Though she is constantly surrounded by an entourage of aristocratic men showering her with gifts and admiration, Jin Yi lives a solitary life of tragic isolation. She finds herself traveling a bumpy road, faced with a dilemma that will alter her destiny forever.

There have been various screen interpretations of Hwang Jin Yi's life, including Bae Chang Ho's 1986 film and the 2006 KBS drama starring Ha Ji Won, but this version by Jang Yoon Hyun (The Contact) strikes a more sobering tone - focusing more on the character's internal struggles. There is no arguing that Song Hye Kyo is loved by many fans around the world, and she takes a huge leap in her career to play a femme fatale that departs greatly from her previous image. Having clearly come into her own as an actress, she successfully captures the character in her inimitable style. Beyond Song Hye Kyo's impeccable beauty, the film is accentuated by a variety of beautiful Joseon era costumes and the picturesque surroundings of the Geumgang Mountains, situated in North Korea.
