Empire of Lust (2015) – Storyline/Plot:

A brilliant general distinguishes himself by protecting the dynasty’s borders while keeping an eye on one of the sons of the king.

Kim Min-jae (Shin Ha-kyun), is a brilliant general who’s distinguished himself by protecting the borders of the recently established Joseon dynasty. He keeps a close eye on Yi Bang-won (Jang Hyuk), the fifth son of King Taejo (Son Byong-ho), whom he believes has ambitions of seizing the throne. Jin (Kang Ha-neul) is Kim Min-jae’s son and the King’s son-in-law. Due to his position as the King’s son-in-law, he is unable to take part in politics and only seeks out pleasure. Yi Bang-won was instrumental in helping his father overthrow the Goryeo dynasty and found the Joseon, but was passed over when Taejo chose his successor. Meanwhile, Kim Min-jae falls in love for the first time with a gisaeng named Ka-hee (Kang Han-na), whom he takes as his concubine, not realizing that she aims to carry out a vendetta against him.

TAGLINE: A bloody history behind the throne.

Like many a “Joseon Empire” historical action movie, this 2015 South Korean film is solidly anchored in sword violence. (To put it bluntly, there’s lots of blood and gore.) But the addition of rape scenes made it significantly more disturbing than your average TV K-drama “sageuk”, which (as of 2023) are always pristinely sanitized in romantic and/or sexual situations. This movie opens with an arty inter-splicing of a bloody battle and rather raw lovemaking, which may seem gratuitous to some, but provides a deft summary of the 2 faces of lust that fueled the rise of a 500 year dynasty. The directing and acting is top notch, especially from the two lead actors, noble hero Shin Ha-Kyun and psycho-villain Jang Hyuk (who rose to prominence in the iconic sageuk “The Slave Hunters”). Both of these action stars can actually act, and superb at packing a universe of emotion into a “100 yard stare”. This film is basically a love story and could have been improved with better couple chemistry and a more memorable OST. The k-drama TV series “My Country: The New Age”, also set in this era and with Jang Hyuk reprising his role as Bang Won, is cheesier/ less sophisticated than EoL, but it’s much more entertaining and more visually enticing. In summary, Empire of Lust is a film worth 2 hours of your time, but its depictions of extreme avarice and cruelty are not easy watching.
