Kim So-yeon was one of the original cast members of IRIS and returned to the franchise for a cameo in Athena, so it’s no surprise to hear she’s coming back again for IRIS 2. She’ll have played the same character across all three series — Kim Sun-hwa, the North Korean spy who (Athena spoiler?) then... More »

Movie Review: Gabi (Coffee)
by | October 14, 2012 | 33 Comments
There is one thing that pulled me into watching this film, and that one thing delivered. In this quiet conspiracy thriller, Kim So Yeon battles her conscience as a spy who’s ordered to assassinate Emperor Gojong in the late 1890s. Also starring Joo Jin Mo and Yoo Sun, this film was certainly not what I expected in more ways... More »

Now why don’t I look like that when I wear my drummer-boy-meets-nutcracker-romper with a train? It must be the beret. Or I’m shakin’ my tailfeather wrong. That must be it.

Coffee’s “special poster” and additional trailer
by | February 26, 2012 | 52 Comments

They should’ve made that the main poster… although I suppose they’ve all been strong, and eye-catching in their own ways. This one provides a... More »

She’s working a couple of those skills in a new photo shoot for Arena Homme, which happens to coincide with her upcoming film Coffee, the spy-thriller set in the... More »
