Actress Song Hye Kyo revealed how pressured she felt about her next project following the huge success of "The Glory."
On December 16, Song Hye Kyo attended the press conference for her upcoming movie "Dark Nuns," alongside director Kwon Hyuk-jae, actress Jeon Yeo Been, actors Lee Jin Uk, and Moon Woo-jin.
During the press conference, Song Hye Kyo revealed why she chose "Dark Nuns" as her next project after Netflix's original series "The Glory."
Song Hye Kyo said, "I was curious myself about which project I would choose next. After 'The Glory' received so much love, I felt quite a bit of pressure about what my next work should be."
She shared, "I feel like 'Dark Nuns' came to me by fate. After working on something like 'The Glory,' I found that kind of genre really enjoyable. Since then, I think I've started gravitating more toward strong genre projects when reading scripts."
She went on to say, "That's how I ended up choosing 'Dark Nuns.' I felt excited, wondering if it might show a new side of me."
When asked about being called an "intense genre queen," she responded with a chuckle, "I'll work hard to live up to that title in the future."
"Dark Nuns" is a film that tells the story of people who engage in a forbidden ritual to save a boy possessed by a powerful evil spirit.
The film is scheduled to be released on January 24.
