Actress Song Ha-yoon captivated viewers with her ‘unfamiliar face’ 20 years after her debut. Having played her lovely and friendly roles, he instantly overturned her previous image and impressed viewers with another Song Ha-yoon. It is through the tvN drama ‘Marry My Husband’.

The drama ‘Marry My Husband’ tells the story of a woman who was murdered after witnessing her husband’s affair with her best friend, goes back in time 10 years and takes revenge by experiencing the second episode of her life.

In the play, Song Ha-yoon played the role of Jeong Soo-min, a wicked woman who commits an affair with Kang Ji-won’s (Park Min-young) best friend and her husband Park Min-hwan (Lee Yi-gyeol) and eventually murders him. It was her first villainous role in over 20 years since her debut.

“I didn’t think that Sumin would receive this much love. Because she was a strong villain, I just thought, ‘I need to embrace her well.’ It seemed like (Jung Soo-min’s character) would get a lot of criticism from the director, so I should embrace her well. , I said that I would try to live a good life (as Jeong Soo-min). I went into it with that mindset. But surprisingly, the response was very enthusiastic. Even though Jeong Soo-min was criticized, Song Ha-yoon was not criticized.”


Song Ha-yoon, who has played good roles so far,’s unconventional work and character selection stimulated fans’ curiosity. As she herself said that she was a “difficult character to understand,” I was curious as to why she chose the role of “Su-min.”

“Personally, I was feeling ‘boredom’ about my face, character, and acting pattern. Then, I read the script for ‘Marry My Husband’ and was greatly shocked. There was really no one around Jeong Soo-min. “I thought, ‘Jung Soo-min should be protected by Song Ha-yoon. I should embrace her,’ and that’s when I decided to appear.”

Song Ha-yoon, who took on the role of a villain for the first time, thought about Sumin in a different way than before. He pushed himself to the limit and tried to get closer to the character by becoming lonely.

“He bullied me so much. He constantly tried to persuade me to live as Su-min Jeong. At first, I didn’t accept it very well. Even when I read the script, I was still feeling rejected. I tried to understand Su-min’s loneliness, and in fact, I tried to understand human relationships as well. I stayed organized. I also deleted Instagram. (In Instagram) I felt that if Song Ha-yoon lived, Su-min Jeong would not be able to live. I think people watching the drama would also be disturbed. I deleted all the apps and cut off contact, only focusing on Sumin. “I’ve been watching it.”

After thinking for a moment, he recalled the past days when he had pushed himself, saying, “It was my first time playing a villain, so I didn’t know how.”

“It was very cruel, but I did everything I could. I think I took Song Ha-yoon’s misfortune and used it to make Su-min Jeong happy.”

Song Ha-yoon’s acting, which brought out extreme emotions, made viewers clap their tongues and say, ‘It’s a show of acting skills.’ She explained that when Song Ha-yoon was in front of the camera, she was completely immersed in the character, saying, “She even lost her memory.”

“I don’t know. I really don’t remember. The strange thing is that there was a director and several staff members on set, but when I heard the word ‘action’, I felt like I was drawn into another world. It was as if I had completely become Sumin, including the staff and cameras. “I couldn’t see it. There were many times when I came to my senses when I heard the sound of ‘cut’ and I couldn’t remember (acting) and I was exhausted.”

It was truly grueling. Song Ha-yoon’s affection for the work and role was beyond imagination. As an actress who lived solely as Jeong Soo-min for a year, she seemed to feel deep and deep emotions with her whole body.

“I’m experiencing the aftereffects. It’s still going on. In the one year that I lived as Sumin, I’ve never said the words ‘I’m having a hard time’ or ‘I’m lonely’ out loud. I felt like I would completely break down if I said those feelings out loud. I was really persistent. “I was in the same state of mind as Jeong Soo-min (during filming) and didn’t even shed a tear. I would say I was very rational. But after filming was over, my human emotions were slowly coming back. It seems like I’m back to myself again.”

Jeong Soo-min left a deep mark on Song Ha-yoon. He eventually shed tears while mentioning Jeong Soo-min’s tragic ending.

“Because I’ve only played good characters so far, I was able to end it with the ending ‘I lived happily ever after’ without any regrets. Even if I left my character behind, I didn’t have to worry. I only met characters that made me feel at ease. But Sumin is a little different. “I feel so bad that I left her there.”

While the original character was a flat ‘villain’, Jeong Soo-min, played by Song Ha-yoon, showed surprisingly rich emotions. He mentioned his efforts to learn Jeong Soo-min’s emotions, saying, “I tried to make it look three-dimensional.”

“I tried to keep the tone and personality simple, but make the emotions feel as three-dimensional as possible. I met with psychiatrists and profilers to talk about the character, and had deep conversations about how these emotional and mental states came about. i did it.”

Jeong Soo-min’s emotional changes are clearly visible visually. Unlike the early days of the drama, which emphasized a bright and lovely image, a darker and more mature image was revealed towards the end.

“In the beginning, the costumes and makeup were ‘age-appropriate’. I wanted to give an immature feel. I also acted with a cheerful voice. And from the scene where she confesses to being falsely pregnant in the company lobby, I considered it the second chapter and brought out the dark side. . From then on, my costumes became darker and more intense emotions were revealed. At the end of the drama, I wore almost no makeup.”

He said that working with actors his age was very satisfying. He expressed his affection, saying, “They all got along so well that I couldn’t pick just one person.”

“I could feel that everyone was trying to live the life of the character. All of the actors did an excellent job and their personalities matched well. They were all very hard-working friends, so it was impossible not to get along with them. They also have a lot of sense.”

Song Ha-yoon created a character in a different way than before through ‘Marry My Husband’. She also experienced a big change in her acting style. “Do you think there will be any changes for actress Song Ha-yoon in the future?” she asked.

“I think there will be a complete change. After living as Sumin, I became fearless, right? And it also became simpler. In the past, I acted with ‘thoughts’ and ‘pressure,’ but through Sumin, I felt that I had become simpler. “I’m also curious about how these changes will affect future works.”

He said that he will be able to act in a healthier way in future works. She added that because it was her first time, she felt and accepted the pain with her whole body, and that little by little she was finding ways.

“It was my first time, so I didn’t know how to do it. I asked around, but I couldn’t figure it out. So I tried to experience it for myself. I don’t think it was a healthy way for the human Song Ha-yoon. But next time, I will be able to meet the character in a slightly healthier way. same.”

At the end of the interview, he smiled and said that he has expectations for actor Song Ha-yoon, who has grown one step further.

“What more emotions do I have left? What more emotions can I show you? I have huge expectations for the next work. I’m really excited. I think I can show you other emotions!”
