Yoo Ah In once impressed netizens with his protective attitude towards a junior actress.
Yoo Ah In and Jeon Jong Seo starred in Lee Chang Dong’s 2018 film “Burning” together.
Two years later, on October 6th, 2022, the two attended the 31st Buil Film Awards to honor Best Actor and Best Actress winners as they won the awards with “Voice of the Silence” and “The Call”, separately, at the award ceremony in the previous year.
Meeting Jeon Jong Seo after a long time, Yoo Ah In said, “It took me more than 10 years to get a chance to play a lead role, but this friend (Jeon Jong Seo) was able to appear in a movie as a main character as soon as she debuted. Jeon Jong Seo has a pure heart and she tends to keep her feelings for herself. However, people who can’t accept her seem to have misunderstood her. Seeing this friend becoming intimidated, my heart hurt”, sending a supportive message to Jeon Jong Seo.
Previously, Jeon Jong Seo appeared at the Cannes Film Festival together with “Burning” team. She was completely shocked by the overwhelming attention from reporters. However, some media outlets published articles highlighting the actress’s awkward expression at that moment.
Not long after her debut, Jeon Jong Seo eventually had to release an apology.
Yoo Ah In tried to comfort Jeon Jong Seo, who looked more reserved after that incident, and emphasized that he was proud to see her achieve many awards and become a top star. Jeon Jong Seo also thanked her senior, saying Yoo Ah In helped her a lot during the filming and promotion of “Burning”.
Meanwhile, Yoo Ah In is being investigated by the police on suspicions of habitually administering propofol and has been banned from leaving the country since February 8th.
