As a partner for Bae Yong Jun (32), which has been an issue of burning concern in the film industry for the past several months, Sohn Yejin (22) was decided in the end.
Son Ye Jin was cast as a leading actress in the new film by Director Heo Jinho, ‘Oe chool’ (Produced by Blue Storm) in which Bae Yong Jun has been cast as a leading actor. Hence leading actor in ‘Winter Sonata’ and leading actress in ‘Summer Fragrance’, the dramas which are at the summit of the Korean Current boom, came to work in harmony.
The Blue Storm, producer of the ‘Oe chool’ announced in the morning on 23rd, “Son Ye Jin was finally decided as the leading actor in ‘Oe chool’.”
The ‘Oe chool’, having experienced difficulties in looking for the leading actress until now, thus is able to crank-in in the middle of January next year.
In the ‘Oe chool’, Son Ye Jin will act a woman who would fall into a dangerous love with Bae Yong Jun, going beyond the pure & innocent and pitiful image she had until now.
The ‘Oe chool’, the thrid film by Director Heo Jinho, is a melodramatic movie with story of man and woman, being faced by the miserable reality of betrayal of love, are gradually falling into a dangerous love. Son Ye Jin will play a character of a junior high school teacher, Seoyoung, who will fall in love with Bae Yong Jun (Insoo character).
Son Ye Jin & Bae Yong Jun go to a rural hospital at a news that spouse of each of them suffered from an traffic accident. However, there they came to know the fact that husband and wife of each were in the illicit relationship.
With her husband in coma, Son Ye Jin will share pitiful sympathy each other as fellow sufferers with BYJ, who are also in the same situation, and then gradually fall in a fatal love.
Son Ye Jin, saying “I rather have more desire because the emotion and character are the ones I have not personally felt until now. I really wanted to work with Director Heo Jinho, who has outstanding directing capability and puts in beautiful visual image”, showed her expectation and her determination toward the film.
The Director Heo told, “Son Ye Jin is an actress who hides a feeling of mature woman in her pure & innocent and lively appearance of 20-ish years old. I thought that such charm of her would be most suitable to the character of Seoyoung in ‘Oe chool’.”
Son Ye Jin, who has clearly inscribed 3 letters of her name in Korean film industry through ‘Love Novel’, ‘Classic’, “Demonstration to keep first love’, etc. was recently crowned as ‘Queen of Melodramas’ through ‘Eraser in my brain’ she co-acted with Jeong Wooseong.
