{"product_id":"duk-ki-kim-palisades-bad-guy-5023965343925","title":"PALISADES Bad Guy","description":"Controversial film by Korean director Kim Ki-duk about the twisted relationship between a college student-turned-prostitute and her mute gangland pimp. When Han-ki *(Jo Jae-Hyeon),* the silent but brutally violent leader of a gang in Seoul's red light district,* glimpses a pretty young student,* Sun-hwa *(Seo Won),* in a crowd,* he becomes instantly obsessed with her and kisses her without asking her permission in front of her boyfriend. Completely unapologetic,* he is beaten by the police for the assault,* but this doesn't stop him stalking her on a shopping trip with her boyfriend. When Sun-hwa gets caught stealing,* Han-ki seizes his opportunity to force her into prostiitution. He watches through a one-way mirror as she suffers excrutiating cruelty and abuse from a string of brutal clients,* and the film charts her decline into humiliation,* degradation and ultimate ruin. Whether the film depicts a poignant,* twisted love between the two very damaged central characters,* or an outrageously offensive glamourisation of gratuitous torture and abuse,* is an ongoing debate among feminists and critics.","brand":"PALISADES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53897637724502,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/duk-ki-kim-palisades-bad-guy-5023965343925","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
