Uhm Ji-won - Tale of Cinema (2005)

Korean actress Uhm Ji-won appears in her first-ever explicit nude scene in the 2005 South Korean arthouse drama Tale of Cinema (original title: Geukjangjeon / 극장전), directed by Hong Sang-soo. This meta, dialogue-driven film follows a young filmmaker and his encounters with an old flame (played by Uhm Ji-won as aspiring actress Choi Young-shil). The movie gained notoriety for Uhm Ji-won’s bold on-screen nudity, which she later described as a liberating career milestone.
