Actress Park Gyu-young graced the cover of Elle‘s special digital project, ‘Elle D Edition’.

This pictorial captures Park Gyu-young’s signature brave and lovely face.

Having recently expanded her worldview once again through Netflix‘s ‘Squid Game Season 2’, she said about her eagerly awaited work, “No matter what the work, it’s inevitable to feel excited before its release. That‘s why I always try to leave behind only my thoughts and feelings about how I existed in this story, what kind of feelings I tried to show, and put everything else aside.”

Park Gyu-young, who has always played various women with a confident and confident expression, said about how she loves herself, “I’m human, so I can‘t always be perfect, but I think I repeat the process of discovering my shortcomings and feeling a little disappointed or hopeless about them. That’s why I try to sincerely love the way I am today, which is a little better than yesterday, and the way I have achieved by trying to overcome the battle with myself. “I believe that the more you repeat that effort, the more you will believe in yourself, and that will naturally show up as confidence,” she said.

Park Gyu-young’s digital cover, moving cover, beauty film, and video interview will be exclusively released on the Elle website and SNS channels. The full pictorial and interview can be found in the January issue of Elle.
