Speaking of NSFW scenes, the actress also shared how her parents reacted upon seeing her first movie.

According to Lim Ji Yeon, she was worried that her parents would find it too sexy for her since, at the time, she was "too young" for the role.

The actress mentioned that she's expecting that they will comment negatively and "was so afraid" of how her parents would feel to see her portraying provocative scenes.

"I was very worried about my mother. What if she finds me embarrassing, becomes scared of me, or gets hurt?" she said.

However, her worries died down after hearing what her mother said about her.

Lim Ji Yeon revealed that her mother brought her a bouquet and commented, "My Jiyeon is so pretty."

Although it was a challenging role for her, all her hard work paid off after seeing the support of her family.

"I think that power has a really big impact on me. I was able to not give up and keep on acting because of my mom's support, just like what she did that day," she furthered.
