- KIM Hye-jun, born in 1995, first appeared in commercials in 2014 and was still studying theater and film at Hanyang University when she debuted in the lesbian romance web series <Lily Fever> (2015). Determined to go to as many auditions as possible in order to gain experience, one day she unexpectedly passed one for <Saturday Night Live Korea>, although she had always considered herself to have no talent for comedy, and so joined the regular cast of the TV show in 2016. Having made her name participating in several popular skits, she left the show at the end of the season in June. After starring in several short movies such as <A Transfer Student> (2016) and appearing as support in a few TV series, she landed her first role in a feature film in <After Spring> (2017). In 2018, KIM was cast as one of the main characters in Netflix Original series <Kingdom> (2018), portraying the unusual character of an ambitious teenage queen who is expecting the heir of the throne. In late 2018, she reunited with BAE Doona in the TV series <Matrimonial Chaos>, playing BAE’s younger sister. Although KIM’s acting in <Kingdom> was criticized by some viewers who would find it inconsistent with the much codified period piece genre, she was unanimously praised just a few months later for her performance as one of the leads in <Another Child>, the directorial debut of KIM Yun-seok. The actor-turned-director would say of her, “Since I don’t think she is the type of actress to be swayed by trends, I hold the belief that with time her sincerity will shine brighter”. close
