[Ask an Actor] Jo Yeo-jung

We’ve been busy behind the scenes with the BeanieBox, but that doesn’t mean we took a break from working to land interviews for our Ask an Actor series. Our next interview will be with Jo Yeo-jung!

Jo Yeo-jung made her acting debut in 2003 and has been in a number of critically acclaimed films and dramas. Jo’s most recent drama was the heart-breaking melo, A Beautiful World, and her most recent film was the darkly comedic thriller, Parasite. Directed by Bong Joon-ho, Parasite made history by becoming the first Korean film to win the Cannes Film Festival’s highest honor, the Palme D’or. In Korea, Jo Yeo-jung won Best Actress at the Chunsa Film Art Awards for her role as Yeon-gyo.

If you have any questions for Jo Yeo-jung, leave them in the comments! We’ll select some of the most interesting questions and include them in our interview.

Hello!! Nice to meet you! I saw Parasite in Tallinn. The audience enjoyed it. At first everyone was laughing a lot. I wonder if the funny parts were meant for us to "lose guard" like your character did. Why do you think Yeon-kyo trusted everybody this easily? And what is the most important thing you learned from the story?

1.I've seen you in a wonderful variety of roles, such as from the first installment of I Need Romance to Parasite! And your characters often leave a deep impression!

Do you have a character that you played that you felt a great affinity with, or left a lasting impression on you?
