Actress Kim Yoon Jin talked about the secret to becoming successful in the United States. She stated that one needs to have 'confidence.'
Kim Yoon Jin appeared on the program, SBS 'Midnight TV Entertainment,' on the 22nd. She stated, "when I went to America, I thought, 'if i'm not successful here, then whatever,' I'm an active actor in Korea," and showed her confidence. She added, "I think it helped that I made it seem like I wasn't, and pretended that I was playing hard to get."
She stated, "in Korea, I often played the role of a mother that had a story, but in America, I played a single 38 year old. My partner in the drama was a 24 year old, so I became the older woman romantic fantasy," and made people laugh.
Then Kim Yoon Jin explained, "in the United States, since the names of the actors are long, they are instead called by numbers. The main character starts with the number 1 and depending on the character's importance, the numbers differ. On the drama, 'Lost,' I was number 6, but in this new drama, I became number 2."
