Kim Ji Young posterKim Ji Young, Born 1982 is a movie adaptation of the controversial South Korean best-selling novel that tackles the inherent sexism in today’s society.

Kim Ji Young is a story about an ordinary housewife who toils over her child and husband day in and day out. When she falls into postpartum depression, her supportive husband encourages her to seek help.

The movie stars Jung Yu Mi and Gong Yoo who have worked together before in Silenced and Train to Busan.
