Korean Actress Expands Her Stage

Actress HA Ji-won of The Phone (2002), Haeundae (2009) and most recently Chronicle of a Blood Merchant is considering boarding a Korean-Chinese co-production. According to her management company Sun and Moon Entertainment on March 19th, HA is in the last stages of signing her role in Mok-soom Geun Yeon-ae (w/t).

Mok-soom Geun Yeon-ae which means ‘love to die for’ is a love story about a couple. This is the directorial debut of SONG Min-gyu, who previously produced My Way (2011).

Taiwanese actor CHEN Bolin will be playing the male lead. CHEN has made a name for himself through various TV dramas and romantic comedy films. He had also starred in 20! Once Again last year which is the remake of Korea’s Miss Granny.

HA has been broadening her stage internationally since she signed with United Talent Agency (UTA) in 2013. She is one of the few from Korea who have stepped into Hollywood. Although she hasn’t yet found the right role in USA, her involvement with Mok-soom Geun Yeon-ae and her partnership with UTA leads many to anticipate a bright and global future for the actress. She is the first Korean to have joined the agency.
