Moon So-ri's Mom, Actress Lee Hyang-ran, Shows It's Never Too Late to Start Acting

This week on Jjanhanhyeong, one of my favorite actresses, Moon So-ri, made a special appearance to talk about her latest projects. During the conversation, she shared an unexpected and heartwarming story about her mother that deeply resonated with me.

Moon So-ri is currently busy promoting her upcoming Netflix original When Life Gives You Tangerines, set to release on March 7. The drama reflects on a person's life through the metaphor of four stages—spring, summer, autumn, and winter. But more than just focusing on the changing seasons, the story delves into the emotional journey of life, exploring the challenges and beauty found in each phase.

As Moon So-ri spoke about the drama, she revealed how it brought back memories of her own mother. She recalled reading the script and being moved to tears, not just because of the story but because of how well it captured the feelings and experiences of her mother's generation.

However, what truly caught my attention wasn’t just the drama—it was the story about Moon So-ri’s mother. In a touching moment, Moon So-ri shared that her mother, Lee Hyang-ran, had started a new chapter of her life. After years of caring for Moon So-ri and her daughter, Lee Hyang-ran turned her focus to acting, beginning a second career later in life.

At an age when most people are winding down, Lee Hyang-ran dove headfirst into acting. She’s been auditioning for college students’ graduation projects and has even landed roles in several of them. Remarkably, she’s now appearing in more commercials than her daughter, Moon So-ri! Lee Hyang-ran’s journey serves as an incredible reminder that it’s never too late to pursue your dreams and passions.

She’s also become quite active on social media, sharing updates and glimpses of her acting career. Her courage to pursue acting in her later years is truly inspiring and reinforces the idea that following your dreams is not bound by age.

Reflecting on Lee Hyang-ran’s story, I feel immense admiration for her. Her determination proves that there are no limits when it comes to chasing what you love—age should never hold you back.

Roh Jae-won’s portrayal of Nam-gyu, the club MD in Squid Game 2 , definitely left a mark on audiences with his intense scenes and memorable lines. But here’s a twist: the actor revealed that he actually had his eye on a different role altogether in the series. So, which character did Roh Jae-won want to play? It turns out, he was eyeing the role of Hyun-ju, a character that would have allowed him to dive into a completely different, more intense experience.
