Actor Shin Hye-sun shows what she’s made of in Netflix’s "The Art of Sarah".
Since its Feb. 13 premiere, Netflix’s series "The Art of Sarah" has been drawing a hot response from global viewers. The show explores desire, choice, and the duality of human nature through a character who blurs the line between what’s real and what’s fake. In it, Shin Hye-sun delivers a standout turn as the mysterious “Sara Kim,” a woman with many faces.
Shin builds out the character’s layers with precision, making “Sara Kim” feel fully convincing. She channels cool, calculating charisma and steady composure, while hinting at the anxiety hiding underneath. Tight close-ups highlight the nuance―minute shifts in her gaze, a faint tremble at the corner of her mouth―pulling viewers deeper into the moment.
Her face-offs with Lee Jun-hyuk (as Park Mu-gyeong) are especially gripping. Clear diction and unwavering presence let her command the screen. With restrained delivery and subtle tonal shifts, she ratchets up the tension. In crisis beats, elongated breaths reveal the character’s fear, adding real depth.
Above all, Shin takes on multiple roles in this project―and distinguishes each persona with sharp, deliberate choices. Her meticulous variations are so convincing, they drive the narrative and make you forget you’re watching the same person.
After proving her presence across romance, human drama, and comedy, Shin Hye-sun expands her filmography again with "The Art of Sarah". With every project, she unveils a new side―cementing her status as a go-to, trust-worthy lead to watch.
