Han Hye Jin Talks About Relating Deeply To Her Character’s Pain In “Divorce Attorney Shin”

Feb 19, 2023

Han Hye Jin has revealed why she decided to star in the upcoming JTBC drama “Divorce Attorney Shin”!

Based on a popular webtoon, “Divorce Attorney Shin” will tell the story of a talented divorce lawyer punnily named Shin Sung Han (the word “shinsunghan” means “sacred” in Korean). Cho Seung Woo will star as the titular Shin Sung Han, a former classical pianist who suddenly switches career paths late in life after a shocking turn of events.

Han Hye Jin will star in the drama as Lee Seo Jin, a radio DJ and former weather forecaster who is stuck in a horrible marriage.

Describing her character as “a beautiful bird trapped in a birdcage,” Han Hye Jin remarked, “I thought that seeing the character push forward and keep going in spite of [her situation] might give someone out there with [similar] wounds the hope to keep on living.”

She went on to add, “I found it admirable and comforting how she found strength, courage, and motherly love through good people.”

Han Hye Jin also shared that as a mother herself, she was able to personally relate to her character and her pain.

“Although moms are strong, they become weak when it comes to their children,” she explained. “Anyone with kids will probably be able to relate, but I was able to relate to every moment I acted with my on-screen son in the drama.”

“The script was so entertaining and immersive that I became totally focused and read it all in one go,” she recalled. “I deeply understood the character, and I felt an urge to muster up the courage to take on the challenge [of playing her].”

The actress added that she had also been excited about the prospect of working together with her co-stars, noting, “Cho Seung Woo, Kim Sung Kyun, Jung Moon Sung, and Kang Mal Geum had already decided to appear in the drama, and knowing that I would be able to work together with these four actors, there was no reason for me to hesitate.”
