“Typhoon Sangsa” actor Kim Min-ha: “Being told to ‘lose weight and get rid of freckles’… Harsh words became a great motivator”

Actor Kim Min-ha reflected on the difficult times in her twenties. In an interview conducted on November 26th ahead of the conclusion of the tvN weekend drama ‘Typhoon Company,’ in which she appeared, Kim Min-ha talked about her early days in acting. She said, “When I started acting in my twenties, there were naturally many times when things didn’t go as planned. I heard harsh words like, ‘You should really give up,’ ‘Lose weight,’ ‘Get rid of freckles,’ ‘Get plastic surgery,’ ‘That’s why you won’t make it.’ Looking back now, I heard a lot of such harsh comments.” She continued, “I got hurt a lot because of those words, but they also became a big motivator for me. I think if it weren’t for those words, I wouldn’t have been able to refine my mindset.”
