SEOUL February 15 (Yonhap) -- Hit and runner juvenile kid, teenager who suffers from vitiligo and school bullying, and random woman who showed up at a guy’s house because of a pregnant girl.

South Korean actress Jung Soo-bin acted out various characters with emotional suffrage through Netflix series “Juvenile Justice,” Disney Plus’ “Revenge of Others,” and South Korean drama series “Trolley.” Such pain eventually leads to social misbehavior and could be subjected to strong criticism.

Jung Soo-bin who participated in an interview on February 7, as the South Korean drama “Trolley” is coming to an end addressed that she was able to learn a lot from acting out such characters and become more mature throughout her career.

Kim Soo-bin, acted by Jung Soo-bin is a female protagonist figure in their 20s who hangs around with those who provide bad influences to the character. Her parents went through devorce at a young age, and the step mother intentionally ignores the existence of Kim Soo-bin. Moreover, the character is pregnant and her closest friend turns up dead.

Although there is a character Kim Hye-joo acted by Kim Hyun-joo who covers for her and tries to understand her, Soo-bin has hard time taking in the concept. Instead Kim Soo-bin spits out harsh words to Hyun-joo and acts very callous.

Actress stated “It felt like Soo-bin was like a little kitten in a pouring rain,” adding “Although she might be very defensive at first, but when the weather gets better she will learn how to take in the kind help provided by those around her.”

Moreover, Kim Soo-bin addressed “I really wanted to show love to Soo-bin, and on top of that, I wanted to showcase that Soo-bin is a nice kid with kind and warm heart.”

“Trolley” is a very twisted drama series with very complicated character relationship therefore it is very hard for one to fully understand the truth within the incidents. Every character has their own secrets and they have reasons for lying to one another. Protagonist Kim Soo-bin acted by Jung Soo-bin is also a mysterious character.

Protagonist Kim Soo-bin shows up at Nam Joong-do, a promising member of the national assembly acted by Park Hee-soon, and his wife, Kim Hye-joo, acted by Kim Hyun-joo and surprises them by stating that she is pregnant with the baby of their recently passed son Nam Ji-hoon.

“In order to fully understand the figure Kim Soo-bin one needs to take a closer look into who is lying and who isn’t, Sometimes you have to act like you don’t know anything despite the fact that you know the truth. Instead of thinking too much about things, I decided to fully concentrate on every scenes and those various moments.” addressed Jung Soo-bin throughout her interview.

Within the first couple episodes of the drama Kim Soo-bin is portrayed as someone who is about to commit a major crime, however as the time progresses she is portrayed as someone who is in need of someone to lean on to.

When protagonist found out about the pregnancy, Kim Soo-bin visit’s her mother, however she was cornered with hatred whereas Kim Hye-joo worries about Kim Soo-bin and from the kind heartedness protagonist felt thankfulness however she was worried whether Kim Hye-joo is being real or not.

Actress Jung Soo-bin was sad to see protagonist Kim Soo-bin suffer.

“All Soo-bin wanted from her biological mother was a small little attention, however nobody was there to support her,” adding “As Soo-bin received love and interest from Hye-joo, I think she matured. Later on in the drama Soo-bin’s decision lies on the outcome which Hye-joo will be satisfied with.” actress Jung Soo-bin addressed throughout her interview.

Surprisingly Jung Soo-bin was extremely worried because she joined the production with one to two weeks left until the first shooting.

“Since the drama does not take place periodically, I have studies the scenario as if I was learning about the history, I laid it down flat and learned it from the earliest to the latest,” adding “Since the drama deals with such heavy subjects, such as teenage pregnancy and more, I really hope nobody would be offended by the drama while watching it.” addressed actress Jung Soo-bin.

Although actress Jung Soo-bin became very mature through participating in productions and acting out various characters with emotional struggle, Jung Soo-bin addressed her ambition to work on a movie which is totally different in genre.

“When I was in my high school senior year, I wanted to become an actress, since I started the preparation later than most of the kids, I know I lack in certain parts, however I am very confident in my ability to push through despite of the hardships. With positive mind I would like to continue acting.” addressed Jung Soo-bin throughout the interview.
