• "I wanted to act, but the opportunity rarely came" Lim Ji Yeon Talks About Her Acting Journey and Desperation to Succeed

    Lim Ji Yeon delivered the behind-the-scenes story of "The Glory."

    Actor Lim Ji Yeon, who appeared on Netflix's "The Glory," appeared in JTBC's "Newsroom," which aired on March 26th.

    On this day, Lim Ji Yeon said, "My mother calls me Yeon Jin these days, what does my father call her?" and added, "My whole family calls me Yeon Jin."

    They say, "Yeonjin, when are you coming?" "Yeonjin, I made a stew," and "Our Yeonjin." In addition, the new director of the film also calls him Yeonjin," he said, drawing laughter.

    Also, there is a line called 'I thought you were watching the newsroom' in the play, but you came out, Lim Ji Yeon said, "I didn't even imagine it."

    Actually, I had some expectations. "I thought he would sing it if the work went well," he said.

    Regarding the villain, Lim Ji Yeon said, "I wanted to play the villain, but the opportunity rarely came. But I read the script for "The Glory" and it was so much fun. Of course, I'm afraid, but I think the desire to take courage and challenge myself to play such an attractive villain was greater than the burden," she said.

    Regarding "Park Yeon Jin," Lim Ji Yeon said, "There were many things to show first. On the other hand, he said, "I think you're saying it's refreshing because I didn't have this look."

    Lim Ji Yeon said, "I felt a little cool because I had a lot of emotional expressions in a scene. But when I came home alone, I thought, "Did I have such a bad temper?" and "Why did I have so many wrinkles between my eyes?" Also, I screamed so much that my throat was not left."

    Sheb added, "It was also hard because I smoked a lot in the space."

    The anchor said, "Didn't you wear a lot of phlegm?" and Lim Ji Yeon agreed, "Yes."

    When asked, "I'm proud of my eyebrows," Lim Ji Yeon said, "I hated eyebrows when I was young. Also, dark eyebrows seem to fit well with Yeonjin. I used it a lot when I did Yeonji," she said, drawing laughter.

    Lim Ji Yeon demonstrated on the spot in Yeon Jin's style in the weathercaster version, saying, "I saw many anchors doing it while doing the weathercaster."

    When asked if she watched the broadcast from the viewer's point of view, Lim Ji Yeon said, "Part 1 was so nervous that I only watched it once. But part 2 was so much fun that I watched part 3."

    With her favorite line and scene, Lim Ji Yeon made people laugh by saying, "I use it everywhere these days because I have a very exciting line."

    Lim Ji Yeon said, "I was very desperate during my acting years. In my 20s, the qualification of "Why don't I have anything" should be more persistent. I need to be more desperate.' "I didn't want to let go of acting," she said, looking back on his acting career.

    Lim Ji Yeon said, "My mom also said that 'I didn't give up' while watching the interview is touching. Our Ji Yeon cried every day and said, "Mom, I didn't want to quit," showing tears.

    When asked, "What kind of actor do you want to be remembered by the public?" Lim Ji Yeon said, "You are an actor of various colors.I will become an actor who tries every little thing," she said.

    Meanwhile, Lim Ji Yeon finishes "The Glory" and returns to her next work, tvN's "House with a Madang."
