Actor Song Ji In immediately captured viewers' attention with a shocking visual and an elevated display of maternal love in 'Doctor Shin.'
Actor Song Ji In appeared in episode 1 of TV CHOSUN's weekend miniseries 'Doctor Shin' (written by Phoebe (Im Seong-han), directed by Lee Seung-hoon), which premiered on the 14th, as Hyun Ran-hee, gallery owner and mother of Momo (Baek Seora), vividly portraying desperate maternal love and complex desire toward her daughter while revealing a powerful presence.
'Doctor Shin' is a medical thriller that depicts the story of a genius doctor who challenges the realm of the divine and a woman whose brain is suddenly damaged and who gradually loses her soul. In the drama, Song Ji In made a striking first impression as Hyun Ran-hee when she first appeared at the airport with a full hippie perm and sophisticated styling.
That day Hyun Ran-hee raised the drama's tension by showing extreme maternal love, willing to give up her own life for her daughter Momo, who fell into a coma after a scuba diving accident. She delivered a shocking development by making an extraordinary proposal to Shin Ju-shin (played by Jeong I-chan), a genius brain surgeon and Momo's boyfriend, asking that the 'brain change' surgery candidate be herself. The choice to volunteer to undergo surgery as a mother who could not bear to watch her daughter's suffering was a scene that revealed the desperation of maternal feeling.
Song Ji In increased immersion by intensely depicting the character's psychology, wavering between desire and reason, with a fleeting glance toward Shin Ju-shin and a subtle atmosphere.
In this way, Song Ji In left a strong impression by three-dimensionally expressing maternal love willing to give up her life for her beloved daughter and the instinctual desires that lie beneath it. In particular, within the shocking premise of a 'brain change,' viewers' curiosity is growing about what choices and changes Hyun Ran-hee will face going forward.
