"I have never thought I was good at acting. I know I got here through luck. I know I'm not everything but won't I improve if I try my best?

Yoon Eun-hye was careful yet feisty at an interview in a café in Seoul, with the movie "My Black Mini Dress" coming soon on the 24th.

She seemed as though if there were no problems with it being published, she would talk honestly about everything for hours. This was evidence that she had been heart-aching because of the tag that followed her around saying she was a singer turned actress. She said she was hurt most my bad comments and articles as bad as they are.

"It is suffocating that a single wrong picture on Twitter or my mini homepage can cause such criticism. The pain internet bullying causes doesn't become insensitive just because I've been in this industry for a long time. It gets even worse".

Yoon Eun-hye, who has been in the entertainment biz for 12 years said, "I have never struggled to live". She continued that she was ashamed she didn't go through the long and hard training other idol singers do and she made her singer debut when she was still lacking talent.




"I'm not Ashamed because I was a singer; I'm shamed because I was insufficient as a person. I was ugly, couldn't sing well and couldn't dance well but I went up on stage. I am really embarrassed sometimes at the videos of my past. The worst thing is a singer who can't sing".

Yoon Eun-hye made her actress debut with the 2006 movie "The Legend of Seven Cutter" and drama "Princess Hours". She had endless issues of 'a singer turned actress' following her. Her pronunciation was another issue. She was acknowledged as an actress worthy of the lead role in drama "Coffee Prince" but the issue of her acting continued to bother her.

"I went through a hard time with the whole pronunciation issue. I cried a lot. I think I was under so much stress that I had a disability. I couldn't finish a sentence even when I was talking to close friends. I wondered, 'Can I continue acting like this?'"

She constantly improves her pronunciation biting on a pen or even a piece of cork. She thinks nothing is impossible if she doesn't try as much as she wants to act. Her will power to step forward to improve her demerits looked strong.



Compared to her greed for acting she doesn't have that many done. This is the first time in 5 years after "The Legend of the Seven Cutter". She said it was a difficult challenge because she didn't want to withhold the criticism that might come according to the movies success.

"You have no idea how much I wanted to do a movie. I was scared. If this movie fails to succeed, should I only do dramas? I wanted to be a flower that rose from unconcern. My will to do better was running ahead but because I couldn't act very well I couldn't challenge myself to do movies".

The movie "My Black Mini Dress" is about the friendship and things that happen to four girls in their mid 20s who just graduated college. Yoon Eun-hye is Yoo-min along with Park Han-byeol, Cha Ae-ryeon and Yoo In-na. She hopes the audience will empty their hearts and only look at Yoo-min.

"I've had a connection with director Heo In-moo from a couple years ago. He asked to do a project together after "Herb" but it went dead. He showed the scenario for this movie to me first. I wanted to do it because the scenario was fun. Regardless of the success or failure of the movie, I hope the audience will see a normal Yoo-min through Yoon Eun-hye, and that would be the best compliment".

Ever since I saw her in Goong and Legend of Seven Cutter I've been her fan. She's not the perfect actress but she makes up for it by being so relate-able and by being so earnest. I can't wait to go see her movie in theaters too.

It's sad to hear about how the pain from the internet bullying gets worse with time for her, it's not easy for everyone to grow a thicker skin. The fact that she didn't want to withhold the criticism regarding the movie makes it seem it even affected her openness to constructive criticism. Sucks how anonymity turns people into insensitive jackasses and end up affecting someone that much.

She didn't only get bullied on the internet, she once also was rushed to the emergency room cause an anti pretended to be a fan of hers then shot her in the eye with a weird solution. She had to take a break cause her cornea was damaged. What this girl had to go through is no jokel.
Yes she is the highest paid actress now, but if people think that her journey was a walk in the park, then they are really mistaken.

Whoa, I didn't know she had to face this kind of extremity irl too. Ugh, what's wrong with people... Poor girl, I hope she can always find the support she may need.

yeah that's why for a long time she was scared to go on fan events, she always had lots of bodyguards around her and issue a strict warning not to come too close to her.

No one cares about her obvious flaws and imperfectiosn because her amazing personality makes up for it.
To me, in my eyes, she's one of the most decent girls in the korean entertainment industry.
she just always seems so grounded and able to connect to the public's hearts.

She's got that great likability factor about her.
who cares if she can't act (tho IMO she can) and you can't understand a word (60%) of her dialogue.

She's still my ultimate lesbian girl crush.

i love how down-to-earth and honest she is.

how can anyone not recognize her talents after so many years?

i mean, its hard when you just started off from being a singer to an actress, but i loved her character in goong (god knows how many times i've watched and rewatched that drama) and i think she did a pretty good job there.

I love her. She's beautiful and an amazing actress. Just too hard on herself. It's probably one of those cases where 500 people say she's awesome but few mean-spirited jerkbags say she's awful and she believes them.

I adore her! One of my fave dramas is Coffee Prince so she's doing something right with her acting. However I couldnt continue watching 'My fair lady' cos I couldnt stand Yoon Sang Hyun's character/ acting! Sometimes a drama is just crappy cos of the plot/script, no amazing actor can save it.

OMFG I FUCKING LOVE EYH <3333

My ultimate favorite drama has always been Coffee Prince, and I just love her acting in it. I don't know where she got this idea about her being a bad actress. There is still room to improve, sure, but she is definitely nowhere near bad to begin with.
Not to mention all of her modeling work is fucking amazing gorgeous... T__________T

I don't know why they criticized her on Coffee Prince, I actually believed her part as a tomboy, and made me cry, not many actors can do that, sure maybe she's got to improve, but who are we to judge when we haven't had to learn 1254616 lines, be in front of a camera and sleep 4 hours a day =/

I love her. YEH isn't the greatest actress but I always connect with all her characters. I cry whenever she cries onscreen. She's come a long way since her goong days.

She's one of those people who always try their hardest and make you feel ashamed when you effortlessly gain something she worked her ass off for.
I really love her in Coffee Prince, I never had the impression she was a bad actress, I really admired her acting.

I think her acting is totally fine (of course I don't talk any Korean, so her possible weird pronunciation doesn't bother me), loved her in Goong, The Vineyard Man, and Coffee Prince (haven't seen My Fair Lady though).

I've never seen any character this awesome girl played that I didn't love, to me that makes her a good actress. People may talk about enunciation and fine-tuned skills but her ability to reach out to the hearts of the audience is definitely a great asset. I've loved her right from the start, especially when I got to see some of her fabulous personality in X-man, I wish she was still doing shows like that!
