\n\t\u201cWhen I first learned about Perfect Girl, I was immediately drawn to its uniquely compelling premise, the convergence of two global cultural phenomena\u2014K-pop and the thriller genre\u2014and the way music and storytelling are so intrinsically connected,\u201d said Weaver. \u201cWe rarely become involved in projects at this stage in the process, but the story, the artists at its center, the filmmakers, and the creative vision of this film were so incredibly fresh and exciting that this became an opportunity we simply had to be part of. We\u2019re thrilled to join this exceptional team of partners in bringing Perfect Girl to life.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: Atlantic Records and Teddy Park\u2019s Korean outfit The Black Label have come on to produce the soundtrack…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":676245,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[11307,93,61,60,278,40886,145487],"class_list":["post-676244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-atlantic-records","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-music","tag-perfect-girl","tag-the-black-label"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/676244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=676244"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/676244\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/676245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=676244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=676244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=676244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
