Synopsis
“What a bizarre book!”
Chosun's most prestigious family, making his debut as an obscene novel writer!
For Yoon-seo (Han Seok-gyu), the son of a famous nobleman and known as the best writer of his time, power is futile to pursue, and factional fights are just futile.
Yoon-seo, who lived a boring yangban life, takes on a troubling case due to the conspiracy of the opposition, and in the midst of this, she encounters a 'promiscuous book' that she sees for the first time in her life at an old-fashioned book war, and feels an unknown excitement. Yoon-seo finally shows the courage to write an obscene novel…
"why… Is it possible with the human body structure?”
Combination of 文-武, 書-畵, perfect lewd breathing between the two yangbans!
Yoon-seo, who was publishing an obscene novel under the pen name of Chuwol-saek, asks Gwang-heon (Lee Beom-su), an archenemy of the family, who is notorious as an expert in heights and desires to become the number one, to draw illustrations in the novel. Gwang-heon, too, can't refuse the offer to raise his pulse, so he falls in love with Yoon-seo and creates an obscene novel. A beautiful and elegant style met a powerful painting, so it's a gold medal, a splendid point! The perfect lewd breathing of two people who forgot the gentleness of a yangban man creates the best work, and the work of the yangban duo is rapidly emerging as the most talked about work in Jangan…
“It can be said that it is the most problematic work in Jangan!”
The problematic writer Chu Wol-saek turns Joseon upside down!
The hotter the reaction to the 'heukgokbisa', which made the bodies of women in Jangan heated up, the hearts of Yoonseo and Gwangheon begin to beat vigorously and their blood starts to circulate. However, a great event awaited the two of them who are having the most exciting days of their lives…. In the Gujung Palace, the 'Black Grain Secret' has flowed into the hands of the beautiful woman Jeongbin (Kim Min-jung), who is favored by the king. How will the fate of Yoon-seo and Gwang-heon, who wrote the best problem work in Jangan, unfold?

In the Joseon Dynasty, when everything under the sky was closed under the name of 'law and morality', <Seosaeng of Obscenity> deals with the unconventional subject of 'the best noble family who fell in love with the creation of obscene novels'. Like the title, where 'obscenity' and 'seosaeng', which do not seem to fit together, collide, the movie unfolds the 'culture shock' experienced by a nobleman who found an unexpected talent in something completely unexpected.

Strange laughter _ “How the hell do you look at our family and ask such a question!”
The laughter that arises when the best scholars of the time encounter the dangerous and incompatible genre of 'obscene fiction' in <Seosaeng> is unpredictable and fresh.

Here, the lewd conversations that the decent yangbans exchange with sincerity and skill are humorous and ironic.

It is the intense drama in the second half that firmly supports the whole film with a pleasant laugh in <Spoiler of Obscenity>.

The relationship between each character that caused laughter in the beginning develops into a cause that deepens the conflict, and the main characters who get happiness pay the price and run towards the climax.

Modern Sense_ “I don’t know, in a few hundred years there may be more people like us!”
A modern sensibility that transcends time and background, going beyond the limits of the genre of historical drama, lives and breathes everywhere in <Seosaeng of Obscenity>. In spite of the status of being a concubine of the king, the obscene duo (Yunseo, Gwangheon) who conspires to write and distribute 'obscene novels' together over the difference between the status of a nobleman and a commoner, and the obscene Brothers (the royal family, the copywriter, the copywriter). In addition to various and modern human figures such as Jeong Bin, who has a dangerous love affair with his father-in-law, elements that exquisitely intersect with modern cultural codes such as 'bad man' and 'comment' generate unexpected sympathy and laughter.

The aesthetics of 'obscenity' that penetrates the entire film!
In the Joseon Dynasty, when everything was confined by laws and regulations, the most important keyword in the unconventional story of <Seosaeng>, in which yangbans write obscene novels, is 'obscenity'.

Codes of 'obscenity' are placed all over the space of <Seosaeng of Obscenity>. The secret room inside Yugijeon, which secretly distributes obscene novels, is the most representative space. In addition, the space recreated lewdly through thorough investigation in <Indecent Seosaeng>, such as Jeong-bin's (Kim Min-jung) residence in the old palace, the red light district where red lanterns ripple, the eunuch full of castrated desires, and the gisaeng room that spurts out desires without adding or subtracting.

With the participation of high-level experts, Gwangheon's obscene novel 'Heukgokbisa', with the best literary writer Yoon-seo of the time and a brave painting talent, is different from its explicit content, with delicate lines and luxurious colors that give the audience a new appreciation of another art genre. will provide an opportunity.
Appearance and invisibility, clothes that are different on the outside and inside
The lewdness is also revealed in the costumes of the main characters without exception. It is most clearly seen in Jung Bin (Kim Min-jung)'s costume, and the unconventional black hanbok she wears is made of transparent material, not just black. The flashy color at first glance under the stubborn color of black effectively expresses not only Jeongbin's character, but also the lewdness of <Naughty Seosaeng>. In addition to this, costumes with different color combinations on the outside and inside and textures that look different depending on the light convey a different feeling whenever the character moves, highlighting the secretiveness of the movie.
