Its story tells of a family of traditional Korean pansori singers trying to make a living in the modern world. The film was originally expected to only draw limited interest, and was released on only one screen in Seoul. At the height of its popularity, it was shown on only three screens at once in the entire city of over 10 million. Nevertheless it ended up breaking box-office records and became the first Korean film to draw over a million viewers in Seoul alone. When it was released, ''Sopyonjes success also increased interest in pansori among modern audiences. The film was acclaimed critically, both in South Korea and abroad, getting screened in Cannes Film Festival and winning six Grand Bell Awards and six Korean Film Critics' Awards. Im Kwon-taek also used pansori as a narrative tool in his later films ''Chunhyang'' (2000), based on the popular Korean story Chunhyangga, and ''Beyond the Years'' (2007), an informal sequel to ''Sopyonje''. ==Plot== In a ''jumak'' (a tavern) on a small pass called Soritjae of Boseong County, South Jeolla Province,〔http://www.jeonlado.com/v2/ch04.html?&number=7249〕 during the early 1960s, Dong-ho who is in his 30s, recalls his past as he is listening to a rendition of "pansori" sung by the jumak owner.〔http://100.empas.com/dicsearch/pentry.html?s=K&i=291896&v=43〕 Dong-ho and his sister were raised by the pansori singer Yu-bong, who treats them sternly and with a strict training regimen in his attempts to make serious artists of them as Yu-bong feels that a truly great pansori artist must suffer. Eventually Dong-ho runs away but his sister stays behind. Some critics have stated that this movie glorifies the father's patriarchal power as he seeks to limit his daughter's sexuality.〔(The Remasculinisation of Korean Cinema, by Kyung Kim )〕 However, most believe that the pansori singer is symbolic for (South) Korea, transcending a history of suffering to achieve greatness.〔http://english.ohmynews.com/articleview/article_view.asp?at_code=318917〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seopyeonje」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
