kwan (Ha Jung-woo) falls in love with beautiful Ok-ran (Ha Ji-won). But at a time, when people are barely able to feed themselfs, Sam-kwan has to sell his own blood so he can ask for Ok-ran‘shand. 11 years later, they have three sons together, but a rumor spreads around the village that Sam kwan’s oldest son may not be his true son at all. Chronicle of a Blood Merchant is an adaptation of the bestselling Chinese novel of the same name and her author Yu Hua soon became a prominent figure in Chinese literature. Director and lead actor Ha Jung-woo transfers his interpretation of the story into post-war Korea, where usually seriously conceived topics of blood donation and paternity he serves with absurd humor contrasting with the village life.
