Two women with unfaithful husbands make a deal to kill each other's husbands.[7]
Release edit
Produced in 1990, Kim was so disappointed with the outcome that he chose not to release it. The film was submitted to the censors twice — once in 1990 and again in 1995, under the new title 죽어도 좋은 경혐 (Jukeodo joeun gyeonghuom) — but was not screened for the public until the 1998 Busan International Film Festival, following Kim's untimely death in a house fire.[8]
