About Yeong-ja's Heydays
Chang-su recalls the girl whom he loved before he entered the military. At that time she had been working as a housemaid. They meet again years later at a police station and the girl, Yeong-ja reveals that she quit her job after being raped by the son of her employer. Her life got steadily worse until finally she lost an arm in a car accident and had to work as a prostitute to pay for an artificial limb.
Directed by Kim Ho-sun, Yeong-ja's Heydays leans on a strong ensemble — Song Jae-ho, Yeom Bok-sun, Do Kum-bong — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1975.
