Moon So-ri, an award-winning Korean actress, was single when she joined the cast for “Sa-kwa,” a movie about relationships, marriage and reunion.
While the release date for the film, directed by Kang Yi-kwon, was put back again and again, Moon got married and her perspective about the movie also changed.
Moon expressed her special feelings about the film when she joined the press screening of “Sa-kwa” in Seoul on Wednesday.
“It’s overwhelming,” Moon said. “There are so many good memories and stories about this movie, but I felt a sense of helplessness when the release got delayed.”
Moon said the much-awaited movie would bring back the younger image she had in her debut film “Peppermint Candy” (2000). “The image in ‘Sa-kwa’ is different from how I am today, and I felt as if I was watching myself from the days when I was in ‘Peppermint Candy.’ I was certainly not sophisticated back then,” Moon said.
“Sa-kwa,” whose Korean title can be interpreted as either “apology” or “apple,” was originally scheduled to hit theaters in the spring of 2005, but instead entered a three-year period of neglect.
