The strength of the beauty who admits she is not as beautiful as Song Hye Kyo

2024 is considered a productive year for Lim Ji Yeon with many new works released. Most recently, on August 7, the movie "Revolver" (Revenge of the Female Fighter) in which she stars alongside Jeon Do Yeon and Ji Chang Wook officially hit theaters in Korea.

The work marks the return to the big screen of Lee Do Hyun's girlfriend after 3 years, since the movie "Spiritwalker" (2021).

During those 3 years, Lim Ji Yeon has achieved many impressive achievements in her career. Especially her collaboration with Song Hye Kyo in the movie “The Glory” and Kim Tae Hee in “Lies Hidden in My Garden”.

Star News newspaper commented that the star born in 1990 had an impressive performance as the villain in these two projects and was recognized for his diverse acting.

Sharing more about the new project, Lim Ji Yeon said that the participation of directors Oh Seung Wook and Jeon Do Yeon was the reason why she quickly agreed to participate. "I want to feel the atmosphere that both of them bring and learn more from the seniors."

According to the actress, the character she plays in “Revolver” is Jung Yoon Sun - a mysterious woman with high self-esteem. And thanks to Yoon Sun, she begins to love herself more.

“I am someone who always feels a lot of insecurity. Thoughts like ‘I am not an actor who enjoys what I am doing so I need to prepare a lot’ or ‘I am not an actor who can fly high’ about myself often pop into my head.

If I prepare 200%, I can only do 20% on set. With that in mind, I prepare even more. However, on the set of “Revolver,” I decided to let go of all that intense preparation and just enjoy the joy of acting. I was also surprised to see the results.”

Lim Ji Yeon confessed that because she debuted too early in the 19+ movie - "Obsessed" (2014), for a while she struggled with losing her social skills and not knowing the true meaning of appropriate scenes.

“I don’t know what my appeal is as an actress. I’m not as pretty as Song Hye Kyo. However, I’ve realized now that my face can express a lot.

I can look beautiful, or ugly, or whatever, whenever I want. I also have many different tones, which I believe is my strength as an actor.”

According to the Korean beauty, acting is an interesting job and she wants to continue pursuing it. “Even when I’m resting, I still join the acting study group. I’m very greedy so I don’t think I want to rest right now.”

Along with that, the actress also expressed gratitude when mentioning her boyfriend Lee Do Hyun - who is performing military service. According to Lim Ji Yeon, although they do not often interfere in each other's personal affairs, they always wholeheartedly support each other.
