When asked how she attempted to approach the character of ‘Mi-ju’, who harbors a hidden desire, she said, “I tend to project a lot of myself into characters. In the end, any character comes through me, so in the case of ‘Mi-ju, I tried to overlap with myself as much as possible. I think of things that I have that are similar to ‘Mi-ju, and I add things that ‘Mi-ju’ has. I don’t try to clearly separate the character from myself,“ she said, showing her sincerity about acting as she explained her method for expressing ‘Mi-ju.

She also mentioned that director Kim Dae-woo, who she first worked with in the movie ‘Hidden Face, said that she was an ”actor who was confident in herself.“ Park Ji-hyun said, ”When I was a rookie, I was vaguely afraid of auditions and such, but I just thought about how I could look good. However, I never thought about creating good synergy,“ and ”At some point, I started to encourage myself with the mindset of, ‘Watch carefully, I’m going to show you my acting from now on. This is my performance.‘ That’s why I think the director must have seen confidence in me,“ she confessed.
