About Obscene Scholar
Park Yong-joo is the Joseon time's greatest playboy and he messes with the wrong woman. His life is in danger so he runs, begging the heavens for a life of freedom. Surprisingly, he time-slips to the 21st Century. There, Yong-joo meets two women who is possibly worse than him and he thinks he's finally in a world of freedom. He spends the most pleasurable time with the women but he soon realizes that it's not all pleasure. "What is this for?" "For obscene heaven!"
Directed by Choi Woo-seong, Obscene Scholar leans on a strong ensemble — Kim Yeong-joon, Oh Joo-ha, Chae Won — 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 romance titles of 2016.
