130529 In early June, Song Hye Kyo departs for China to work in John Woo’s film Shengsilian



According to a May 29 report, top star Song Hye Kyo is set to depart for China at the beginning of June to act in the new John Woo movie Shengsilian. Shengsilian is a masterpiece that the great master of Chinese movies, director John Woo, and producer Terence Chang have been working on for about four years. It is a melodramatic epic about love and pain in a period of turbulence in modern China of the 1930s.

Song Hye Kyo was at a press conference for the film together with John Woo at the Cannes Film Festival on 2008, but the project foundered because of a combination of circumstances. Giving it another shot, Woo is finally bringing the project to fruition.

Song Hye Kyo has had other opportunities to work with world-class directors. She appeared in director Wong Karwai’s The Grandmaster, which was the opening film of the 63th Berlin International Film Festival.

To prepare for her new role, Song is taking piano lessons and practicing Chinese with less than a month left before she begins work in China. Shengsilian is to start filming in earnest from early July. Song has not had a break since finishing her work in the SBS drama series That Winter, The Wind Blows,, in which she played a blind woman. In Shengsilian, Song is cast as a strong woman who was born into a wealthy family of Shanghai and grows up in very difficult times. Song Hye Kyo continues to try new challenges, traveling back and forth between Korea and China.
