Song Hye Gyo Turns Into a Loving Mother for "My Brilliant Life," Also Starring Kang Dong Won

Top actor and actress Kang Dong Won and Song Hye Gyo have come together again for the movie “My Brilliant Life,” which will be released on September 3. This will be the second time they have starred in a movie together.

“My Brilliant Life” is a touching movie based on a novel about a young couple, Mira (Song Hye Gyo) and Dae Su (Kang Dong Won), who conceive a child at the young age of 17. Their newborn son, Ah Reum, is diagnosed with Progeria syndrome, a rare genetic defect that causes him to age rapidly from an early age.

Actress Song Hye Gyo diverges from her goddess image to play the realistic role of Mira: a beautiful girl that once dreamed of becoming a pop idol, yet through the turn of events of having a child, ends up becoming a hard-working mother who has great love for her son.

Song Hye Gyo and Kang Dong Won previously starred as a couple in the movie “Camellia” in 2010. There have also been rumors that they may be dating, as they were spotted in Paris and at a movie premiere together.
