Former Girl's Day member Hye-ri has been nominated for the Best New Female Actress award at the Bu-il Film Awards for her film "Victory."
On the 22nd, Hye-ri's official social media account stated, "Hye-ri has been nominated for the Best New Female Actress award at the 34th Bu-il Film Awards for the film 'Victory.'"
The film "Victory," in which Hye-ri grants, portrays a beginner cheerleading club called "Millennium Girls," which is filled only with passion, as they cheer everyone with exciting dances and songs. Set against the backdrop of 1999, "Victory" evokes nostalgia for viewers who experienced that time and freshness for those who did not. It is not difficult to find reviews that liken it to "Sunny," and many have mentioned it as their "life movie" in post-viewing reviews.
In particular, Hye-ri received attention for her active promotion after the release of the film "Victory." In response, a radio broadcast remarked, "Did you invest in it directly?" and "Looks like you invested a lot." Hye-ri said, "It's the first time I've cried watching a work I've done. So, it's really upsetting that people might pass by without knowing I made such a film. I feel a kind of responsibility I've never felt before. Because people will choose based on me, right? But I'm a bit worried that people might have a lot of doubts, so I say things like, 'Please trust me,' or 'Just give it a chance.'"
The film "Victory," which was released on Aug. 14 last year, attracted a total of 500,000 viewers. Although the score is somewhat disappointing, Hye-ri was overjoyed to be nominated for the Best New Female Actress award at the Bu-il Film Awards.
Meanwhile, Hye-ri is reportedly dating dancer Woo-tae for a year after they connected through the film "Victory." Hye-ri starred as the main character in "Victory," while Woo-tae was responsible for the choreography of the piece, leading to their connection. Hye-ri and Woo-tae, who began their relationship through "Victory," are said to be dating cautiously for over a year.
However, regarding this, Hye-ri's side stated, "We cannot confirm anything regarding the dating rumors as it concerns the actress's private life," and a representative from the production of "Victory" stated, "Woo-tae is indeed the hip-hop dancer who guided the choreography in the film. However, this is the first I've heard of any dating rumors with Hye-ri."
