Top 5 best movies and series starring the “muse” Kim Tae Ri

Kim Tae Ri is often praised for her genius acting skills and gorgeous, elegant beauty. 

Among the Korean actresses born in the 90s of the current generation, many viewers are especially impressed with Kim Tae Ri, who has recorded remarkable achievements in both theatrical films and dramas, even though she did not undergo any professional acting classes. Let’s take a look at the Top 5 best films and TV series starring the most sought-after “muse” of the Korean entertainment industry that you should not miss.

The Handmaiden 

Inspired by the novel Fingersmith (2002) by British writer Sarah Waters, the film’s setting is changed from the Victorian era to Korea in the 1930s, under Japanese colonial occupation. 

 

Sook Hee (Kim Tae Ri) is an orphaned pickpocket, hired by Fujiwara (Ha Jung Woo) – a Korean con man pretending to be a Japanese nobleman, to be a maid for a Japanese heiress – Lady Hideko (Kim Min Hee). Fujiwara’s plan is to seduce Hideko and persuade her into marrying him in order to take her inheritance. However, things gradually become complicated when the two women begin to develop feelings for each other.

 

 

 

 

 

Directed by the famous director Park Chan Wook (director of the hit Oldboy), the feminist thriller Handmaiden has completely impressed the viewers and critics with its daring, erotic but also mesmerizing footage about same-sex relationship. 

The Handmaiden is an important turning point in Kim Tae Ri’s acting career when she not only excellently surpassed 1500 people to be cast in her first leading role in a motion picture, but also won Best New Actress at the Blue Dragon Film Awards.

Little Forest

Little Forest tells the story of Hye Won (Kim Tae Ri) – a young girl who is tired of the city life and decides to go back to her hometown in the countryside to live. She then begins her journey to heal her soul by growing vegetables and fruits in the garden, enjoying the fresh nature, preparing a variety of delicious meals and enjoying them with her close friends.

 

 

 

 

Through the poetic footage throughout the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, along with the slow pace, the movie brings a sense of peace and tranquility. Little Forest is like a car that takes us away from the hustle and bustle of the city to find the simple beauty of nature surrounding rural life.

 

Space Sweepers

The timeline in “Space Sweepers” is set in 2092, when the Earth has been seriously polluted to the point that it is nearly uninhabitable. The UTS Corporation, operated by Sullivan (Richard Armitage) has created a new habitat for people on Mars with the most modern civilization. However, only the wealthiest and the most intelligent people are allowed to live here.

Meanwhile, captain Jang (Kim Tae Ri), Tae Ho (Song Joong Ki), Tiger Park (Jin Seon Kyu) and the robot Bubs (Hae Jin Yoo) work as space sweepers, who collect and sell space debris to get money. One day, they accidentally find out Dorothy, a wanted robot that contains an unexpected power, and this has become their turning point.

 

 

 

 

Although “Space Sweepers” was praised for its magnificent visual effects created by a budget of 24 billion won, the viewers were still disappointed with the storyline. They said the movie wanted to deliver too many messages, and the characters’ background stories were not described in detail. That’s why “Space Sweepers” didn’t meet their expectations.

 

1987: When The Day Comes

Based on the true story that happened in Korea in 1087, this movie begins with the death of a 21-year-old college student Park Jong Chul (Yeo Jin Goo). His body was quickly cremated in order to cover up the crime of the authority.

However, after the media discovered the truth, Park Cheo Won (Kim Yun Seok), a commissioner in charge of investigating suspected communists, reported his death as a heart attack. After that, numerous protests for democracy blew up in all regions of the country.

 

 

 

 

 

 

By telling the true story, “1987” successfully drew the picture of brave people during war times with many characters who give inspiration.

Starring many veteran actors, such as Kim Yun Seok, Ha Jung Woo, Lee Hee Joon, Yoo Hae Jin, Kang Dong Won, etc., this movie was awarded the Daesang at Baeksang Arts Awards 2018 and the Best Film at the 39th Blue Dragon Film Awards.

Mr. Sunshine

“Mr. Sunshine” centers around Choi Yoo Jin/Eugene Choi (Lee Byung Hun), who was born during the Joseon dynasty but escaped to America. Later, he becomes a Marine Corps officer and returns to Joseon for a mission. Then he meets and falls in love with an aristocrat’s granddaughter, Go Ae Shin (Kim Tae Ri).

Written by the ‘golden’ screenwriter Kim Eun Sook, “Mr. Sunshine” was praised as a well-made drama, from the story, the acting to the music and images. Although it was a 24-episode drama, the story didn’t have any wasteful details. Moreover, every character was well-developed and their emotions caught the attention of the viewers.

