Priscilla Meirelles goes cryptic as she asks: ‘What to call a female that entertains a married man?’
The actress had to learn the complex choreography required for an action thriller, including for a scene in which Boksoon uses a marker pen as her only weapon. “Taking on a range of characters, often dealing with complex emotions and feelings, like peeling the layers of an onion, Jeon Do-yeon’s performances get to the core of what drives her characters,” Jason Bechervaise, a Seoul-based film scholar, told AFP.
It is also the first time the 50-year-old actress has taken on a lead role in an action movie, following the recent historic Oscar win for Michelle Yeoh in a female-led action film. Spending three decades at the top of South Korea’s notoriously competitive entertainment industry is also “somewhat easier than raising a child,” Jeon said.
