It's ultimately wearing, yet somehow memorable.

Rating: 3/5 --
It feels like Im intended this as a moral fable. He should have played for laughs; material this blunt works best as satire.

Rating: 3/5 --
It is a strange slo-mo farce, well directed, highly sexualised - shallow, but sleek.

Im Sangsoo seems too much in love with what he seeks to condemn for The Taste Of Money to have real bite.

Rating: 3/5 --
Sex, death, greed, corruption: they're all here in handsomely mounted and highly polished cases. Taste the money - smell the glove.

Rating: 1/5 --
This grotesque, luxe white-collar chamber drama from South Korea is often laughably bad.

Little White Lies
Playing a key role in establishing the gilded cage that imprisons everybody, villains included, is the cold luxury of Kim Young-hee and Kim June’s sets, caressed by Kim Sung-kyu’s sumptuous lensing in grays and blacks.

Product Description:
An ambitious Korean secretary becomes a sexual pawn in the lives of his wealthy employers, experiencing an acute crisis of conscience after falling for their gorgeous daughter in writer/director Im Sang-soo's follow-up to the critically acclaimed 2010 drama THE HOUSEMAID. Young-jak works directly for Yoon -- the influential president of a major conglomerate. Young-jak has designs on owning his own company some day when, enraged at having caught her husband sleeping with their Filipino maid, Yoon's wife Madame Baek targets him for seduction. Meanwhile, Young-jak finds himself irresistibly attracted to Yoon and Madame Baek's virtuous young daughter. But to pursue her would mean giving up on his dreams of achieving unlimited wealth -- a sacrifice Young-jak isn't sure he's willing to make as he climbs the ladder to success.
