'COLONY' actress Jeon Ji-hyun spoke about her action performance in the film.

'COLONY' (directed by Yeon Sang-ho) held a press screening at Seoul Yongsan-gu CGV Yongsan i-Park Mall on the 20th. Director Yeon Sang-ho, Jeon Ji-hyun, Koo Kyo-hwan, Ji Chang-wook, Shin Hye-bin, and Kim Shin-rok attended the event and shared various stories.

'COLONY' is a film about isolated survivors trapped inside a building sealed off by an unidentified infectious outbreak, fighting against infected individuals who evolve in unpredictable ways.

'COLONY' marks Jeon Ji-hyun's return to the screen after 11 years, in which she portrays Kwon Se-jeong, the leader of the survivors. She stated, "Since my character is a biomedical doctor, I probably wondered, 'Can I really do action well?' I think I acted with considerable restraint during filming. Kwon Se-jeong is a character who avoids crises in any situation, so I performed while maintaining an appropriate level."

'COLONY' actress Jeon Ji-hyun, who previously appeared in another zombie film, 'KINGDOM: Ashin of the North', explained, "What I liked about the 'COLONY' script was the intriguing connectivity within it. Previous infected individuals displayed individual, uncontrollable behavior, whereas the infected in 'COLONY' evolve in real time and move like a mass; that is the difference."

'COLONY' director Yeon Sang-ho also commented on Jeon Ji-hyun's close-up shots. He smiled and said, "It's natural. The biggest concern during this production was that the rules change, and the audience must follow them throughout the film. If the audience misses the rules, they cannot enjoy the movie. The face that discovers and realizes the rules is mostly Kwon Se-jeong. Like periods or commas in a sentence, she had to appear repeatedly throughout the film."
