• "The Glory": Actress Lim Ji Yeon Shares Her Experience Playing Her First Villain Role

    Actress Lim Ji Yeon shared her thoughts on playing her first villain role in "The Glory."

    On the morning of March 17th, Lim Ji Yeon spoke about various topics in an interview for the Netflix original series "The Glory" at a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

    "The Glory" tells the story of people who are drawn into the vortex of revenge that a woman who was shattered by violence in her childhood and even to her soul has carefully prepared, and Lim Ji Yeon played the role of Park Yeon Jin, a weathercaster who raises a daughter and was a leader in school violence against Moon Dong Eun (played by Song Hye Kyo).

    With her cheeky speech and various expressions, Lim Ji Yeon perfectly embodies the villain and has gained much love.

    On this day, Lim Ji Yeon shared her thoughts on playing her first villain role in her life. He recalled when he received the proposal for the villain role and said, "The script for 'The Glory' was so interesting.

    Even if it wasn't Yeon-jin, I would have done this work with Dong-eun, Hye-jung, Sara, and even Hyun-nam," saying that he had no doubts.

    Lim Ji Yeon said, "I would have appeared in 'The Glory' even if it was a cameo role. Actually, I've always wanted to play a villain role."

    She added, "I hoped that if I had the opportunity to play a villain, I would be able to play a proper villain when I became an experienced actor in my 40s or 50s. But the opportunity came at a younger age than I expected. I met a villain I liked, so I thought it was definitely mine."

    Lim Ji Yeon continued, "Even I hate Lim Ji Yeon so much. When I prepared the script for this work, I hoped that everyone in the world would hate her. It's not easy to get everyone's hearts, but it seemed easy to be hated. I told the writer that I hoped everyone in the world would hate me, and that's how I knew I did well in this work."

    In "The Glory," Lim Ji Yeon shows a bed scene with Park Sung Hoon, who played Jeon Jae Jun, and also transformed into a mother who raises a child.

    Regarding this, she said, "I had no problem with it at all," and added, "It was really okay. The bed scene with Jae Jun was a necessary scene for Yeon Jin. Also, the role of a mother was not that important. I'm also a 34-year-old actress."

  • Kwon Eun Bi proudly says “I don’t share income anymore” after becoming a building owner thanks to Waterbomb popularity

    Kwon Eun Bi is living the dream — solo success, tons of ads, and now… a building under her name!

    On April 21, a new episode was uploaded on the Donghaemul and Baekdu Eunhyuk YouTube channel.

    In the video, Kwon Eun Bi opened up about her viral Waterbomb moment, her career boost, and her big investment move.

    The former IZ*ONE member confidently said, “Is there a Waterbomb goddess I feel competitive with? Honestly, not even one. I don’t care. Aren’t I the best?” Eunhyuk backed her up, saying, “The original has a different level. I can’t argue with that.”

    Eun Bi also talked about how nervous she was at the time. “That was my first festival in Seoul. I was alone on such a big stage, and I was so nervous. You never know when success will hit. I didn’t think that performance would blow up,” she said.

    Surprisingly, she didn’t feel the buzz while performing. “I was on stage around 1 PM, and there were still lots of empty seats. I kept thinking, ‘Is this okay? What if it goes badly?’ But when I got home, the reaction just exploded. I was shocked!”

    Eunhyuk asked, “You must’ve gotten a lot of ads after that, right?” She replied with a smile, “Yes, I did a lot of ads after Waterbomb.” KCM chimed in and teased, “You even bought a building with all that money!”

    Eun Bi laughed and admitted, “I was already making money before, but after Waterbomb, the income ratio felt like 3 to 7. I got tons of commercial deals and events. And since I’m working alone now, I don’t need to share my income with group members, so that helped a lot.”

    Netizens are cheering her on, calling her a true queen of the solo era — with business smarts to match her talent!
