'''''Chunhyang''''' is a movie directed by famous Korean filmmaker Im Kwon-taek (whose following movie was ''[[Drunk On Women and Poetry]]'') and released in 2000. It is based on a ''pansori'', a type of traditional Korean performance that involves a storyteller reciting and singing a narrative to the sound of a drum. The movie depicts both the pansori itself being performed, and the story being told.
 
Mongryong, the son of a newly installed provincial governor, sees the beautiful Chunhyang, the daughter of a former courtesan, and falls in love with her. He arranges to meet her, and to reassure her about the sincerity of his sentiments, agrees to marry her in a secret ceremony. After a period of blissful if clandestine connubial life, Mongryong must leave for Seoul in order to join the ranks of the civil service.
