Jun tackles English, action in new vampire film

HONG KONG: South Korean actress Gianna Jun of "My Sassy Girl" fame says tackling English and action was a tough challenge when she filmed her first international production "Blood: The Last Vampire."
The 27-year-old Jun, who rose to fame by playing a bossy girl in the 2001 romantic comedy "My Sassy Girl," told reporters in Hong Kong through a translator Sunday: "English created mental stress. The action put pressure on my body. Both things were rather difficult for me."
Jun plays a half-human, half-vampire vampire killer in "Blood."
The film, based on a Japanese animated movie by the same name, was released in Japan on May 29 and opens in Hong Kong on Thursday.
"My Sassy Girl" was remade as a Hollywood production starring Jesse Bradford and Elisha Cuthbert. - AP
