Park Ji-hyun, a participant on "Ex-Changing Love 4," revealed the story of how she had consulted a fortune teller after giving up her dream of becoming an actress in the past.
On the 7th, a video titled "Returning as an actress after a long time.. Acting Vlog | Preparing to meet the Songi" was released on the YouTube channel "I'm Ji-hyun."
In the released video, Park Ji-hyun shared her feelings about restarting acting after meeting a classmate from the Korea National University of Arts (K-Arts) and outlined her plans for future activities.
On that day, Park Ji-hyun recalled the past, saying, "When I first said I would quit acting at age 26, it was terrifying. It meant giving up something I had devoted a long time to."
She continued, "That was the first and last time in my life I went to a fortune teller in Nonhyeon-dong," adding, "I told them that I had been studying acting and doing related work until then, but now I wanted to quit and become an announcer."
Then, she said she heard an unexpected story from the shaman. Park Ji-hyun stated, "The shamaness said, 'You will come back anyway. You will return to the entertainment industry in three years.'"
She explained, "At the time, I had many doubts about whether I could succeed as an actress, so it was hard to believe. She said my fate would be resolved through work in the entertainment industry, but I was trying to do a completely different job."
She continued, "But suddenly, I came to a place like the entertainment industry through 'Ex-Changing Love,'" recalling what she had heard at the fortune teller's.
Park Ji-hyun also shared an anecdote about revisiting the place where she had consulted the fortune teller at the time. She said, "I remember the location, but when I went recently, it was gone," drawing attention.
Park Ji-hyun, who has resumed her activities as an actress, revealed the genres she wants to challenge in the future. She said, "With my current mindset, I want to do romance. If it is not a story related to love, I also want to try office dramas."
In response, the classmate who accompanied her encouraged her, saying, "I absolutely do not think it is too late. Because the life you have lived has become richer, I feel that better acting will come out. I hope you find a work you want to do."
Park Ji-hyun also revealed that she is currently preparing for a performance, attracting interest.
She said, "Actually, I am preparing one performance. It feels like I might be taking on too much work, but somehow a good opportunity came," introducing it as "a one-person play with an installation art artist."
She continued, "I really wanted to meet my fans, and a good opportunity arose at the end of the year. I thought it would be wonderful if we could meet through the performance."
Park Ji-hyun confessed, "It has been so long that I wonder, 'Can I do this?' It is not like I have done theater for money," while adding, "I think it will be fine if I do my best with all my heart."
She also shared news of her drama appearance, saying, "A drama in which I filmed a small role before appearing on 'Ex-Changing Love' is airing in November."
Finally, Park Ji-hyun expressed her feelings ahead of the new challenge, saying, "Rather than the desire to act well again, it is the mindset of 'let's do something that looks fun.'"
Meanwhile, Park Ji-hyun attracted attention for appearing on the TVING dating reality show "Ex-Changing Love 4" with her ex-boyfriend Jeon Jung-gyu. The two, who successfully reunited through the program, continued their public romance before announcing their breakup on the 7th of last month.
