'The Art of Sarah': Shin Hye-sun Teases a Dramatic Acting Shift in Netflix Mystery Thriller

Actor Shin Hye-sun is set for another transformation with the Netflix series ‘The Art of Sarah’.

‘The Art of Sarah’ is a mystery thriller that follows Sara Kim (played by Shin Hye-sun), a woman who wants to become a luxury icon even if it’s built on a lie, and Mu-gyeong (played by Lee Jun-hyuk), the detective chasing her desires. The series digs into clashing memories, multiple lives bound to one name, and the blurred line between truth and falsehood―already building anticipation before its debut.

Sara Kim is an enigma―her name, age, background, and education are all hidden. One day, she appears out of nowhere and captivates everyone. As the head of the ultra-luxury brand, which targets the top 0.1%, she lives a dazzling life while concealing another face and another past. The deeper the story goes, the more curiosity grows around her identity and the truth. Fans are eager to see how Shin Hye-sun completes this character.

Shin Hye-sun has already earned praise through the teaser posters, trailer, and character stills. In every cut, she delivers a completely different aura, elevating the character’s many layers with tight, focused acting. She signals overwhelming presence with luxe jewelry and styling, while also capturing the moments of stoically enduring reality with a blank expression―amping up intrigue around Sara Kim.

Through ‘The Art of Sarah’ and its lead ‘Sara Kim’, Shin Hye-sun is poised to unveil a new side of herself. Moving between multiple lives and complex emotions contained in a single name, she stands at the center of the story. All eyes are on whether she’ll notch another career-defining role.

‘The Art of Sarah’, starring Shin Hye-sun, premieres on Netflix on the 13th (Fri).
