Park Ji-hyun Delivers Haunting Performance as Cheon Sang-yeon in 'Eunjoo and Sangyeon'

Since its release on the 12th, Park Ji-hyun, who plays the lead role of Cheon Sang-yeon, has left a profound and lasting impression with a performance that is one with the character. The series chronicles the intertwined lives of two friends, Eunjoo (Kim Go-eun) and Sang-yeon, delving into their complex relationship over time.
Park Ji-hyun skillfully portrays Sang-yeon, a character who grew up with privilege but harbored envy for Eunjoo's seemingly perfect life.

Through vacant, melancholic eyes and a poignant expression, Park Ji-hyun conveyed Sang-yeon's emotional turmoil, resonating deeply with viewers. A particularly moving scene depicted Sang-yeon's collapse upon discovering the truth about her brother, Cheon Sang-hak (Kim Jae-won), leading to uncontrollable tears that evoked immense sympathy. The final moments shared by Sang-yeon and Eunjoo in Switzerland also proved to be a tear-jerking highlight.
Park Ji-hyun's masterful embodiment of Sang-yeon, a character who is both difficult to hate and easy to empathize with, drew viewers into her life's journey across the series' 15 episodes. Having once again proven her versatile acting range with this impactful work, Park Ji-hyun is set to appear in the films 'Wild Thing' and 'Ja-pil', as well as the drama 'Tomorrow, Too!'
Netflix's 'Eunjoo and Sangyeon', starring Park Ji-hyun, is exclusively available on Netflix.
