Program Note
Persona consists of four different stories about desire and relationships. Four directors – Lee Kyoungmi, Yim Pilsung, Jeon Gowoon, and Kim Jongkwan– each use actress Lee Ji-eun to portray their persona; each directors’s distinctive features show through the actress using a different face in each episode. Persona forces the viewer to focus on Lee Ji-eun the actress, not the pop star IU as she is also known, and the exibility of her face reects on the directors. (Mo Eun-young)
