Actress Kim Go-eun revealed that she takes time to reflect on herself with every project.

On the 8th, Kim Go-eun's "Actors House" was held at the Culture Hall of Shinsegae Department Store Centum City in Haeundae-gu, Busan, as part of the 31st Busan International Film Festival (BIFF). Kim looked back on her acting career alongside various characters and shared a special time with the audience.

On this day, Kim revealed that her attitude toward herself has changed. She said, "I have not been able to easily say that things are difficult since I was young. I would keep pushing myself by asking, 'What is so hard?' In a way, it seems I was foolish."

She continued, "Lately, I try to acknowledge my difficulties a little," adding, "It seems I have changed to a method of feeling the emotion of being overwhelmed, accepting it sufficiently, and then letting it out."

She also spoke candidly about how she views her own works. Kim said, "When a work is released, I usually watch it about twice," noting, "The first time, honestly, I only see myself. I think, 'Why did I do that?' and only the disappointing points catch my eye."

She continued, "After watching it once, I shake off some of the things related to myself. When I watch it a second time, it seems I finally check whether I can see the work itself," explaining, "I try to see how this work will be received by the audience and whether there are any parts that might feel boring."

Kim also said that she takes time for self-reflection every time a project ends. She stated, "After filming is finished, I reflect even more. I look back on what was lacking in me, whether my state at that time affected how I handled things, and whether I truly did my best for the character."

Nevertheless, she emphasized that she does not only push herself. Kim added, "Sometimes a work does not do well when it is released, but in those cases, I also rewatch the parts where I performed well," stating, "I try to have time to praise myself in that way."
