Actor Lim Soo-jung (46) met Fine and opened a new door for acting.

Disney+ Original Series 'Fine: The Villagers' (played by Kang Yoon-sung and Ahn Seung-hwan, directed by Kang Yoon-sung) tells the story of the gullible and hardworking villagers who flocked to take over a treasure ship buried in the sea in 1977. Is Lim Soo-jung the two chairman of the chaebol in the drama? He played his wife, Yang Jung-sook. He was an employee who worked as an accountant for the company, but became a wife after the chairman's wife died. In particular, he is said to have shown amazing acting transformations as a person who reveals his desire for money.

Lim Soo-jung met with Sports Chosun on the morning of the 19th and said, "I'm happy to hear that I'm No. 1 on Disney+ for 31 days, and I'm happy that you seem to be generally giving me good reviews on the work. I am grateful that I did not miss all the actors who participated, and that I felt a lot of sympathy, interest, and charm for all the actors and Yang Jung-sook, who I played" first expressed his feelings. In fact, 'Fine' has maintained such a heated response that it is constantly being mentioned among viewers.




Yang Jung-sook's charm played by Lim Soo-jung also played a part in the hot popularity of 'Fine'. Starting with Gyeong-ri, Yang Jung-sook, who took over the position of Chairman Cheon's private wife, appeared as an opportunist and a person who retained his desire, and even controlled 'Fine'. Lim Soo-jung has shown particular strength in romance dramas due to her beauty and innocent atmosphere, but she transformed into a scary character Yang Jung-sook through 'Fine', giving viewers a twist.

Lim Soo-jung said, "At first, when I received the offer of 'Fine', the CEO of the production company asked me to look at the original work by Yoon Tae-ho. Yang Jung-sook in the original is a really scary person. By nature, he is a vicious man, an opportunist, and clever. I met the director once because the character was very different from the character I had been doing. 'How did you make such a proposal to me. I asked him, 'What made you offer me this?' and he said, "I think I thought I could participate in the work because a woman named Yang Jung-sook, interpreted by the director, said, 'I want to be a smart woman who can control men with charisma that doesn't lose to rough men and demonstrate a strategic aspect.'"

Lim Soo-jung then said "When I was offered the work, I wanted to do it at once, but I think I wanted to ask the director's intention because it was different from the role I had played so far. If you listen to what I wanted to cast and bring out the actor, it will help you capture the character. We had that conversation in the beginning, and then I got the hang of it and made Yang Jung-suk, and as the director said, the first and second parts are 'Action' and 'Cut' and then they come to me and 'Your eyes are so niceHe did it. So I was like, 'What should I do?I did. I had that aspect in the previous episode, but I was lucky to be immersed in the character while talking to the director a lot, and after that, I was able to play the character without much disagreement with the director.




Lim Soo-jung, who has consistently revealed her dreams of villainizing and villainizing. That dream came true through Yang Jeong-suk. Lim Soo-jung said, `I want to try to play villain or villain while interviewing people in their 20s and 30sI've been talking about ' a lot. It occurred to me that I was always talking about it. There are not many opportunities for such characters for female actors, so maybe I want to play a villain and play a villain, showing that I want to do more genre works. So when 'Fine's proposal came, I was overjoyed. I definitely thought it would be fun, but every moment of filming was fun. Since I had fun, it was well contained and the result was good. I think the viewers didn't feel that it was different from the actor, but that they watched it with a mindset of 'What, it looks good on you'. I'm thinking that acting must be fun. Acting is fun these days. Even from the time I did 'fine', I had so much fun working on it, and just as it is not easy to say that acting is fun, the point of concern is still found and we have to solve it. But joy, it's most pleasing and fun to feel that you're still alive. I couldn't help being in the acting scene, and I thought I had to act."

He has achieved his dream of becoming a villain with 'Fine', but he dreams of a bigger twist and development. Lim Soo-jung said, `It is true that there was a desire and desire as an actor to show a new face. In fact, it's always homework, and as an actor, I have to break this once in a while and I have to show a new face. Still, I am very grateful for showing a positive response to my challenge and looking at it. I'm most happy about that part because Lim Soo-jung seems to show that she can expect an expanded role now. "Now I want to play a different role." I'm trying to expand into acting, so I want to try a different resolution character or villain. I wonder what it would be like to have a cool feeling. In fact, Yang Jung-sook has quite a few expressions. At first glance, he is immature and cute. You know you're smart, but you're mistaken. I feel sorry for the character Yang Jung-sook and I want to support her. So this time, if I meet a really cool and flawless character without that aspect, I want to try it" he said.

After finishing 'fine', Lim Soo-jung attempts to transform through 'How to survive as a building owner in Korea'. Director Lim Pil-sung of the movie `Persona' directed by writer Oh Han-ki, who debuted as a novelist and introduced 'Baggett boy soldier'Human Manse' for the first time, will challenge the script of the drama. Expectations are also high for the change of Lim Soo-jung, who will meet them and be renewed.
