Park Chan-wook finds a leading lady

category: news, foreign

Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance) finds a leading lady for his next film "BAKJWI". KIM Ok-bin has agreed to do the role which will require a number of explicit sex scenes. Park was having trouble finding someone willing to play the part because of this (see 5 posts below for the original post). She will play a married woman who has an affair with a man turned vampire. Haven't seen any of her previous films (although i've had the horror ARANG in which she stars sitting on my shelf for weeks) but if she acts half as good as she looks then I think we'll be ok.

Production to begin in March.
