'Hate to Love' character opens up about love for the first time

The actress suddenly broke up with her younger boyfriend even though she had previously intended to quit acting to do business and get married.

- Returning to the film industry after nearly 2 years, did you have difficulty playing the role of Bach Kim in 'Hate then love'?

- Not working for a long time has made my acting somewhat dull. However, I only found it difficult in the first few scenes and then I was able to get back into the rhythm normally. I really had difficulty in the crying scenes because in real life, I usually don't cry when I'm sad or depressed. Crying in front of others is almost impossible for me. Every time I filmed those scenes, I felt a lot of pressure. I had to put aside my own habits and emotions and put myself into the character to perform as well as possible. I'm satisfied with what I did in Hate Then Love.

- What is the reason you have been absent from the screen for nearly 2 years?

- About 2 years ago, I started dating a boyfriend who was one year younger. During that time, I hardly acted in any films, only playing a small role in Moscow in the season of changing leaves. I once intended to quit acting to start a business and get married. That was also the reason why I hardly appeared on screen for the past 2 years. However, we broke up about half a year ago. After that, I returned to acting by participating in Hate then Love.

- Having put your career on hold to plan for a more distant future with your boyfriend, why did you still decide to break up?

- Before, I was a person who loved freedom, loved to fly and always did what I wanted. When I met someone I truly loved, I changed myself and had different thoughts. However, after a period of being in love, we had different views about the future. When we felt that we did not have a common direction, we decided to break up, not because we ran out of feelings, argued or had deception in love.

My ex-boyfriend was younger than me but very mature. He was the first and only person who made me think about going further. He thought a lot about our future as well as mine. Meanwhile, although I was 27 years old, I was quite artistic, always thinking that I was only 21 - 22. I realized that I was not what he wanted. The difference in views about the future made me gradually feel that we were no longer on the same path. Although I had determined my thoughts and thought about getting married, I was still not really ready to become a woman of the family. We agreed to give each other some time to think calmly. However, that time of silence was the reason that unintentionally killed everything.

- How do you get over the time after a breakup?

- My way of overcoming this is to give myself some private space to calm down. After that, I often meet friends, hang out with them, go out to eat and talk about other stories in life. I always find ways to keep myself busy to quickly overcome everything. I have never had the concept of jumping into a new relationship to forget the old one. Currently, I am still single and want to spend more time for myself. It would be very difficult for someone to change my mind at this time.

- How is your relationship with your ex-boyfriend now?

- After breaking up, we occasionally ask about each other or meet up and go out to eat together. If we call us just friends, it's not really true because we still think about each other a lot. I think that being friends after breaking up is only difficult when one or both of us have a new partner. I think that everything is still the same, it's just that we are no longer lovers and I can focus more on my work.

- Being friends after a breakup, what do you think if 'old love comes back without being invited'?

- I don't think too much about this, but if 'old love comes back without being invited', then there's nothing to be afraid of. Actually, she's my type and I'm her type too. I've always loved and respected her so I'll treat her and do the best for her. I'm a person who believes in fate. What will come will come, I don't want to think too much.

- How did your family react when your daughter broke up with her boyfriend at the age of 27 even though she was planning to get married?

- Although we had the intention of getting married, neither of us had told our families and our families had never met to have a serious talk. I don't know if my parents were impatient or not because they never showed it in front of their daughter. My mother always respected all my relationships and knew that there was a reason for me to continue or stop with someone. My mother believed that everything was slow and steady and that love was all about fate. She never urged me to quickly choose or date someone to get married. I feel lucky for that.
