Top actress Lee Young-ae will return to the big screen after a 13-year absence, reports said.
She will take the role of a mother who loses her mentally disabled son in a new film titled "Find Me."
Lee's last film was Park Chan-wook's 2005 film "Sympathy for Lady Vengeance." The actress, 47, who shot to global fame with "Jewel in the Palace" (2003) has also been active on the small screen. After taking a hiatus for her marriage, she last year starred in the Korean drama titled "Saimdang, Memoir of Colors," co-starring with hallyu heartthrob Song Seung-heon.
Filming for the upcoming movie will start in the first half of the year, after casting has been completed for other roles, reports said.
