Actress Go Doo-shim returns to stage

Veteran local actress Go Doo-shim, 56, returns to the stage in Daehangro, downtown Seoul, with homegrown play "Mother", which opens on April 12, CJ Entertainment said yesterday.

It is Ko's first theater appearance in seven years after performing in the monodrama "I, I'm a Woman" in 2000.

Based on an essay of the same title, "Mother" tells the story of a love-hate relationship between a mother and her daughter.

Ko will play a dedicated mother who makes many sacrifices for her family, especially her daughter, said major sponsor CJ Entertainment in a statement.

Jang Young-nam, who appeared in last year's popular play "The Vagina Monologues", will play the role of the daughter.

The company has not disclosed which theater will be used.
