Actor Lee Jung-eun (54), who fascinated viewers' eyes and ears as a middle-aged detective through "In a Forest Where There's No One," revealed the behind-the-scenes story that she devoted herself to shooting practice to fully digest the role she has been waiting for.

Lee Jung-eun met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 27th and responded to an interview for the Netflix series `In the Forest Where There Is No One.'

'In a Forest With No One's Home' is a suspense thriller about people whose serene daily life collapses and becomes involved in an uncontrollable event due to a suspicious guest who comes to the middle of summer.

In the play, Lee Jung-eun played Yoon Bo-min, a former police chief from Ace, a violent class who relentlessly penetrates the case and thinks and solves the case as a kind of play.

Regarding the appearance of shots from various composition in the play in line with the modifier "strong squad ace," Lee Jung-eun was surprised by saying that she practiced shooting hard. He said "I visited Myeong-dong and Gyeonggi-do in person and shot a lot because scenes of shooting horror and live bullets appear in the play." Then "It seemed that there were not many scenes of female police shooting themselves, so I asked the shooting teacher for advice and help."."

He also considered the styling part for the middle-aged female detective who focuses all his energy on solving the clues to the case. Lee Jung-eun said, `The director loved how he was wearing a sweaty cotton T-shirt and focusing only on the case.' `Bomin, a friend of mine, spends all of his time putting on makeup and styling his hair, so I wanted to emphasize those parts.'

He also mentioned that he had been waiting for a role like 'Bomin' at the previous production presentation. Lee Jung-eun "Aren't the actors who are said to be good at acting on Netflix and in the US taking on the roles of police officers and detectives from directors. As soon as I thought it would be nice to take on such a role for a long time, I was offered an offer, so I decided to appear."

In the play, he also revealed behind-the-scenes stories about Bo Min's many implications. Lee Jung-eun "There are many gods that have been omitted even after filming because of the directing part. It's a scene where Bo Min lives her daily life with her husband and child, and she seems to have decided that Bo Min may not be highlighted because it is a part of her intense concern about the incident in the play. It's like a decision you made to go compressively."

Meanwhile, 'In the Forest Where There Is No One' was released on Netflix on the 23rd.
