Sometimes I Want to Be an Porn Hero

The movie of the same name adapted from the 1999 best-selling novel "Sometimes I Want to Be a Porn Hero" is about to hit the big screen. The original work, based on the heroine's confession of her sexual experience, aroused great social repercussions at the time and sold more than 1.4 million copies. The film tells the story of a heroine who was criticized by the world because her private life was exposed, and was fired from the crew of the TV series she starred in. Although there have been filmmakers who have always wanted to change the novel, they have been unable to make progress because the original author has not agreed. Recently, the film's production company stated that it would create a film that is completely different from existing Korean romance films. The original author only agreed to the big screen after 16 years. The starting point of the film is "Why do Korean adult romance films focus on sexual behavior between men and women?" and the film will also answer this through the story. The movie will integrate multiple short stories in the novel and focus on the heroine's love. She met a man who could help her overcome her pain and loneliness, and in the process of getting to know each other, she slowly changed her previous values ​​and fixed ideas, realizing that love is not about possession, but about caring for each other to achieve happiness. Director Jang Sung-soo, who made his debut with the 2008 movie "First Love", this is his second feature film.
