Yes! YES! Oh Goodness yes!

Dear Readers, the OST is on for pre-order and before you even read further, Go OUT RIGHT NOW AND GET UR COPY!!

Now that the important bit is out of the way, let’s talk about this! Like, I was so not expecting there to be two versions of this, let alone them to be both Hideko and Sook-hee!! That took me by surprise! The power of yuri dear Readers! Is it safe to call this the ship of the century? Probably but this movie is receiving much love than never before seen for a yuri movie and all that even before most foreign countries have gotten their chance to see it in cinemas!

I was a little disappointed to find that they did not use that leaked cover from before but once I saw the actual products that feeling is history! I will take this two-faced versions over that single one! The fact that we get Hideko version, that has Sook-hee inside it!!! And meanwhile the Sook-hee version also has Hideko inside it!!! Like, what even!!!!!!

Ah but that is not all! If you pre-order your copy you get a chance to receive a poster picked at random among these awesome posters…

Like, think of me how you will but I am so this movie’s bitch now! I am of course looking to get the Hideko/Sook-hee posters and in order to increase my chances I have ordered from both GMarket and YesAsia. Cost me just over 70 for the GMarket and about 90 for the YeAsia because I decided to do separate orders for the Sook-hee version and the Hideko version. Why? because you never know how sneaky those people are! They might give you one poster when you bought two CDs and later tell you it was a poster for every purchase! I am so not getting into that shit so I decided to dodge that bullet before the trigger was pulled!

Seriously, how awesome is this?! I so forgive the guys in charge for delaying the release of this soundtrack because now I know why! They were doing their very best to extend the power of Hideko and Sook-hee’s love all the way into the Soundtrack! Like, how much better could they have done? Seriously!!

If they do this as well for the Bluray’s, I am so going to Korea and kissing that holy ground! And with that said, time to save up for that inevitable holiday! Like, seriously, what a movie this is! Oh yeah, the script-book is also out for order and I bought that with my purchase from GMarket. It is in Korean and thus won’t understand shit but I know, I am pretty sure 100% that someone out there will translate it! If you are listening you awesome Korean Anon, if you want scans, you know where to get them, you hear?

This movie dear Readers! first they played with the titles by having the titles of the movie around the world be either about Hideko or Sook-hee. Like for example the Korean and French titles refer to Hideko – ‘Miss’ while the English title refers to Sook-hee – ‘The Handmaiden’! Now they go and do this for the Soundtrack, like, how not to lose it!!

Now to wait for the good to arrive (Officially releasing on the 26th according to YesAsia)! Way to go Ahgassi, who knew waiting for the Soundtrack too would be as torturous and nerve-wracking! because now I have to pray that I get at least one Sook-hee/Hideko poster among the four!

Sigh

Anyway, jump over for the posters in HQ…

[Ahgassi] A Huge Round of Applause!!

For Winning Best Actress and Best Female New Comer of the Year!
fuckin excellent good awesome clap

Like, I don’t mean to brag but I so saw that coming!

Kim Min-hee was the one who won Best Actress and Tae-ri Best New Comer, in case anyone was remotely confused.

Sadly, Park Chan-wook couldn’t join them in winnings as best Director (That went to the director of The Wailing). The Handmaiden already snabbed the Cannes Prize for Technical Design (A first in its category I hear) and I am pretty sure the Music Score will win something too.

Could the movie win Best Movie sometime this year or next? I am sure it will, even though Park Chan-wook not taking Best Director is kind of discouraging. But really, what we have got is cause for much celebration! An R rated movie taking awards with both our lead Ladies winning is nothing to sneeze at!!

I haven’t felt this great since the 2008 CBS Drama awards when Moon Geun-young and Moon Chae-won shocked the world by winning Best Couple for their roles as Yun-bok and  Jeong-hyang in my favourite drama of all time – Painter of The Wind!

Now then, to wait for the Director’s Cut, that should be out by the end of today, if all goes according to plan! Not that I am ready for it. I still can’t handle the ‘normal’ version. There is no way I can handle the Director’s Cut!

Any way, night!

[Ahgassi] That Soundtrack Tho!!

ost

We have been focusing on the yuri aspect of this all this time but haven’t really gotten around to appreciating the other great things about this movie, like designs, cinematography or even the music!!! The music for this movie, dear Lord!

Okay Korea I am disappoint! Where is the soundtrack for this movie!?! Soundtracks are supposed to be released on the day the movie hits cinemas and The Handmaiden has ben out for two months already now and yet no CDs listed anywhere! What gives?!!

Thankfully the internet exists and where there is internet there is everything so of course we have some songs of the soundtrack either leaked or re-created by the hard-core fans of this movie.

I have gotten a chance to come across a few and I love them all so much. The favourite of course being the theme that plays during ‘The Escape’. This is titled ‘Teaser2’ and has another, clearer variation in  ‘Teaser4’. It is so soothing to the point of reducing me to tears. it caresses my very soul! I love it so much.

The next is the one you have probably heard in that official video by Gain and Min-seo. Actually if play-count was the basis of favourite this song would be my favourite because the play count on both my phone and PC amounts in the hundreds already. Once I play it I can’t help rewinding right away. it is just soo good!!

Where is my full soundtrack South Korea?!! I want it!! I want to listen to the other great tracks in this movie. Come on, do it! This is already looking to take over Whispering Corridors 4 ~ Voice Letter’s OST as my favourite yuri Soundtrack.

[Ahgassi] To Our Friends in the US

Be happy, be very happy. You are getting to watch The Handmaiden in theatres from October 14th thanks to magnolia studios. You will get to experience this movie in all its 100% quality glory with the best English subtitles possible so I am feeling kind of jealous here. You better go and watch it and let us know what the big screen experience feels like.

The official trailer is out (still the stylish one) and to those who have managed to resist watching the online leaks, a word of warning before going into the cinema…

Buy very little popcorn because as soon as the movie starts, you will probably forget about it. Also make sure that you are ‘dressed for the occasion’ otherwise…hehehe…
