Kim Hieora emotionally reveals how to understand her The Glory character
The popular k-drama The Glory not only put Song Hye Kyo in the spotlight, but also shed a light on other lesser-known actors who showed outstanding talents.
As a result, the media has become increasingly interested in these actors.
On March 14, actress Kim Hieora sat down for an interview with Wikitree news agency about “The Glory,” in which she plays Lee Sara, a drug addict involved in bullying Moon Dong Eun.
In the interview, the actress shared some insight into her feelings for her character and her character’s affinity for art.
“For Sa Ra, art is an escape. Sa Ra has been using drugs since she was a child, so she probably never thought she would have to change. In this case, her pictures were probably the only way for her to communicate.
When I see her, unlike Yeon Jin or Hye Jeong, who have a goal, she has no desire or direction, and in that sense she is very ambiguous and in a somewhat dream-like state. Because of this, I think that instead of trying to achieve anything, she would express an unconscious struggle within herself through her art. »
The actress revealed that she has a passion for art herself and that it has been therapeutic for her.
“I’m an amateur. I do it like I’m doodling. I’m a very bright and energetic person, but when I have a problem or I’m depressed I don’t want to pass it on to someone else. Ever since I was young, I’ve been drawing and writing whenever I feel these emotions.
People say that when they see my art they feel strong emotions. An art teacher once told me after looking at my art that he felt a strong emotion and it seemed like I was performing as an artist. The teacher didn’t know I was an actress. Although I wasn’t there, I found her comments interesting. »
Kim Hieora revealed that one of her friends even cried when she saw her art. According to the outlet, the actress shed tears herself while narrating that part.
“Like I said, I don’t really tell my friends when I’m having a hard time. A friend of mine who saw my art started crying and said, “Hieora, you’ve been through so much. I’m sure it was so hard for you. »
Kim Hieora then revealed that the friend who comforted her was none other than actress Jung Ga Hee, who played Park Yeon Jin’s (played by Lim Ji Yeon) enemy Hoobae Sumi in the kdrama.
Thanks to her friend, Kim Hieora realized the importance of art in her life.
“I accepted it then. When I saw someone comforting me after seeing my art by saying “Hieora, you’ve been through so much”, I started painting and understood that art could positively influence my life.
When my girlfriend hugged me, I thought, “Hey, that’s nothing like that,” but I cried with her. It was so funny we took a selfie while crying. »
An outstanding actress and also a painter who we will see in more kdramas in the future.
