Rookie actress Choi Yoon-ji showcased her charms with contrasting soft and tough appearances from her first appearance in the drama "First, For Love."
Choi Yoon-ji revealed her overwhelming presence in the tvN Monday-Tuesday drama "First, For Love" (directed by Yoo Je-won, written by Seong Woo-jin, produced by Studio Dragon and Showrunners), which premiered on 4th, portraying the role of Lee Hyori, a wandering medical student who is endlessly cold towards her mother (played by Yum Jung-ah).
"First, For Love" is a story that depicts a single mother and her medical student daughter, who unexpectedly faces a second act in life, choosing to live for today's happiness rather than tomorrow, encountering a story of first love that is not an end.
In this broadcast, Hyori showed her tsundere side, being cold and blunt only to her mother, but taking the initiative to be the designated driver at a gathering and bringing hangover remedies. Despite the sarcastic remarks from the university hospital professor, Hyori expressed her thoughts without backing down and dramatically declared her resignation, showcasing her fiery MZ moment by throwing off her doctor's gown.
After declaring her intention to run away, Hyori fled with a friend to Cheongha, capturing the joyful emotions of youth in her 20s with a smile as if nothing happened. However, after being discovered by her mother, she triggered tense moments with hurtful words and confessed the fact that she has a brain tumor, leaving a sense of heaviness with her resigned attitude.
Choi Yoon-ji exuded a charm of sharp contrasts, being bright and lively with friends but endlessly cold and aloof with family. She conveyed realistic moments of softness and toughness without reserve. Especially in the delicate emotional line drawn during the process of confessing the painful truth to her family after realizing her illness and shedding tears of acknowledgment, she drew the emotional involvement of viewers perfectly.
Choi Yoon-ji, who debuted last year in the drama "Love is on a One-Log Bridge," has actively participated in various works, including the Netflix series "Trunk" and tvN's "Resident Playbook." Her performance as the lead in this "First, For Love" is drawing attention.
