사랑•(Sarang)
사랑(Sarang) or A Love is the new Joo Jin Mo film. You’ve seen him in the horribly overrated 200 Pound Beauty. This film, from director Kwak Jeong Taek, is about an undying love between two people. It starts with In Ho as a teenage boy falling in love with Mi Ju, through a series of events he ends up going to jail to protect her from a gangster. Years later he works for big time executive and discovers that Mi Ju is this executives lover. They still love each other…and that is the drama of the movie.
Why should you see it? Joo Jin Mo and the simplistic, beautiful and what hancinema calls, Shakespearean themes of the film.
Joo Jin Mo literally begged for this role. He wasn’t even considered for the part but he was so in love with the script that he told his agent: “If I don’t get this part I’ll kill myself!” Somehow, after a lot of trouble he got the part. And he is getting great reviews for his role in the film, which also stars Park Si Yeon.
Look forward to seeing him in 사랑
