On February 22, a new video titled “So Ji Min Started Going Bad From Then..?” was uploaded to the YouTube channel “요정재형.” In the video, Han Ji Min candidly spoke about the harsh environment she faced as a rookie actress.
Recalling her time filming the drama “All In,” she confessed, “I wasn’t born talented at acting. I was scolded a lot. I cried every day when I went home.” She added, “I thought I shouldn’t cause trouble for others. I had never been scolded like that in my life.”
The most shocking anecdote involved a director’s excessive demands toward a rookie actor. Han Ji Min shared, “A certain director told a rookie actor, ‘The tear fell from your right eye earlier, so make it fall from the right side again this time.’” She raised her voice in disbelief, saying, “Does it make sense to control even the direction of tears?”
Unable to stay silent, she stepped in on behalf of the rookie. Han Ji Min revealed, “We’re not machines or robots. I told the director, ‘We are not machines.’”
When asked about the specific project during the explanation, she mentioned the year and even said the director’s name. At that moment, the broadcast urgently censored her lips with a mosaic effect, drawing laughter from viewers.
Born in 1982, Han Ji Min is currently in a public relationship with Choi Jung Hoon, a member of the band Jannabi, who is 10 years her junior. She has selected JTBC’s upcoming drama “The Practical Guide to Love” as her next project, raising anticipation among fans.
