"The Handmaiden" (2016) is a South Korean psychological thriller film directed by Park Chan-wook, based on the 2009 Japanese novel "The Puppet Master" by Bunmi Laditan. The film stars Kim Tae-ri and Kim Do-hee in the lead roles.

  • Part I (The Con): Introduces Sook-hee, a young pickpocket recruited by a con man calling himself "Count Fujiwara" to become the maid of Lady Hideko, a reclusive Japanese heiress living in an isolated mansion. The Count’s plan is to marry Hideko, declare her insane, and steal her fortune. Sook-hee’s assignment is to gain Hideko’s trust and facilitate the scam.
  • Part II (The Intimate Confidante): Recasts the same events from Hideko’s point of view, revealing secrets withheld earlier — including Hideko’s traumatic upbringing under her aunt’s manipulative control, the “library” where men are obliged to read erotic literature to her, and the depth of the bond that develops between Hideko and Sook-hee. This section reframes the relationship as reciprocal and intimate rather than one-sided manipulation.
  • Part III (The Reversal): The final section follows a third perspective, detailing the aftermath and the pair’s attempts to outmaneuver both the Count and Hideko’s cruel aunt. Here the film moves into thriller territory with escape, cunning, and a measure of poetic justice.
