Yoon Yeo-jung used to describe herself as an’old actor’ and’a livelihood actor’.

It is not wrong to say’old actor’ since he debuted as a public talent for the 3rd TBC in 1966 and has been active for 55 years.

1971 was at its peak.

Yoon Yeo-jung, who enjoyed popularity and spotlight in the drama’Jang Hee-bin’ as well as the movie’Hwa-yeo,’ which gave him the best actress and newcomer awards, has a hiatus while choosing to marry singer Cho Young-nam and go to the United States in 1975.

In’Buttercup’, he confessed that he considered his great-grandmother’smells like’ as his grandson David (Alan Kim) did.

Although Sunja came from Jung’s grandmother, the director said that he did not need to imitate his grandmother, and Yoon Yeo-jung also said he liked that point.

Yun Yeo-jeong, who has been well received for his extraordinary performance of Sun-ja, who adds vitality to the movie and makes dramatic changes, has received 32 award trophies so far.