 

 

 

 

 

Especially, Lee Byung Hun and Kim Tae Ri’s chemistry brought a completely different feeling compared to other drama couples. Without too many romantic scenes, the audiences still feel the love they have for each other.

Kim Tae Ri once again took over a new image and she did it excellently. This role also brought her the nomination for the Best Actress at the 2019 Baeksang Arts Awards.

Above are the 5 outstanding productions that have helped Kim Tae Ri make a name for herself and are absolutely well worth the watch. At the age of 31, despite having a modest filmography, Kim Tae Ri is already one of the leading actresses in Korean cinema. With her classic beauty and top-notch acting ability, she promises to deliver even more impressive performances in the future.

[BIFF] 'Seungri-ho' Song Joong-ki "I've never met anyone who doesn't like Kim Tae-ri, a really good person"

Enter 2021.10.07. 5:03 pm

 

▲ From the top, Song Joong-ki, Jin Seon-gyu, and Seong-hee Cho. SourceㅣNaver Now Live Broadcast Capture[Sports TV News = Busan, Hyo-jin Kang] Actor Song Joong-ki and Jin Seon-gyu and director Jo Sung-hee praised Kim Tae-ri, who worked together.

The open talk of the movie 'Seungriho' was held at 4 pm on the 7th at the outdoor stage of the Busan Cinema Center. Director Jo Sung-hee and actors Song Joong-ki and Jin Seon-gyu were present on the scene.

On this day, Song Joong-ki regretted the vacancy of Kim Tae-ri, who could not be with him, and said, "I wish Tae-ri was here."

Regarding Kim Tae-ri's existence, director Jo Seong-hee said, "Kim Tae-ri is one of the most sincere people among actors. She prepares a lot and worries a lot about herself. She is also very flexible on the set. She is always open to various changes. And her convictions are very strong. So, while I was working, there were a lot of moments where I was very respectful of the attitude and seriousness of this kind of work.”

He continued, "Tae-ri has a lot of ideas herself. After Kim Tae-ri was cast, the captain's character developed tremendously by talking to each other. Before that, she also taught me things I didn't know. Appearance, clothes, hair, and the history of the character. I also wanted to make a captain that was too hard. I think that Kim Tae-ri himself made most of the characters of the captain I created rather than the director or writer."

Jin Seon-gyu said, "I knew that Tae-ri was a really good actor, but as I was living, I thought that he was a really good person. Without looking at someone with any kind of line, I just open up and look at him completely, praise the good things, and talk about what he lacks. At the same time, talking with the director and playing with Joong-ki or Hae-jin was just so good."

Song Joong-ki also said, "I've never seen anyone dislike an actor named Kim Tae-ri. Even as a simple person, Kim Tae-ri, I felt a lot like Captain Jang in some ways. We were human too, so I want to collaborate with good people when doing something. I want to work with good staff and good actors. I can't say it, but there are people who say 'I don't want to work together.' Of course, I You shouldn't be that kind of person. We said that we seem to have been blessed a lot in that respect. The part that Kim Tae-ri occupied there is huge."

Then, Song Joong-ki said about the compliments he received from Kim Tae-ri, "The compliments are about 'oppa'. I think it was something like 'Senior?' I've heard a lot of people telling me not to do something like this. For example, if you say, 'Let's have one more beer, Tariya,' you say, 'Oppa! Shoot tomorrow!'

When asked if there is an actor he would like to work with, he said, “This time, it’s about teenagers. But someday, I want to work with actors Kim Tae-ri and Jung Yu-mi. The two actors shine even when they only hold the camera. Even if you accidentally turn the channel, you are curious about the narrative. He has strong screen control and has his own acting tone, so I'm curious what kind of character will come out if I work with these people."

Kim Tae Ri Expresses Her Love For Fencing, Discusses Her Latest Hobby, And More

 

Kim Tae Ri exudes a charismatic aura for the cover of Elle Korea!

During the bright and energetic photo shoot, the actress skillfully modeled a variety of styles. She showed off her healthy and fit body from transforming into a fencer for her upcoming drama “Twenty-Five Twenty-One” (literal title), and she was also spotted exercising and stretching from time to time.

“Twenty-Five Twenty-One” also stars Nam Joo Hyuk, and it is about two people who first meet when they are 22 and 18 and begin their love story four years later when they are 25 and 21. It tells a youthful story of romance, growth, and friendship.

