Beongeoli Sam-ryong is a 1929 Korean film written, directed, produced by and starring Na Woon-gyu (1902–1937). It premiered at the Choseon Theater in January 1929. It was the fifth film produced by Na Woon-gyu Productions, and its failure with the public was blamed for the bankruptcy of that company.
The plot concerns Sam-ryong, a deaf servant who is in love with his landlord's daughter-in-law. Critics praised the final scene of the film, in which the house burns, as a work of pioneering and experimental film making.
In 1964 Shin Sang-ok directed Deaf Sam-yong, a remake of Beongeoli Sam-ryong which won the Grand Bell (Daejong) Award in 1965 for Best Picture.http://imdb.com/title/tt0388760/awards
