Hye-kyo Song has Fetish in Psychic Thriller
Asian Movie News, Fetish (2008) Movie — By Nix on November 21, 2007
South Korean model/actress Hye-kyo Song, or Song Hye-kyo depending on how you want to say it, is making her U.S. cinema debut in the new supernatural indie thriller “Fetish”, set to shoot in New York for a month sometime soon. Variety reports that directing Song in “Fetish” will be New York University graduate Sohn Soopum, who last helmed the 2002 short film “”Fish in the Sea is Not Thirsty”. The film is described as a psychological thriller in which Song, making her English debut, would play a woman with psychic abilities.
Song joins South Korean mega star Jeon Ji-Hyun, who can soon be seen in the big-screen adaptation of the Japanese anime “Blood: The Last Vampire”, by stretching her acting chops onto the International stage with an English-language film.
Or at least, I’m assuming “Fetish”, which is set in New York, will be shot in English. I could be wrong, of course.
Hye-kyo Song’s previous credits include “Legendary Courtesan Hwang Jin Yi”, “My Girl and I”, and the Korean dramas (or K-dramas) “Hotelier” and “All in”.
Update 11/27/07
Here’s more about the movie from The Korea Times:
In the psychological thriller “Fetish”, Song will play the role of a Korean woman with supernatural powers, who possesses an American woman’s body in order to steal her husband. She will star opposite Austrian actor Arno Frisch, who is well known from the 1997 film “Funny Games”.

reports are saying her role has 80% english dialogue.
i know she can do it w/ all her best.. i really adore her not just for her beauty, but also for her versatility in acting and charismatic personality.
I wish Song Hey Gyo the best on her filming.
I just hope that seh does not make that same sort of compromise
as what Tang Wei did on “Lust, Caution.” Sung Hye Gyo I love you!
go song hye gyo…. you can do it, and good luck on that movie, i really believe that song hye kyo can do it, she’s the best…. and i’m really happy for song hye kyo that she has another movie, i just hope that she could be seen again in another korean drama cause i really miss her….. but anyway go song hye kyo… fighting!!
she’s a great actress and she is pushing herself to master different roles and different types of characters. She has already played unique and a wide variety of characters that portray comedy, historical film, grave dramas, and funny dramas and beyond. Her last film Hwang Jin Yee was another shock for me. Mastering a historical role is very hard and it was her first time and it was very impressive. However the movie didn’t make too big in Korea because the director wasn’t too great and Korean people had “different” Hwang Jin Yee in mind. But you guys should check it out and look at her acting skills. It will blow your mind. I also recommend you see this movie too, although I don’t like thrillers, I bet it’s going to be good. Can’t wait to see this movie!
P.S FYI I also hear she’s a good singer
I love Song Hye Gyo very beautiful and talented. I hope she become popular in US ^_^
shk is indeed a very versatile actress. i can’t wait to see this movie too ~ hope it is coming out in theatres soon!
p.s. she does have a very beautiful voice … although she is not a professional singer, i enjoy hearing her sing^^.
