Jordan curve; is the inside mapped to the inside by a homeomorphism?
$begingroup$
Suppose that
$gamma:[0,1]to mathbb{R}^2$ is a closed simple curve;
$U$ is an open set of $mathbb{R}^2$ that contains both the image $|gamma|$ of $gamma$ and the inside $D$ of $gamma$;
$f:Uto V$ is a homeomorphism, where $V$ is an open set of $mathbb{R}^2$.
Is it true that the inside of the closed simple curve $fcircgamma $
is $f(D)$?
Intuitively, it seems true. But I can neither prove nor disprove it. Can anyone answer this question? Any help is appreciated.

$Usetminus |gamma|$ may have several components $C$ (it's not given
that $U$ is connected), but only one with the property that $Ccup|gamma|$ is
compact, namely $C=D$. The image of $D$ under $f$ must have the same property
with respect to $V$, so $f(D)$ is the interior of $f(gamma)$.

Thanks for your answer. How can we be sure that there is only one component of $U-|gamma|$ with the property stated in your answer?
