Actress JO YOUNG-HEE has transformed into an ambitious mother.
JO YOUNG-HEE appeared as 'KIM SO-HYUN', the mother of her daughter WOOJIN (played by PARK JEONG-YEON), in episodes 5 and 6 of 'TRY: We Become a Miracle' that aired on the 8th and 9th.
SO-HYUN learned that the captain position in the Hanyang High School shooting team was changing from WOOJIN to NASEOL-HYUN (played by SUNG JI-YOUNG). After calling her daughter WOOJIN, she firmly said to her, "Being a captain doesn't help at all," as WOOJIN had given up the captain role because it interfered with her training.
She further pressed WOOJIN, asking, "Why make mom worry? Isn't it difficult to send the training records right away?" JO YOUNG-HEE captivated the atmosphere with her sharp voice, raising the tension in the drama.
SO-HYUN, who made a full appearance in episode 6, exuded charisma with her fearless attitude. Visiting the school to check on WOOJIN's training status, she remarked, "Why are you still running out of strength in the second half? Isn't there a problem with your strength training?" while glaring at the coach BAE I-JI (played by LIM SE-MI), who was in charge of WOOJIN.
When the shooting department manager JEON NAK-GYUN (played by LEE SEONG-WOOK) mentioned that WOOJIN was not far behind other players in score, she responded, "It doesn't take a big score to determine whether you become a gold medalist or a loser," creating a chilly atmosphere. JO YOUNG-HEE's cold gaze and firm voice quickly engulfed the drama.
Mother 'SO-HYUN' was the epitome of a strict 'Tiger Mom' toward WOOJIN. She stood her daughter up in a position of focus and said, "There was a day when we skipped weighing in? Shooting has no weight class, but you know there is a proper weight, right?" Ignoring the attention of other students, her focus solely on her daughter's records revealed a misguided ambition of a mother, showing that 'my dream' is 'your dream.'
SO-HYUN's suffocating obsession, transformed from affection, did not cease. She pressed WOOJIN, saying, "Explain about the first round of the representative selection match," and added, "Did you think about something else? You're the one who pulled the trigger, so if you don't know the reason, who would? Every shot must have a reason behind it." The line from SO-HYUN, "You know what mom's dream is, right? Don't disappoint me," hit hard through JO YOUNG-HEE's realistic performance.
In this way, JO YOUNG-HEE perfectly expressed the heavy expectations and obsession she has for her daughter, drawing the sympathy of viewers. Her performance heightened the dramatic elements and left a strong impression in 'TRY: We Become a Miracle.'
SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'TRY: We Become a Miracle,' featuring the striking presence of JO YOUNG-HEE, airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
