Actress Han Ji-hyun reaffirmed her solid acting chops.
Han Ji-hyun played the lead role Han Young-seo in the 2025 KBS2 single-episode project Love: Track episode
In the broadcast, Young-seo is shown studying fiercely to achieve the goal of "entering a prestigious university law school" set by her mother rather than herself, and she cannot hold back tears from the pressure and loneliness that have built up over a long time. Han Ji-hyun vividly conveyed Young-seo's tired heart — who has lived without dreams and chosen to be a "deserted island" — through quietly released tears.
Han Ji-hyun convincingly portrayed the process in which Young-seo, while talking with Hyun-ha about music tastes and dreams, comes to know the feelings of first love and simultaneously dreams of becoming a lyricist, raising the drama's immersion to the fullest. Han Ji-hyun's attention to acting detail is also notable in how she captured the character's changes without missing them — the always cold and sensitive Young-seo facing feelings of dream and love, growing into an adult lyricist, and regaining a warm smile and vitality.
Han Ji-hyun's clear, innocent visuals and aura amplified the drama's purity and freshness, and her solid acting skills prompted viewers to recall memories of first love while also remembering the awkward but sincere moments when they painted their dreams. At the end of the drama, Han Ji-hyun's narration, "Where I am now is because there was someone who believed in me more than I did. That person was you," and the single word "thank you" she offered Hyun-ha delivered a heavy resonance to viewers.
Han Ji-hyun said, "It was a time when I could put on a school uniform again after a long time and bring back the soft, fuzzy feelings of my school days. I hope this work remains a warm time during which viewers can quietly recall those days that remained in a corner of their hearts."
In addition, she is set to captivate viewers with an irreplaceable charm by playing fashion designer Song Ha-young in MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama season of your brilliant days , which will air in 2026.<
