Actress Yoo Hee-je, who left a strong impression on viewers with her differentiated villainous performance in "Connection", expressed her desire to be remembered by the public in a more colorful way from the behind-the-scenes of filming the drama.

Recently, actor Yoo Hee-je met with Sports Chosun somewhere in Mapo-gu, Seoul, and held an interview to commemorate the end of 'Connection'.

Yoo Hee-je played Gong Jin-wook, a character related to Jang Jae-kyung's drug addiction, in SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 「Connection」 (script Lee Hyun, director Kim Moon-kyo), which ended on the 6th.

At the meeting, Yoo Hee-je expressed his gratitude to all the actors and staff who worked hard for the good work"The work that was filmed with hot passion in the cold winter is the hot summer?? I was very happy to receive a lot of love for my cool suspense and cool development. Above all, it seems that the viewers' interest in Gong Jin-wook has maximized his mystery," he said, expressing his appreciation.

Next, regarding the collaboration with actor Ji Sung, a senior actor, "The senior actor had a lot of passion for his work, so I was able to see his efforts to shoot each scene delicately and intensively."It seemed that he had a good influence on my fellow actors as well as me." I was able to learn a lot and get some energy."

As for the point where I was worried about playing a character who was addicted to drugs, I discussed a lot with the director about setting a charismatic and heavy tone," he said. He went on to say, `I also tried to show my bond with my younger brothers in the play.'

It also told the story of Gong Jin-wook's facial scar. Yoo Hee-je said " and "I thought it would be nice to be deeply embedded in the viewers' minds, so I decided to dress up as a scar after discussing it with the makeup team."

When asked about the synchronicity between the real personality with the character Gong Jin-wook, Yoo Hee-je said, `At some point, I think I have a sense of weight and charisma. I tend to be more cheerful." Then "I thought he was a character who took good care of the younger brothers, but I think so, too."I don't want to take care of it lightly, but I think they look alike in taking care of it silently."

There are also concerns about the character limitations of showing a series of intense character acting. "I'm happy that the industry and the public can remember me because I've been playing strong characters one after another, but I definitely have a need to show more colorful sides," he said. I think that's my homework"I'm thinking about what kind of work would be good for the next chapter in terms of acting."
