A Flower in Hell (Korean: 지옥화; Hanja: 地獄花; RR: Jiokhwa) is a 1958 South Korean film directed by Shin Sang-ok.[3] For her performance in the film, Shin's wife, Choi Eun-hee was given the Best Actress award at the 2nd Buil Film Awards.[4] During the Korean War, director Shin Sang-ok had shared an apartment with a prostitute in order to live more comfortably rather than sharing a one-room evacuation apartment with several families, giving him insight in the subject of the film.
