I sincerely hope another beautiful (and highly acclaimed) film for Son Ye-Jin soon, this one like the two last films she did were disappointing to me, I liked the fact that she showed other side of her personality in "Open City" & "Art of Seduction" but the qualities of the movies were largely inferior to what she made before, also the talent involved weren't the same. But I'm under no illusion, it's almost impossible for a korean actress to maintain a big screen career to high level, no matter how good they are, 80% of them are pulled back into the shadows after few years of fame, the Korean system is hard, a lot of pressure & stress, producters and directors almost always want fresh & news faces. I can't count how many times I came here just after seeing a Korean film to see in what others films the fine and radiant lead actress has acted and to be disappointed to read that it was the only film (or one) of her 'career'. I love Son Ye-Jin, I consider her to be the Audrey Hepburn of Asia (and there is no other actress working today in the world that I would compare to the legendary Audrey Hepburn in terms of elegance, class, grace & innoncence.) Son Ye-Jin isn't the greatest actress of the world, neither was Audrey Hepburn but the mix of all the qualities I have mentionned as well as truly fine acting abilities make them uniques. I would love to see Son Ye-Jin work with great Korean directors like Park Chan-wook, Kim Ki-duk, Lee Chang-dong or in another film of the master Im Kwon-taek, she deserve it ! I am a little worried about her future on big screen (I don't watch dramas) She's here since more than 8 years which is already a little miracle, let the miracle continue !
