On March 12th, on the Daum cafe “Women’s Generation”, an article about actresses Yoon Da Kyung and Lim Ji Yeon, who appear as mother and daughter in “The Glory”, was published.
In the article, the writer mentioned that the duo also played the role of mother and daughter in the 2014 movie “Obsessed”.
“Obsessed”, which is Lim Ji Yeon’s debut film, depicts a scandal involving military training captain Kim Jin Pyeong (Song Seung Heon), his subordinate Kyong Woo Jin (On Joo Wan), Kim Jin Pyeong’s wife Lee Sook Jin (Jo Yeo Jeong), and Kyong Woo Jin’s wife Jong Ga Heun (Lim Ji Yeon) during the Vietnam War in 1969. The movie is directed by Kim Dae Woo, who worked on “The Witch”.
In “Obsessed”, actress Yoon Da Kyung transformed into the biological mother of Jong Ga Heun, who shamelessly abandoned her family after her husband fell ill, and had the audacity to return when her daughter becomes an adult.
Regarding her debut film, Lim Ji Yeon said in an interview with Vogue Korea on March 3rd that,
“It is the first feature-length film that I starred in, so it is the work I am most attached to. There are many memories and many precious memories. However, I don’t have the confidence to watch my acting at the time and that movie again. I’ll watch it alone at home someday.”
Netizens who learned that actors Lim Ji Yeon and Yoon Da Kyung played a mother-daughter relationship before couldn’t hide their surprise, and left comments such as, “They weren’t a normal mother and daughter in that movie either”, and “They have an intense mother-daughter relationships in both films”.
Meanwhile, in “The Glory”, Lim Ji Yeon played Park Yeon Jin, who mercilessly bullied female lead Moon Dong Eun (Song Hye Kyo) in high school.
Meanwhile, Yoon Da Kyung plays Yeon Jin’s mother, Hong Young Ae, who blindly believes in shamanism. She tells Park Yeon Jin to beware of people with “ㅇ” in their names, while accumulating her wealth by connecting young women with older men through a shaman service. Afterwards, due to the revenge plan set up by Moon Dong Eun, the two of them face a miserable end side by side.
