This study is on the movies which deal with married women's prohibited loves and the representation styles. The represented styles of women's sexuality and marriage and family system say about the Korean society in nowadays. Of course, the movies express more sensationally and more progressively than real society. <Marriage, is mad deed> shows a ridicule on the monogamy and old marriage system and <Birth of family> chooses not blood relation but intimate human relations. <Secret love> shoss the extreme expression of women's sexuality. <A good lawyer's wife> shows breaking of family. Eventually in Korean society, family system may break away and reorganize as we saw in the movies. Therefore the family system in the future must changed into democratic relation between members to satisfy the emotional and personal desire.
