Actress Park Shin-hye shared her honest story about the changes in her life and acting career after marriage and childbirth.
On the 10th, the YouTube channel "Weekend with Yoo Yeon-seok" featured guests Park Shin-hye and Ha Yoon-kyung, who had a special time with host Yoo Yeon-seok. Park Shin-hye reminisced about her past with Yoo Yeon-seok, recalling their collaboration 11 years ago in the movie "The Royal Tailor" where they played the roles of the King and Queen.
Known in the past as a representative of hobbies in the entertainment industry, Park Shin-hye drew attention by mentioning her lifestyle changes. She revealed that she used to enjoy dynamic sports like golf, snowboarding, and surfing, but now she only enjoys golf. She shared that in her 20s, she was the type to go out and seek healing, but now in her 30s, she prefers staying at home, reflecting a more settled daily life.
She also revealed an interesting backstory related to her acting debut. Park Shin-hye, who originally had no interest in the entertainment industry, explained that she got the opportunity to audition after church acquaintances, who were fans of singer Lee Seung-hwan, submitted her photo when she was in the first year of middle school. She started her trainee life preparing to be a singer but received an offer to act, and after passing her first audition for the drama "Stairway to Heaven," she began her journey as a child actress.
She expressed her thirst for more diverse roles. Having played various professional roles such as a doctor, judge, and lawyer, Park Shin-hye mentioned that she has yet to portray a prosecutor, detective, or teacher, expressing her disappointment. When asked about her desire to play a villain, she humorously shared that she is confident she could do well, but casting opportunities have not come her way, and despite her efforts to act tough, people around her just laugh.
Ha Yoon-kyung, who appeared alongside her, also expressed her love for independent films, emphasizing the diversity of themes and the joy of the production process. She expressed gratitude for the good image she gained after the drama "Extraordinary Attorney Woo," but like Park Shin-hye, she also expressed her ambition to challenge herself with a new villain character.
Meanwhile, Park Shin-hye married fellow actor Choi Tae-joon in 2022 and has a son, continuing her active career with her unchanged beauty and acting skills.