 

 

In the interview following the photo shoot, Kim Tae Ri shared she’s been busy filming for her drama lately. She also mentioned her new movie “Alien” (literal translation) starring Yum Jung Ah, So Ji Sub, Kim Woo Bin, Ryu Jun Yeol, Kim Tae Ri, Jo Woo Jin, Honey Lee, and Kim Eui Sung.

It is a crime science-fiction film about aliens living in Korea and is said to be an expansion of director Choi Dong Hoon’s previous work, “Jeon Woo-chi: The Taoist Wizard.”

The actress commented, “While filming ‘Alien,’ I learned apparatus gymnastics. It’s an exercise that really suits me. I was worried if I could enjoy fencing as much as that, but I didn’t have to be concerned. I fell in love with it instantly. I cried and laughed while watching the fencing game at the Tokyo Olympics.”

 

Kim Tae Ri revealed her latest hobby is birdwatching. She explained, “In the past, I didn’t know there were so many birds in Seoul. Now, when I hear the sound of birds, I look around first. Small happiness has been added to my daily life.”

When asked how playing a just or courageous character seems to affect her as an individual, she answered, “I’m a tacky person. [People] tend to think that I suit those roles because I give off an organized vibe and seem more like a straight line than a curvy one. I try to live well while maintaining my uniqueness.”

 

Kim Tae Ri’s full interview and pictorial will be available in the December issue of Elle Korea.

'Twenty-Five Twenty One' is a drama depicting the wandering and growth of young people who have lost their dreams in the 1998 era. Twenty-two and eighteen, two people who met for the first time become twenty-five and twenty-one, love and grow together. It contains the images of five youths.

 

Actors Kim Tae-ri, Nam Joo-hyuk, Kim Ji-yeon (Bona), Choi Hyun-wook, and Lee Ju-myung appear. Writer Kwon Do-eun, who wrote the drama 'Enter Search WWW', and director Jung Ji-hyun, who directed 'The King: Eternal Monarch' and 'You Are My Spring', collaborated.

Kim Tae-ri takes on the role of Na Hee-do, a high school fencing dreamer who lost her team due to the IMF but never gave up. He transforms into a young man named Na Hee-do, who runs towards his dream while falling and frustrated. Nam Joo-hyuk plays the role of Baek Yi-jin, the eldest son of a family destroyed by the IMF, and shows the side of solving the problems of four young people.

Kim Ji-yeon (Bona) takes on the role of Ko Yu-rim, an 18-year-old national fencing team that competes with Na Hee-do. From the figure of a charismatic fencer to the role of a strong-willed person who becomes a cute figure when he takes off his fencing suit.

[Exclusive] 'Treasure Bae' Kim Tae-ri, writer Kim Eun-hee join hands... 'Devil' main character

Enter 2021.12.29. 10:53 am

 

 

[Sports Chosun Reporter Ji-yeon Moon] Actress Kim Tae-ri and writer Kim Eun-hee join hands.

On the 29th, a representative from the entertainment industry told Sports Chosun, "Kim Tae-ri was discussing about appearing in Kim Eun-hee's new work 'The Devil' (working title)." Writer Kim Eun-hee is planning to release a new work with SBS next year. In a showcase held for advertisers on the 9th, SBS announced, "The most anticipated work of 2022, a new work by Kim Eun-hee is coming."

Writer Kim Eun-hee has been well received by viewers by leaving masterpieces such as 'Signs', 'Ghost', and '3 Days' on SBS. After that, he made 'Signal' with tvN, and also created the 'Kingdom' series with Netflix. The new work of writer Kim Eun-hee, who has always surprised viewers by revealing unpredictable and unimaginable stories, is highly anticipated. In particular, he recently said that he wanted to write a 'story to save people' through tvN's 'Mt.

Kim Tae-ri, who challenged the drama through 'Mr. Sunshine' and '25 Twenty One', has already emerged as a 'trustworthy treasure' after 'The Handmaiden'. 'Mr. Sunshine', in which he appeared, already recorded 18.1% (Nielsen Korea's national standard for paid households), which was a syndrome-level popularity, and attracted attention in the film industry as well.

Currently waiting for the release of tvN's new drama '25 Twenty One'. I look forward to seeing him portray the youth of two men and women who met in the midst of social chaos. Kim Tae-ri's activities in romance, youth, and genre are expected to continue in the future. In particular, this is the first time writer Kim Eun-hee and Kim Tae-ri, whose genre is particularly strong, have met. Expectations are high on what kind of results the two people who have been receiving the attention of viewers will produce.

Looking forward to her new project, she is good at comical roles too.
