PARK Chan-wook Chooses KIM Ok-bin

by Goran, February 15, 2008 1:11 PM

PARK Chan-wook’s next film, BAKJWI [박쥐], finally has a leading lady: KIM Ok-bin [김옥빈]. Fresh off from the shoot of a period action-comedy GIBANG RIOT IN 1724 [1724 기방난동사건], KIM Ok-bin's role in BAKJWI will require her to do a number of revealing sex scenes - she will portray a married woman that ends up having an affair with SONG Kang-ho's man-turned-vampire character.

KIM is a rising young actress, previously known for her roles in E. J-Yong's DASEPO NAUGHTY GIRLS [다세포소녀] (where she played "poor girl"), AHN Sang-hoon's horror ARANG [아랑], and a number of TV dramas.

BAKJWI is scheduled to start filming in March.

Off the top of my head, I think she was also in Voice Letter. She is HOT and it will be great to see her in the flesh...no pun intended :D

I fully approve the decision.

Well played Mr. Park. Well played.

I liked her performance in "Dasepo Naughty Girls" a lot, and I do mean performance not appearance (although there is certainly nothing wrong with her looks!).

Hope Park Chan-Wook will keep it tasteful..
Who am I kidding? I hope he shocks the shit out of me!

I did like her general appearance and vibe in Daespo Naughty Girls, even if that film was ultimately a failure on most levels.

great news! I've had ARANG sitting on my shelf for weeks and still haven't watched it. I will definitely watch it this weekend now to see how she is as an actress. If she acts anywhere as good as she looks then alriiight

I'd like to make love to her in a waterbed....

Lucky 'poor' at least it had the chance to crawl on her back.

Approval.

I was getting pretty sick of seeing the same number of actors/actresses in PCW's films. (Ignoring Kang)

She has such a cute smile.
My mind is full of filth right now.
The things I could do to that mouth.
