Yoon Ji-min Shows Unexpected Warm Side Off-Camera, Praised for Careful Treatment of Child Actor
Actress Yoon Ji-min, who left a strong impression as the ruthless villain 'Ha-jung' in the MBN one-act play 'The Floor Between', is captivating audiences with her affectionate off-screen persona.
'The Floor Between' is a psychological thriller that explores the issue of child abuse, occurring in our closest daily lives, through the medium of 'sound'.
In the drama, Yoon Ji-min portrayed 'Ha-jung', who relentlessly abuses 'Ji-eun' (Ko Ju-ni), the adopted daughter she shares with her husband 'Joo-ho' (Ahn Chang-hwan). She delivered a powerful performance, oscillating between coldness and madness. Her chilling gaze and unrestrained explosive energy were particularly memorable in her confrontations with 'Won-kyung' (Baek Si-yeon), the downstairs neighbor sensitive to noise.
However, behind the camera, Yoon Ji-min displayed a completely different charm. The released behind-the-scenes photos show her smiling brightly in front of a fan while waiting for her scene and chatting warmly with actress Ok Ju-ri, who plays a welfare worker. Most notably, her meticulous consideration for the child actor, Ko Ju-ni, brought warmth to the set. It is reported that she took great care to ensure the child actor was not unnecessarily exposed to disturbing stimuli during violent scenes by separating the filming area or preventing the child from watching directly, prioritizing both safety and emotional well-being.
In photos with Ko Ju-ni, this warmth is palpable. Although they were adversaries in the drama, off-screen, she acted like a caring older sister, cracking jokes to ease the child's tension. The contrast between her icy villain role and her genuinely warm personality has heightened anticipation for Yoon Ji-min's future projects.
Netizens have reacted positively to Yoon Ji-min's contrasting off-screen warmth, commenting, 'She's like an angel,' 'Her acting is great, and her personality is perfect too,' and 'I hope she gets many more good roles like this in the future.'
