Actor Cha Joo-young shot a pictorial for ‘Arena Homme Plus’.

As Hye-jeong in ‘The Glory’, and Queen Won-gyeong in ‘Won-gyeong’, actress Cha Joo-young, who showed distinctly different sides of herself depending on her role, showed off her confident and deadly charm through this pictorial. Standing in front of the camera, she showed off her complex sides with various expressions and poses. Sometimes she filled the frame with a dazzling presence, and sometimes with confidence.

She then shared her thoughts on portraying the life of a character in ‘Won-gyeong’ through an interview.

“I was really sincere. While acting, I sometimes did each cut like a quest in terms of technique, but in the end, whenever there was no answer, I pushed forward with the thought that no one would do it as sincerely as I did. It was a huge challenge for me to see if that sincerity would be conveyed to the viewers.”

She also revealed her aspirations for the various sides she will show in the future.

“The works I‘ve already shot will probably be different, but I also want to tell stories about the lives of ordinary people. I feel like I’m always looking for things that are stimulating, but somehow I decided to do that. I also want to tell stories that seem boring and lack stimulating points. I think I haven‘t really shown you a side of myself yet.”
