About This DVD
Impending death is often the impetus for romance in Korean films, but Maundy
Thursday is a bit different from the rest. Based on Kong Ji Young's famous
novel, Maundy Thursday is both a tender love story and a sensitive look at the
capital punishment system. The title refers to Holy Thursday, or the feast day
before Easter commemorating the Last Supper, and the film makes use of the
stolen time between uncertain life and certain death to present an unlikely
romance about a suicidal young woman and a death row prisoner. Director Song Hye
Sung (Failan) and actors Kang Dong Won (Duelist) and Lee Na Young (Who are You?)
paint a delicate portrait with compelling characters, subtle political
undertones, and commentary on the value of life.
University lecturer Yu Jung (Lee Na Young) does not trust her surroundings and
does not believe in love. Troubled by a traumatic past, she has attempted
suicide many times. At her aunt's urging, she reluctantly enters therapy and
meets convicted murderer and death row prisoner Yun Su (Kang Dong Won). Drawn to
each other, two people with no will to live find a new motivation for life: a
meeting every Thursday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
