The official spokesperson from Sol Kyung Gu's agency said, "On that day, the staff and crew members of the movie 'Wish,' in which Sol Kyung Gu starred, was invited to attend the 2013 Damah Film Festival because the movie was selected as the special guest piece.

"Hiroshima Damah Film Festival" is a international film festival that started in Seattle, Washington, United States, in 2001. From 2009, it has been taking place in Hiroshima, Japan. The festival is known for showing films that portray the characters' feelings of conflict and change, and the audiences can vicariously live the various cultures and environments through films shown in the festival.
In this year's festival, the movie "Wish" proved its hot attention, with its 500 seats being sold out very quickly. After the movie, Sol Kyung Gu and director Lee Joon Ik of "Wish" participated in the dialogue with the audiences, and shared their stories on feelings of when they first read the scenario and reasons for deciding to start filming the movie.
Sol Kyung Gu recently received the popular star award in the 34th Blue Dragon Film Festival last Friday, November 22, 2013.
