An Experience to Die For: Be a Wicked Woman, also known as Angel, Become an Evil Woman,[2] is a 1990 South Korean film premiered in 2021,[3] [4] [5] [6] directed by Kim Ki-young.

Release
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]
