Inside of Director Lee Byeong-hoon's works, there are noticeable actresses.

Actresses such as Lee Young-ae, Hwang Soo-jeong, Park Eun-hye, and Han Ji-min have formed a upright image as a top star through Director Lee Byeong-hoon's historical dramas. Actresses that have gone through 'Midas' hands' are all brilliant.

MBC "Dae Jang Geum"is a rare work that has spread to the world. And Lee Young-ae is in the midst of that. Lee Young-ae, who has laid the foundation for her image as a court lady and a nurse in "Dae Jang Geum", became a national actress and a worldwide star.

Kim Yeo-jin also acted as the evil character and confirmed her abilities.

MBC historical drama "Yi San", which has been a top drama for nine months, has two episodes left from its total 77 episodes. Han Ji-min, who played Seong Song-yeon, the woman that the king loved, matured as an actress through this drama.

Song-yeon, who became a royal concubine, left the world on the 2nd by a disease, and made Yi San and all the viewers sad. The viewers' board overflowed with messages like "Please revive Song-yeon" and "If Song-yeon dies, what pleasure is there in watching?" It's because they were empathizing with the character of Song-yeon.

During the press conference, Director Lee Byeong-hoon said that Han Ji-min was "a bright actress with a clean appearance". Her small body frame incites men to protect her, her soft and pretty face, and the tears that flow from her sad eyes are still in viewers' memories. We had a phone interview with Han Ji-min as she was moving to her last filming on the 7th.

-You're filming even though Song-yeon is dead?
-Although she is...| More
