Actress Jeon Ji-hyun shared her impressions of working with actor Koo Kyo-hun in 'COLONY'.

On the 26th, we met actress Jeon Ji-hyun of the film 'COLONY' (directed by Yeon Sang-ho) at a café on Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, and had a wide-ranging conversation.

'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. The mere fact that this is a new work chosen by actress Jeon Ji-hyun, who is making her comeback to the screen after 11 years, has already made it one of the most anticipated productions both domestically and internationally.

Jeon Ji-hyun portrayed Kwon Se-jeong, the leader of the survivors. Regarding her first collaboration with Koo Kyo-hun in 'COLONY', she said, "He has such great chemistry. As people died one by one on set, we were the last two to survive, so we spent a lot of time together."

She continued, "If our personalities hadn't matched, we probably wouldn't have become this close. In a way, he felt like a younger sister. While a younger brother might give a vibe like, 'You know what I mean? Just follow me,' with Koo Kyo-hun, we had conversations like, 'What are we going to do? I'm going to do it this way,' and the synergy was remarkable. It's fun being together, and we communicate well."

Regarding Ji Chang-wook, she added, "We've become even closer while filming 'Human X Kumiho' these days, rather than during the 'COLONY' shoot. During the filming of 'COLONY', actor Ji Chang-wook was extremely busy."

Furthermore, Jeon Ji-hyun, who has been meeting fans through stage greetings since the release of 'COLONY', said, "Actually, I was surprised by the new culture. In the past, we would just greet people in front of the screen and leave, but these days it's conducted like a fan meeting. Once you're seated in the audience, you can see each audience member clearly. The sketchbooks are even more visible. They ask me to do things for them, and there's no reason not to. I'm trying my best to do everything for them."
