Horror comes to Yoga School
by javabeans
Eugene
Like I said, summer is the time for horror. First we had the high school-set Suicide Pact; then Lee Seo-jin‘s high school-set drama Soul. Now it’s (the very unhorror-ly titled) Yoga School [요가학원] — although you wouldn’t know it from these photos from the film’s open set day, would you?
The story centers around five beautiful women who harbor different insecurities and seek out a mysterious yoga school that promises undying beauty. The film is directed by Yoon Jae-yeon, who directed the third Memento Mori film Wishing Stairs.
Yoga School features seven actresses, led by Eugene (Romantic Island) and Park Han-byul (Fantasy Couple), as well as Jo Eun-ji (Forever the Moment), Cha Soo-yeon (The World They Live In), Kim Hye-na (Unstoppable Wedding), Lee Young-jin (Antique Bakery), and Hwang Seung-eon.
Yoga School opens this summer.
The film held a press conference and opened its set to reporters on June 2 at its filming location in Kyeonggi Province, which featured its stars in a yoga session:
Eugene plays a television shopping network host with a “Superwoman” complex:
Park Han-byul:
Kim Hye-na:
Jo Eun-ji:
Cha Soo-yeon plays the yoga instructor:
Hwang Seung-eon:
Lee Young-jin:

Lee Young-jin has really long legs and stick thin! Well, her upper body looks really skinny, but her legs are tone and healthy looking.

So glad to see Korean horror back in full flight after an almost non-existant 2008. I'm watching this space for news of more horror goodies to come :)
Good to see Eugene in this (she's the only one not showing leg out of the 5 women!) and I take it the director has a soft spot for Park Han Byul who was also in Wishing Stairs.

They are so thin - not much muscle either. I bet they had the patches after those stretches.

JB, the last time you gave us a crop of themed stuff (fashion) it went horribly pear shaped, now we have a crop of horror, lets hope they all make it to the 'chopping block' screen. lol.
Ideal role for Lee Young-jin, something about that look of her's, really freaks me out.

the storyline is pretty refreshing. I'm not normally a horror movie fan but i think this story line captures on what's really popular right now which is yoga and i really might watch it...

Lolz! If only! I'd do yoga in a heartbeat, no question, if it meant their bodies.

I just came back from a yoga retreat last weekend and half the poses here seem to be artistic renditions of yoga poses rather than pure postures. Anyways, they all look pretty doing them.
At least they can wrap their legs around each other while standing up which I still can't do.
I love Eugene and will be looking forward to this.

@all4movies -
most of the yoga postures shown in any film, television or print tend to be the fancy dancy show offy flexible postures. that make yoga seem unacessible to the majority. but i still love seeing shows or movies that highlight the asana practice.
what retreat did you go to? i'm just curious.

This reminds me of that Xena episode where they fell through a hole to another dimension and the guy they met was a yoga master. He began sucking out Gabby's essence as she mastered the poses which would have eventually turned her into a statue. But Xena wasn't havin' it, of course. Good stuff! I will watch this.

@ 17 Muffin
That is quite possibly the most random and funny comment ever. Thank you for that! I swear I was trying to think of how the horror can be worked into a yoga school and my ideas were along those same lines....Xena residuals? Maybe....

Yeah, Lee Young-jin is very tall. In the movie, she really stood out whenever she was with a group of other females.

if you want to watch yoga school, go to youtube and type yoga class korean movie with eng sub. the person put the korean title as yoga class rather than yoga school. i guess she or he made a mistake. anyways, hope you enjoy
