Actress Kim Hee-ra is resuming her acting activities after the school violence controversy.
Her agency, Gram Entertainment, announced on the 13th, "Kim Hee-ra will appear in the movie 'Savior' (directed by Shin Joon)."
This marks her return after two years since the conclusion of tvN's 'Amazing Rumor 2: Counter Punch' and the musical 'Frida' in 2023.
'Savior' is an occult film that depicts a family's struggle to escape a terrible curse given as the price for a miracle they desperately wanted. Director Shin Joon, who received critical acclaim from audiences and critics for his work 'Yongsun,' which won the Daemyung Culture Wave Award at the 21st Busan International Film Festival, is at the helm.
In the film, Kim Hee-ra plays the role of Chun-seo, who becomes embroiled in a significant incident after getting involved with Sun-hee (played by Song Ji-hyo), who moves into the neighborhood while raising her son alone.
Kim Hee-ra expressed through her agency, "I am grateful to be able to participate in 'Savior,' which I really wanted to do. I have done my best for a good performance, so I ask for your interest and expectations."
Kim Hee-ra showcased her presence by playing the role of Lee Sa-ra in the Netflix series 'The Glory,' but she temporarily halted her activities after being embroiled in school violence allegations, leading to her withdrawal from the tvN drama 'Jeongnyeon.' She later resolved the controversy through amicable agreements among the parties involved.
