Actress Song Hye Kyo revealed her honest thoughts ahead of the release of the new drama.

On February 15, Newsis reported an interview with Song Hye Kyo.Song Hye Kyo finished her magazine Harper's Bazaar photoshoot and she shared her feelings about the Netflix drama 'The Glory'. She plays the role of a teacher Song Hye Kyo, who strives for revenge. Writer Kim Eun Sook and director Ahn Gil Ho joined hands with Song Hye Kyo. 

Song Hye Kyo said, "This work can be said to be my first genre and first revenge drama,"

"I am looking forward to the new expressions and emotions that come out while acting because both the colors and characters of the work are completely opposite to what I've been up to," she added.

"I am a person who is important to the process. The result is of course important, but it is if it is serious. Work is not something that I do alone. " she continued

"I've never entered a drama with this kind of mindset, 'I can do well because I've always done it." she explained.

Song Hye Kyo said, "I am not the only one who grows old, but the character also grows old with me. The character must have matured as a human being as he got older, and there must have been joys and sorrows throughout his life. I think it's getting more and more difficult."

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
