Kim Da Mi and Jeon So Nee Confirmed To Star in Remake Film “Hello, My Soul Mate”
On June 10, Kim Da Mi and Jeon So Nee have been confirmed to star as the leads in the upcoming remake film, "Hello, My Soulmate," according to media outlet reports.
Kim Da Mi's successful portrayal of Jo Yi-Seo in "Itaewon Class" as a young trendsetter has won her Best New Actress Award on the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards - the star in the making she is!
If you loved her role in "Itaewon Class," you will surely love her in "Hello, My Soulmate."
Meanwhile, joining her is Jeon So Nee, the female lead in "When My Love Blooms," where she portrays the young Yoon Ji Soo.
These two rising stars will co-star in the forthcoming movie, a remake of the 2016 Chinese movie "Soul Mate," as two friends. This film is about two women who have been best friends since they were thirteen. Though both have different personalities, they surely get along very well.
One is bookish and conservative, who focuses on her studies to have stability in the future. The other one is free-spirited, who even gave up on her academics and chose to study in a vocational school. She soon stumbled upon a rock band and even did some bartending along with their gigs and shows.
Though totally opposite from each other, the two are really very close. They even snuggle together in bed, do each others' makeup, and promised to be friends forever. Then, a handsome man came to their lives, and they both fell in love with him, putting their friendship to the test.
Will their friendship end up in ruins? Watch it yourself! This is a remake, so things might just go differently.
Kim Da Mi is also best known for her titular role in the action-mystery film "The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion" as Koo Ja Yoon, which will have its sequel released hopefully in 2021. Among 1500 that auditioned, she was chosen by director Park Hoon Jung. Her role has brought her to the spotlight because of her remarkable performance, and was enthusiastically welcomed as a rising star, who appeared in "Chungmuro."
