The Handmaiden (2016)

Both take place during Japanese occupied South Korea. Both are very similar..........................................

Same Male actor on both movie. Both have very brave sex scenes. Both movies were very intrigue. Good acting and unexpected ending.

If you like bizarre twists and themes about hidden identity, then this is for you. Other than that not much else is the same.

Love triangle. Many plot twist. Two girls friendship turn into more deeper. Two girls relationship got stronger and tighter. Then what happen?

Love triangle. Two girls relationship grow stronger. Unexpected plot twist. Story will make you use some brain cells. Lesbian? Bisexual?

Both have a stunning chemistry between the women and I also noticed that the pairs actresses from TPOTW (Two Moons I pertain to Moon Chae Won and Moon Geun Young) and The Handmaiden (Two Kims pertains to Kim Min Hee and Kim Tae Ri). They have similar surnames which I find it cute.

However, TPOTW has a tragic ending that's why I wished and waited for 8 years for a lesbian movie that defies South Korean stigma against LGBTQ.

Lust, Caution reminded me of The Handmaiden. Both play in countries under Japanese occupation and between the 1930-40s. Both are for mature audiences and include nudity and sexual content. The movies are based on stories, Lust, Caution on a short story, The Handmaiden on a novel.

Both are GL
GAP is definitely more goofy than The Handmaiden but both are good in their own ways

same asian lesbian girls who had a sweet happy ending but not as much as plot twisted as the handmaiden.

Both women are saving each other against the people around them and they trust one another. It also shows the social class differences of these women but despite of this they learn to love one another.

same asian lesbian girls who had a sweet happy ending but not as much as plot twisted as the handmaiden.

Similarly, hormones season 2 and 3 of "koi and dao" couple an asian lesbian themed who had a sweet happy ending but not as much as plot twisted as the handmaiden.
