Actress Jin Seo-yeon is delivering a profound lingering impression through the play 'His Mother'.

The play 'His Mother', currently running at the Myeong-dong Art Theater of the National Theater Company since the 16th of last month, is based on a play by British playwright Evan Placey, which draws from a true story. It explores the psychological collapse and societal scrutiny faced by a mother whose minor son has committed a crime.

Jin Seo-yeon takes on the role of Brenda, the mother of the perpetrator, persuasively portraying the human inner self that crumbles yet endures under extreme circumstances.

In the play, Brenda is a character who holds on to the end to protect her family even as her daily life collapses in an instant. Jin Seo-yeon densely completed the character's narrative by layering complex emotions such as despair, guilt, anger, and the instinct to protect.

In particular, she has received praise for skillfully depicting the duality of motherhood—facing the confusion and societal gaze from the painful position of being the mother of a perpetrator, while striving to embrace her two children to the end.

The play 'His Mother' will continue to be performed at the Myeong-dong Art Theater until the 17th.
