In your radiant season" (tentative translation: Radiant Summer) is Lee Sung Kyung's latest project. Previously, she starred in many works such as "Unforgivable Love", "Dr. Romantic 3", "The Lucky Boy"...
Despite being highly appreciated for her appearance and acting ability, the female star's name is "stamping on its feet" because of her somewhat safe script choice, many roles with similar personalities and looks.
In the new project, Lee Sung Kyung plays Song Ha Ran - the main designer at Nana Atelier, a leading high-end fashion brand in Korea.
Haunted by the deep emotional wounds from the past, Ha Ran lives in seclusion, not allowing anyone to enter her private space. However, the appearance of Sunwoo Chan (Chae Jong Hyeop) - a man who lives every day as if it were an interesting summer vacation has completely changed Ha Ran's dark life.
Speaking about the work, Lee Sung Kyung shared that she was immersed in the story, especially the way the two main characters learn to love each other in circumstances where love is not easy.
The actress revealed that Ha Ran used to be a bright, pure girl, full of dreams and passion, but after a major upheaval, she locked herself in a cold winter to protect herself.
The important thing is to show that Ha Ran is not cold or indifferent, but she is the one who builds walls of fear. Instead of appearing strong, I want the character to appear as fragile and pitiful" - the actress explained.
Also according to Lee Sung Kyung, Ha Ran has many similarities with her personality.
I believe everyone has their own fears, hurts and ways to protect themselves. Although our appearances may be different, I can still deeply sympathize with Ha Ran's heart. Her bright personality and love for work are aspects that I feel very similar to myself" - the female star said.
In addition to carefully studying the script and characters, the Korean star also focuses on fashion style. Because Ha Ran is a female designer, Lee Sung Kyung's image in the film is also carefully taken care of.
The actress hopes that when the movie airs, audiences will enjoy the character designs, beautiful locations and sweet romantic dialogues between Chan and Ha Ran, the warmth of families and the Nana Atelier team.
The movie "In your radiant season" is scheduled to be released on the evening of February 20.
