Actor Lee Jung-eun said she overcame her phobia to film the movie 'A Woman in a White Car'.

Lee Jung-eun said at the press and distribution premiere of the movie `A Woman in a White Car' held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Ichon-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the 27th that `Hyun-joo is a friend who suffers trauma from water-related family violence' and `had to overcome the phobia of water in order to film this scene.'."

Released on the 29th, 'Woman in a White Car' is a suspense thriller in which Do-kyung, who came to the hospital with her bloody sister, makes a confusing statement to police Hyun-joo, approaching the truth of the day with the culprit whom everyone remembers differently, and is directed by Ko Hye-jin.




Lee Jung-eun played the role of police Hyun-joo, who digs into the dark truth of the case. He filmed "2022 with a lot of care despite the cold weather when COVID-19 was so severe."I took it just before the female narrative came out, and it was fun when I read the scenario. And most of all, it was fun to work with director Ko, who joined this film."

"It was an honor to be able to see the movie on the big screen," he said of how he felt about watching the movie in the theater. "I thought I had a hard time, but I think I had a hard time only with my mouth. The actors who filmed together also suffered a lot. I'm usually afraid of water, but Hyun-joo is a friend who suffers from trauma due to family violence with water. I thought I could die with my nose stuck in the water of a plate, and I was a little scared. Still, I was satisfied when I saw the results."
