Early life and education

Moon So-ri was born in Busan, South Korea, on July 2, 1974. She is the eldest daughter of Moon Chang-jun, a taxi driver, and Lee Hyang-ran, a street-food vendor,[1] and has one younger brother Moon Yang-il. Her family relocated to Samjeon-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul, during her fifth year of elementary school.[1][2] She subsequently attended Seoul Samjeon Elementary School, Seokchon Middle School, and Jamsil Girls' High School.[3]

In 1990, as a freshman at Jamsil Girls' High School, Moon watched her first play, Equus, which starred Shin Goo and Choi Min-sik. This experience sparked her interest in acting. However, her frail health and a restrictive upbringing limited her access to acting at that time. From middle school, her parents required her to study violin and classical literature. Later she majored in education at Sungkyunkwan University.[4][5]

Upon university enrollment in 1993, Moon's improved health allowed her to actively pursue acting. She joined both the drama club and the Korean traditional music club, where she studied instruments such as the gayageum. She undertook pansori under Nam Hae-seong, the owner of the pansori Sugungga, which included a month of intensive study in Namwon.[5]

In 1995, during her third year of university, Moon joined the theater group Hangang ("Han River"), which led her to forgo midterm examinations. She initially performed administrative tasks before participating in the original play Classroom Idea. She secured a role portraying a wealthy girl due to her violin skills, joining the production midway through rehearsals. Moon remained with Hangang until 1997. She supported herself through part-time jobs, using her earnings to fund ballet lessons, which resulted in her graduating from college approximately 18 months later than her peers.[5][6]

Career as actress

1999 to 2005: Early career and breakthrough roles in films

After graduating from Sungkyunkwan University in February 1999, Moon applied for the 26th MBC open talent exam, but failed.[7] Recognizing her limited prior acting experience and industry connections, she chose to pursue academic study in acting and was accepted into the Department of Theater at Seoul Institute of the Arts.[8]

That year, Moon learned of an audition for Lee Chang-dong's Peppermint Candy through Cine21. The audition process lasted two to three months, during which she considered whether to pursue the role or continue her college education. After consulting an assistant director, she contacted Lee directly. Although Lee could not guarantee the role, he advised her to make her own decision. Moon opted to withdraw from college and received a tuition refund. Despite industry preference for a more established actress, she secured the role after competing against 2,000 other hopefuls, making her debut alongside Sul Kyung-gu. Lee was reportedly impressed by Moon’s natural and relatable presence, and her initiative in contacting him also influenced the casting.[5]

For two years following Peppermint Candy, Moon did not receive any feature film offers, and a television drama offer was ultimately given to another actress.[7] During this period, she primarily appeared in short films, including Black Cut (2001),[9] The 19th Plan of the Outer Space (2001), To the Spring Mountain (2001),[10] To Bomsan (2002), Sangam-dong World Cup (2002), and The Match (2002), and served as a narrator for documentaries. Holding a teaching license, Moon taught Chinese characters to elementary students and tutored disabled individuals at a welfare center. During this time, she reconnected with Lee Chang-dong who was volunteering while researching for his upcoming film Oasis.[5]

In Lee Chang-dong's Oasis, Moon reunited with Sul Kyung-gu to portray Han Gong-ju, a woman with cerebral palsy. Initially considering established actors, Lee asked Moon to submit an audition tape within two weeks using a 6mm camera. Moon prepared by studying cerebral palsy documentaries but struggled with the portrayal and considered withdrawing until actress Oh Ji-hye encouraged her to submit the tape. Moon then spent an additional two months on intensive preparation, which included script study and gaining firsthand experience of disability by using a wheelchair. Filming for Oasis lasted six months.[5][11][12] Her portrayal earned her the Marcello Mastroianni Award for Emerging Actress at the 2002 Venice Film Festival—making her the second Korean recipient after Kang Soo-yeon in 1985 for The Surrogate Woman—and Best Actress at the Seattle International Film Festival.[13]

The following year, Moon gained further acclaim in Im Sang-soo's third film A Good Lawyer's Wife. A 180-degree turn from her previous screen image, this film featured her as a free thinking woman in a decaying marriage who starts an affair with the teenage boy next door. This film was also invited to the Venice Film Festival, and she later won the Best Actress award from the Stockholm International Film Festival. Similar to the case with Oasis, Best Actress honors at many domestic awards ceremonies followed.[13]

In 2004, Moon acted as Song Kang-ho's character wife, Kim Min-ja, in Im Chan-sang's The President's Barber, a film that illustrates 20 years of modern Korean history through the eyes of president Park Chung Hee's personal barber.[14] She took a more central role in her next feature Sa-kwa, an introspective relationship drama about a woman who embarks on a new relationship after being dumped by her long-time boyfriend.[15] Also from 2005, Bravo, My Life! saw her return to the historical era of the late 70s/early 80s in a family drama set against the political upheaval of those times.[13][16]

It ran at the Information Small Theater in Daehangno from February to March 2006.[18]

Moon also portrayed a sexually promiscuous professor opposite Ji Jin-hee in Lee Ha's directorial debut Bewitching Attraction.[19] Subsequently, she appeared as a disapproving sister in Family Ties, for which she shared Best Actress honors with Go Doo-shim, Gong Hyo-jin, and Kim Hye-ok at the 2006 Thessaloniki Film Festival, where the film also received Best Picture and Best Screenplay.[20]

She later appeared in another Chaimu production, There, directed by Yi Sang-woo. Adapted from Conor McPherson's The Weir and localized to the Gangwon Province seaside, the play featured an ensemble cast including Jeong Won-joong, Lee Dae-yeon, Kim Seung-wook, Lee Sung-min, Min Bok-gi, Park Won-sang, Kim Du-yong, Choi Deok-moon, Oh Yong, Park Ji-ah, and Jeon Hye-jin. It ran at Daehangno Arts Center 2 from May 3 to June 25.[21]

Despite initial low ratings, the show gained viewership, and Moon's performance earned positive reviews. Reflecting on her experience, Moon remarked, "I was very confused by the drama production system, which is different from movies, and the characters that change over time. However, even athletes with great athletic ability make mistakes. I think that even if there are setbacks, there is no better experience than this. Now, my vague fear of dramas has largely disappeared."[29][30] Moon received the Excellence Actress Award Award at the 2008 MBC Drama Awards for her role.[31]
