Sixty-five-year-old Soyeong sells her body to old men in the Jongro area. She is popular among the other Bacchus ladies when her reputation as a woman who is ”fatally good at sex” goes viral among the old men. She lives with her transgender landlady and a disabled man, and she takes in a suddenly orphaned boy, whose mother was arrested. She used to work as a foreigner’s whore who barely made ends meet, but she can’t ignore people in wretched conditions. She is asked to kill one of her customers (himself), and suffering a stroke after being torn between guilt and sympathy, she genuinely kills him. She turns from a woman who is fatally good at it into a woman who killed. In the lead role, Yoon Yeojeong portrays the old lady’s dignity in maintaining a noble spirit despite her occupation. The Bacchus Lady is a film about someone who could be a role model for her sympathy for others, and her bravery against prejudice, although she does less than dignified work for a living.
