Kim So Hyoung is a South Korean director and actor. Although she had a desire to make movies, she chose to major in another discipline that she believed would allow her to find a job quickly.
Later on, as she still couldn’t get filmmaking out of her mind, she eventually gave in and entered the Korea National University of Arts (K’ARTS). As part of an international exchange program between her school and the Japan Institute of the Moving Image, one of her screenplays was selected and she was offered the opportunity to film it in Japan in the summer of 2019. In 2020, KIM managed to pick up two prizes, each for different works presented at the Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival, ie. Best Picture in the A Short Film About Love (melodrama genre) competition and a Special Jury Mention.
