The Picture Bride
Could you marry a man youve never met? Three Korean women in 1918 make a life-changing journey to Hawaii, where they will marry, having seen only photographs of their intended husbands.
Different fates await each of these women. Hong-ju, who dreams of a marriage of natural love, meets a man who looks twenty years older than his photograph; Song-hwa, who wants to escape from her life of ridicule as the granddaughter of a shaman, meets a lazy drunkard. And then theres Willow, whose 26-year-old groom, Taewan, looks just like his image
Real life doesnt always resemble a picture, but theres no going back. And while things dont turn out quite as theyd hoped, even for Willow, they do find something that makes their journey worthwhile each other.
