Like with Ogamdo, the poster for the soon-to-be-released Korean summer horror/thriller Yoga School (above) has caused quite a buzz that’s preceded the film’s opening. The eerie, photo-manipulated image features actress Lee Young-jin, who is one of the stars of the film, with a tagline that reads, “Do you also want to be pretty?”Scheduled to be released only in Korea on August 20th, the film is about a group of appearance-obsessed young women who seek out and attend a curious yoga school that promises everlasting beauty.
The rest of the lovely female cast includes Kim Eugene (formerly of popular singing group SES, and whom yours truly has had the pleasure of meeting), Park Han-byul, Cha Soo-yeon (who was IDed here), Jo Eun-ji, Kim Hye-na, and Hwang Seung-uhn.

The cast at the press conference in Seoul last month. The film’s lead actress, Eugene (far left) stands about 160cm (just under 5’3″), all the ladies are wearing heels, so you can judge their heights accordingly.
Of the seven ladies appearing in the movie, Park Han-byul will arguably provide the best eye-candy and seems to have stolen the show at the press conferences. More on that here.
