‘ONE STEP’ FILM SYNOPSIS
After a car accident, Si-hyun (Dara Park) is left with no memory of her past and lives with Ji-won (Hong Ah Reum) whom she met at the hospital. Si-hyun has colored hearing, an illness that visualizes sounds into colors. The mixed array of colors she sees with music makes her dizzy, so she protects herself by wearing a set of giant headphones.
One day, Ji-won’s brother Woo-hyuk (Cho Dong In) hears Si-hyun humming a melody in her sleep. He writes it down and gives her the score, hoping it will help recall her past.
Meanwhile, Jee-il (Han Jae Suk), a washed-out songwriter chances upon this score and offers to find the melody Si-hyun continues to hear in her dreams.
They embark on a healing journey as they collaborate to complete Si-hyun’s melody.
WHAT IS COLORED HEARING?
Colored Hearing is a type of synesthesia in which head sounds automatically and involuntarily evoke an experience of color. There are no causes that have been clearly identified, but in some cases, past experiences can influence this condition.
BLOCK SCREENING IN THE PHILIPPINES
Dara herself has extended warmest gratitude to her fans in the Philippines by sending signed ‘One Step’ movie posters.
“My friend from Star Magic is coming here (to Korea) next week. I’ll give these posters to her so she can give it for the block screenings,” she said in a tweet.
