Sook-Hee will serve as Hidekos handmaiden and convince her to fall in love with the Count.
However, the closer Sook-Hee and Hideko become, the harder it becomes for Sook-Hee to betray Hideko.
Thats part of what makes the sex scenes so troubling.
Its thoughtful and complex while also being immensely entertaining, funny, dark, and disturbing.
