Actress Ryu Hye-young shared her candid thoughts on her relentless string of projects.

The press screening for the film "Killing Time" (directed by Jang Jun-yeop) was held at CGV Yongsan I-Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, on the 13th. Director Jang Jun-yeop and actors Ryu Hye-young and Nam Yun-su attended the event.

"Killing Time" is a time-attack thriller about an internet broadcasting crew called "Killing Time," who lost everything in a single accident, and their fight to survive against a mysterious presence that attacks them at an abandoned hospital they visit in hopes of making a comeback.

Ryu Hye-young leads the drama by delicately portraying the complex inner world of Yeon-woo, who dives into "Killing Time" to win back public affection despite being burdened with guilt and anxiety following the death of a team member.

Regarding why she chose the project, she stated, "What felt good when I read the script was that it could be read without stopping. There are not many scripts that can be read through without pausing, but this one flew by." She added, "There was no reason to turn down this character. No matter which actress had received the role, they would have been eager for it."

She continued, "The fact that I could express Yeon-woo's confused emotions while also performing action scenes was also appealing," revealing her affection for the character.

In particular, Ryu Hye-young has recently met audiences consecutively through various works, including the films "Intern" and "The Assassins," followed by "Killing Time." On this matter, she began by saying, "An opportunity has come where I can show you multiple works and diverse characters all at once."

She continued, "As an actor, it is a profession of being chosen, so I cannot decide when a work will be released. Last year, two dramas aired simultaneously, and at the time, I also felt some regret." She added, "If works were released slowly and steadily, people would think, 'This actress is still working,' but it was disappointing that they came out around the same time by coincidence. I have simply worked hard consistently."

She then added, "Now, I am accepting it as 'perhaps this too is destiny.' I am simply grateful for the fact that I can meet audiences through various works."

Ryu Hye-young expressed confidence that she would be able to show another side of herself through "Killing Time." She said, "I think I can show a new side of myself in 'Killing Time.' I am happy to be able to show you that side," and conveyed her hope that audiences would enjoy the film.
