Meet the Action Queens: Cha Soo-bin, Nana, and Ji-soo
The much-anticipated film, Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, is set to thrill audiences with its fantasy action storyline. Adapted from the popular novel that captivated readers for over a decade, the film envisions a reality where the novel’s world comes alive, forcing the only reader ‘Kim Dokja’ to join ‘Yoo Joong-hyuk’ and other companions in navigating a world on the brink of destruction. The movie stars Cha Soo-bin, Nana, and Ji-soo in commanding roles, each bringing distinct skills and charismatic action to the screen, ready to mesmerize viewers.
Cha Soo-bin as Yoo Sang-ah
Cha Soo-bin’s portrayal of ‘Yoo Sang-ah’ pairs intelligence with compassion, forming a powerful team with ‘Kim Dokja’ (played by Ahn Hyo-seop) both in reality and within the novel world. She exhibits skills that blend wisdom with warmth, like bridging broken paths using strings or healing allies. Her talent shines through, as she highlights, “Standing as a stepping stone for others is Yoo Sang-ah’s charm.” Her meticulous preparation in action choreography was fundamental, taking rigorous training to bolster her action scenes.
Nana Conquers with Justice as Jung Hee-won
Nana commands the screen with her action-packed role as ‘Jung Hee-won’, a beacon of tenacity and justice. After dramatically surviving the ‘Geumho Station’ incident with ‘Kim Dokja’, she wields the sword of justice, becoming the core offensive force for the group. Her handling of dual blades is seamless, her choreography electrifying. “Actions required extensive training, about 4 to 5 months in basics and stamina. It was essential to master the balance and strength,” she proudly shared, fueling her ambition to continue in action roles.
Emerging Talent: Ji-soo as Lee Ji-hye
Ji-soo takes on ‘Lee Ji-hye’, a high school student guided by ‘Yoo Joong-hyuk’ (Lee Min-ho). Her character struggles with trust, choosing initially to reject ‘Kim Dokja’s’ suggestions for alliance, grounding her survival beliefs in strength. Ji-soo’s intensive approach to mastering various action sequences allowed her to blend seamlessly into her role. “Though I faced many new movements, I committed fully to capture the character’s essence,” Ji-soo notes.
