Hyomin is the first member of a Korean girl group to star in a Japanese film, while her group has been expanding its presence beyond Korea and Japan recently to other parts of Asia.

Hyomin plays a role of a Korean girl who goes to study in Japan after losing her love in a tragic accident. She ends up acting as a go-between for her only friend in Japan by sending messages between the girl and her own first love.

"Jinx" sentimentally depicts the first flush of love among teenagers, while also dealing with the theme of friendship. It will be released in Korea on Feb. 13, one day before the Valentine's Day.
