Shin Yun-bok, better known as Hyewon, is hitting the silver screen next month, adding to the growing trend in celebrating and rediscovering the legendary painter of the Joseon period."Portrait of a Beauty" (Miindo), directed by Jeon Yeon-soo, is the first big-screen movie devoted to the veiled life of the 18th century genius. The movie comes at a time when the nation is in the grip of fascination about Hyewon. Last year, a novel titled "Painter of the Wind" touched off a Hyewon boom in the country's culture scene. A major television network has recently followed suit by launching a drama series of the same title based on the novel.

"Portrait of a Beauty", a film about painter Shin Yun-bok of the Joseon era, was cited the most anticipated Korean movie this fall in a survey conducted by the film site Movist (http://www.movist.com).
