Renowned South Korean actress Lim Ji Yeon has candidly shared her struggles with the overwhelming pressure that comes with her recent surge in popularity.

The actress made the revealing confession during a guest appearance on tvN's hit entertainment show 'You Quiz On The Block,' which aired on August 2nd.

Lim Ji Yeon's presence on the show captured the attention of viewers and fans alike, thanks to her successful performances in the dramas 'The Glory' and 'House with a Yard.' The talented actress proudly revealed that her social media following had skyrocketed, growing an astonishing tenfold since her newfound fame.

However, beneath the surface of her flourishing career and growing fan base, Lim Ji Yeon disclosed a less glamorous reality. "Lately, I'm afraid of the love and attention I receive. What if I disappoint them? I'm still scared of going to the filming set. In fact, the night before shooting important scenes, I often stay up all night," she shared honestly.

During the episode, popular host Yoo Jae Seok empathized with Lim Ji Yeon, understanding the complexity of her emotions.

He pointed out how she tries to put on a brave face, to which she responded, "That's why I'm trying to prepare more. Even though it might be exhausting, I can't help but feel that not doing so is not an option."

The actress then drew parallels between her feelings and an interview she once saw with veteran actor Hwang Jung Min on the same show.

Hwang Jung Min had reflected on his past, confessing that in his younger days, he pushed himself relentlessly to showcase his talent, but as he matured, he learned to let go and find joy in his craft.

Lim Ji Yeon felt that she related to those sentiments, admitting, "Right now, I feel like I'm pushing myself too hard. The obsession with 'It has to be this way' is also making it difficult for me."

Yoo Jae Seok provided comforting words, drawing upon Hwang Jung-min's experiences, and said, "(Regarding Hwang Jung Min) On one hand, he went through such a tough time, so of course, he can say that."

Nevertheless, Lim Ji Yeon expressed her ongoing stress, revealing, "I was certain that I would let go of this project, but the night before shooting, I felt so crazy." Her heartfelt confession struck a chord with the audience, eliciting sympathy and support.

Lim Ji Yeon's openness about her struggles serves as a reminder of the immense pressure faced by celebrities in the limelight.

Her courage to discuss these challenges candidly may pave the way for more open conversations about the mental and emotional well-being of public figures.

As her fans rally behind her, many hope that she will find solace and balance amid the relentless demands of fame.

Actress Ji Ye Eun recently shared her honest thoughts about working with BTS's Jin and how their relationship grew during filming.

On April 29, a video titled “Actually, Ji Ye Eun doesn’t know how to curse—riding in one car with her” was uploaded on VIVO TV’s YouTube channel. In the video, Ji Ye Eun opened up about her experience filming the Netflix show Fishing Brothers: Season of Crazy Fun (Daehwanjang Gianjang).

She revealed that she got her boat license just for the show. “After trying it on the Han River, I felt confident about the driving part. It was actually easier than I thought. But the written test was so hard,” she said. “It’s completely different from driving a car, so it was confusing. I took the test so many times that the people at the test center started to recognize me and even wished me good luck. I went almost every two days,” she said, laughing.

Ji Ye Eun also shared how happy she was with the show’s success. “As of filming day, I heard the show was ranked third. I really care about that kind of thing. Since we all worked so hard, I hope more people watch and enjoy it.”

When asked by Song Eun I if she got close to castmates Gian 84 and Jin, she responded honestly. “Even though we didn’t spend a long time together, we went through a lot and got close. At first, I didn’t know how to talk to Jin oppa. He’s a world star, so I was nervous. I even worried I’d get hate comments for being near him. But once filming started, those worries disappeared,” she said.

Ji Ye Eun then made everyone laugh by adding, “Jin oppa and I became like real siblings. We argued a lot, and Gian 84 oppa had to stop us!”

Meanwhile, Ji Ye Eun is currently appearing on SBS’s Running Man, continuing to grow her popularity on variety shows.
