Gong Hyo-jin and Shin Min-ah showed friendly smiles and affection like real sisters in every cut throughout the photo shoot. They doubled expectations for “Sisters on the Road”, which will meet the audience again after 13 years.

Director Boo Ji-young, who was at the photo shoot together with the two, said, “I’m grateful to the actresses who are still the same after 13 years.” She expressed her special gratitude, “They grew into good actresses after various works. This gives me the motivation that ‘I have to work harder from now on’.”

Celebrating the screening of the digital remastered version of “Sisters on the Road”, Gong Hyo-jin shared her thoughts, “I felt again that there were not many feminist movies at that time. I thought that good films should be preserved for a long time, and I’m glad that I worked with Shin Min-ah in such a work.

She added, “Watching a movie that was filmed a long time ago again is very nerve-wracking. The sad part is that I can’t sit comfortably because I’m afraid people will notice me. However, it’s precious since it might be the last chance to watch ‘Sisters on the Road’ on the screen. When ‘Sisters on the Road’ is screened at the theater, I want to go watch it secretly.”

Shin Min-ah recalled, “At the time of filming ‘Sisters on the Road’, I had a lot of passion for acting and wanted to show various aspects. One of them was the role of Myung-eun in ‘Sisters on the Road’.”

Programmer Kim Hyun-min said, “Last year, the Seoul International Women’s Film Festival screened the digital remastered version of ‘Take Care of My Cat’, which marked the 20th anniversary of its release. The movie which joins this year’s festival is ‘Sisters on the Road’.”

Programmer Kim Hyun-min emphasized the importance of restoring feminist movies, “After director Yim Soon-rye, female directors with full of competence and individuality began to appear in the 2000s, but that history hasn’t been recorded properly. Most of the digital remastered films are male-dominated, male-directed. Feminist films are being forgotten.”
