At the 30th Busan International Film Festival Actors House held at Sohyang Theater Shinhan Card Hall in Haeundae-gu, Busan on the 18th, Son Ye-jin said, `I was worried if I could get married, have a child, and appear in a great movie.' `Whenever I did, I tried to follow in the footsteps of Yoon Yeo-jeong, Kim Hee-ae, and Kim Hye-soo.'
Son Ye-jin married actor Hyun Bin in March 2022 and has a son. It's been seven years since the movie 'Negotiation' 'There's nothing we can do about itReturning to the screen with ', he was worried if he would be able to get married, have children, and appear in great works. When I thought about the future as an actor, I didn't think it would be the same. There was some anxiety. I thought a lot about whether I could do melodrama again as before or whether people would find it. In the midst of such anxiety, seeing the footsteps of Yoon Yeo-jung, Kim Hee-ae, and Kim Hye-soo, I thought 'Of course, I must have a way too'"I thought that by then, I would be able to grow up nicely and show you in-depth acting. Then 'There's nothing I can do about itI met ' and went to the scene, and I was so happy with my work. If you felt pressure, responsibility, and pressure before that, you could enjoy the scene more with director Park Chan-wook and senior Lee Byung-hun this time. Also, since it's the role of a child's mother, I think I experienced it myself. In the meantime, if I had acted as a mother just in my imagination, I had a belief that it would not be awkward even if I didn't do something this time, he said.
Meanwhile, the 30th Busan International Film Festival will be held for 10 days from the 17th to the 26th around the Film Center in Haeundae-gu, Busan.
