Career edit
Jeon Hye-jin, a contestant in the 1997 Miss Korea pageant representing Gyeongnam,[1] embarked on her acting career with minor roles in the film A Killing Story, released in 1998. At that time, she was a student studying directing at Sangmyung University. Although Jeon enjoyed watching movies, she never seriously considered pursuing acting as a career. However, her path took a turn when she met director Yi Sang-woo, the artistic director of the theatre company Chaimu, through the aforementioned film. He introduced her to the world of theater.[2]
In 1998, Jeon wholeheartedly embraced the stage and began her theatrical journey with the theatre company Chaimu, using the stage name Jeon Yi-da. She went on to participate in numerous productions such as 'The Moral Thief,' 'The Sogue,' 'There,' 'Unification Express,' and 'Shape.' Her talent and presence earned her the nickname "Daehangno's Jun Ji-hyun."[2]
In 2002, Jeon made her small screen debut with a minor role in the drama Ruler of Your Own World. Two years later, she took on a significant role as Yoon Seo-gyeong, the sister of Cha Moo-hyeok (played by So Ji-sub), in the KBS2 Monday-Tuesday drama I'm Sorry, I Love You.[3]
In 2008, Jeon appeared as the female lead in the music video of 'Wonji' in the 5th album of Kim Kwang-jin's album, and captivated many with her innocent appearance.[1][2]
Jeon rose to prominence with role Consort Yeong in Lee Joon-ik's historical drama The Throne (2015), starring Song Kang-ho and Yoo Ah-in.[4] She won a Blue Dragon Film Award for Best Supporting Actress.
Jeon played Chun-bae, in crime-noir film The Beast, an informant who makes a risky proposal to detective Han-soo (Lee Sung-min).[5]
