In a resounding testament to her acting prowess, actress Go Hyun Jung's remarkable performance in the Netflix original series 'Mask Girl' continues to garner accolades.

'Mask Girl' weaves a captivating narrative around the life of Kim Momi, an unassuming office worker burdened by appearance insecurities.

By night, she transforms into an enigmatic internet broadcaster known as a BJ (streamer), concealing her identity behind a mask.

As the series unfolds, Kim Momi becomes unwittingly embroiled in a series of unforeseen events that redefine her existence.

Go Hyun Jung's portrayal of the third iteration of Kim Momi within the 'Mask Girl' storyline has captivated audiences with her poignant and riveting acting, culminating in an enthralling conclusion to the narrative.

Recently released behind-the-scenes stills offer a glimpse into Go Hyun Jung's fervent dedication to her craft.

Engaged in daring stunts that involve scaling prison walls, she fearlessly immerses herself in her character's challenges.

Additionally, the stills capture moments of intense concentration alongside director Kim Yong Hoon, reflecting the actress's commitment to perfecting each scene.

Stepping into the role of Kim Momi, a middle-aged woman known within the series as prisoner number 1047, Ko Hyun-jung navigates the intricacies of a challenging prison life.

Her character, an outsider to the prison's authoritative figure, Ahn Eun-sook, devises her own means of finding tranquility amidst the chaos.

However, an unexpected letter from beyond the prison walls prompts Kim Momi to embark on a determined path towards escape.

Reflecting on her exceptional performance in 'Mask Girl,' Go Hyun Jung shared, "The concept of a single role portrayed by three different individuals was truly intriguing. Drawing from over three decades of acting experience, I deliberately avoided relying on familiar expressions and gestures. My focus was on portraying Momi, not Ko Hyun-jung."

Her revelation underscores the depth of effort invested in delivering a transformative portrayal in 'Mask Girl.'

The inclusion of accomplished star Go Hyun Jung in the series, known for her distinguished filmography encompassing titles like 'Hourglass,' 'Queen Seondeok,' 'Daemul,' 'Queen's Classroom,' and 'Dear My Friends,' came as an unexpected surprise to both viewers and director Kim Yong-hoon.

Director Kim Yong Hoon remarked, "Several scenes demanded physicality, including moments where the character confronted asphalt head-on—a challenge Ko Hyun-jung embraced wholeheartedly. Witnessing her dine with her face adorned in dirt or blood makeup, I was deeply moved and grateful for her unwavering dedication."

Currently available for streaming on Netflix, 'Mask Girl' stands as a testament to Go Hyun Jung's remarkable talent and commitment to her craft, delivering a gripping and unforgettable viewing experience.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
