'Queen of Cannes' actress Jeon Do-yeon appears to be a strong candidate to become the first Korean actor nominated for the Best Actress award at the U.S. Academy Awards (Oscars).

On the 25th (local time), the U.S. entertainment outlet The Hollywood Reporter named Jeon Do-yeon, the star of the Netflix film "Possible Love" (directed by Lee Chang-dong), as a leading contender for the Best Actress Oscar.

The outlet reported on the Oscar race for director Lee Chang-dong's Netflix film "Possible Love," identifying lead actress Jeon Do-yeon as a strong candidate for the Best Actress award.

Following actress Yoon Yeo-jeong becoming the first Korean actor to win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for the film "Minari," attention in the Korean film industry is focused on Jeon Do-yeon being named a leading contender for Best Actress.

In "Possible Love," Jeon Do-yeon delivered a perfect performance as Mi-ok, the wife of a laid-off worker. Additionally, "Possible Love" is receiving high praise, having recorded a 100% Tomato Score from critics on the U.S. film rating site Rotten Tomatoes, which corresponds to a perfect score.

Rotten Tomatoes assessed that in addition to Jeon Do-yeon being a strong candidate for the Best Actress Oscar nomination, "Possible Love" is also a leading contender for the Best Picture award.

Attention is focused on whether 'Queen of Cannes' Jeon Do-yeon will once again surpass herself with the film "Possible Love" to claim the Oscar trophy.

"Possible Love" tells the story of two couples—a laid-off worker and his wife, and a documentary director and her husband—who meet to produce a documentary and confront their different lives and hidden desires. "Possible Love," director Lee Chang-dong's new work after eight years, garnered interest from film fans worldwide through the collaboration of top-tier actors including Jeon Do-yeon, Sol Kyung-gu, Jo In-sung, and Cho Yeo-jeong. The film received the honor of winning the Silver Lion for Best Screenplay at the 83rd Venice Film Festival on September 12 (local time).

Meanwhile, next year's U.S. Academy Awards ceremony will be held on March 14, 2027, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California.
