Park Ji-hyun of ‘Hidden Face’ spoke honestly about the challenge of acting nude.

On the afternoon of the 13th, a press conference for the movie ‘Hidden Face’ was held in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Actors Song Seung-heon, Jo Yeo-jeong, Park Ji-hyun, and director Kim Dae-woo attended the press conference that day.

Park Ji-hyun, who took on an unconventional challenge such as acting nude in this movie, said, “If you say challenge, you could say it was a huge challenge as an actor. But as an actor, when I look at a project and read a scenario, I always think about ‘Will I be able to digest the character well?’. I didn‘t calculate the exposure or anything like that. I’d be lying if I said I didn‘t feel any pressure. “The burden I had was not so much that I was confident that I could express that scene well as the character Mi-ju on set and on screen,” he said.

He then said, “I gained confidence through a lot of communication and conversation with my seniors and the director. It was also a piece where I learned so much while acting. I felt loved on set. I have no fear of the results. I gained a lot from the process, so I am satisfied with that alone.”

Meanwhile, ‘Hidden Face’ is a unique locked-room thriller that unfolds as Sung-jin (Song Seung-heon) is chasing after his missing fiancée Soo-yeon (Jo Yeo-jeong) when Soo-yeon’s junior Mi-ju (Park Ji-hyun) appears in front of him, and Soo-yeon, who he thought had disappeared, witnesses her bare face being stripped away while trapped in a secret space closest to them. Opening on the 20th.
