A talk that reaches the actor through deep, steady breathing, like a detox. The actors Lee Hwa-jung meets in her film journalism.
▶ The meeting with actor Lee Yeon continues from Part 1. ​〈Juvenile Judgment〉 is a different situation, but it’s a portrayal of the dark side of teenage youths. I can imagine that darkness running counter to Lee Yeon’s brightness must have felt overwhelming.
