Director Lee Chang-dong's 'Possible Love' starring Jo Yu-ri released in 190 countries on Netflix

The film 'Possible Love', directed by Lee Chang-dong and starring actress Jo Yu-ri, was released in approximately 190 countries via Netflix on the 6th. In this work, Jo Yu-ri plays the childhood version of Mi-ok, a character portrayed by Jeon Do-yeon.

The film was previously released in domestic theaters this past September. This is Lee Chang-dong's new work, appearing eight years after 'Burning', and it received the Grand Jury Prize at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival. The story follows two couples in different circumstances—a laid-off worker and his wife, and a documentary director and his husband—as they become entangled and face wounds and desires. The film stars Jeon Do-yeon, Sul Kyung Gu, Zo In-sung, and Cho Yeo-jeong.

The childhood of Mi-ok, played by Jo Yu-ri, serves as a key link that explains the current internal wounds and trajectory of Mi-ok. Jo Yu-ri put significant effort into mastering the speech patterns, breathing, and atmosphere by repeatedly watching the film 'I Wish I Had a Wife', which stars Jeon Do-yeon and Sul Kyung Gu.

Jo Yu-ri gained recognition last year for her role as Jun-hee in the Netflix series 'Squid Game'. Most recently, she appeared in the short film 'An Ordinary Dream'.
