Actress Yoon Yeo-jeong shows off her overwhelming charisma.

Yoon Yeo-jeong catches the eye by showing off her natural aura through the cover of the January issue of fashion magazine ‘Harper‘s Bazaar’.

On the 17th, Harper’s Bazaar released a cover photo that focuses on the aura of Yoon Yeo-jeong, who has broken the stereotypes and image that usually comes to mind when thinking of “‘actress’, and has established her own filmography, and has now risen to the ranks of world-class celebrities.

In the photo, Yoon Yeo-jeong catches the eye by elegantly wearing Tiffany & Co.‘s gorgeous high jewelry.

She also perfectly pulled off maxi coats, structured jackets, and white suits that even professional models find difficult to pull off, showing off a ‘cool’ fashion style that makes it hard to believe that she is 77 years old.
Yoon Yeo-jeong also showed off her signature charisma in an interview conducted along with the pictorial.

She also spoke directly about appearing in Season 2 of Netflix’s ‘Angry People.

“It feels like my arms are bending inward. I‘m instinctively drawn to works made by Korean-Americans and those friends. I’ve had several meetings with director Lee Sung-jin, and he told me that he wanted to tell a story through me. It‘s interesting because he has a different perspective from Korean directors. In Korea, I’m usually cast to play the role of a grandmother. But since they‘ve lived in a completely different world, their perspective on me is quite different. I’m usually a very conservative person. In life. But strangely, I am good at taking on challenges in my work. Maybe because I live a life that seems to be measured by a ruler, that kind of adventurous spirit works in my work.”

He also talked about the driving force that keeps him going even after 58 years of acting.

“I thought about it too. Wouldn’t it be better to just retire? Even when I’m lying down at home, I can’t read a book for more than an hour. My eyes hurt too. In the end, my daily life is the most important. How many people around me are sick? That’s what they want to live for the most. It’s not that I’m greedy for something else, but I think that at the last moment, I’d like to just get out of this hospital and walk. Being an actor is my daily life. That’s why I want to do my best in any role that comes to me. That‘s how I live my daily life.

He doesn’t like the title ‘artist,’ but he‘s ’okay‘ with the title ’craftsman.‘

”I don’t know if someone will say, ‘That woman was an artist,’ after I die, but it seems a bit excessive now. But I also want to be a craftsman. If I‘ve walked the same path for 60 years, I deserve to be treated as a craftsman.“
