Natalie (Hangul: 나탈리; RR: Natalri; MR: Nat‘alli) is a 2010 South Korean romance mystery film co-written, directed and produced by Ju Kyung-jung. It was the first Korean 3D film.[2][3]

The film's title refers to a famous female nude piece by sculptor Jun-hyuk (Lee Sung-jae). The model of the piece has remained a great mystery in the art world, but a young critic (Kim Ji-hoon) claims to have also loved the femme fatale (Park Hyun-jin) who had been Jun-hyuk's muse.[4]

Plot

Mi-ran, a beautiful dance student (Park Hyun-jin), becomes the model, muse and lover of her philandering sculptor-professor Jun-hyuk (Lee Sung-jae). When Mi-ran realizes that she will never be more than a model for Jun-hyuk, she leaves him for her stalker-cum-fellow student Min-woo (Kim Ji-hoon).

The story takes place 10 years later, when Min-woo and Jun-hyuk reunite as art critic and interviewee, and the two compare their conflicting memories of Mi-ran, who seems to have since disappeared.
