Moon Geun Young has been laying low, and finally popped up and say hello on a Spring day.
English translator: Moonsclub@twitter
MC: Living a calm everyday life, she stood in front of the <Marie Claire> camera, not bcos of new work, nor special issue, just bcos the breeze of Spring. Living a stilly life throughout the Winter, she took off the heavy clothes one by one, after a long time, she stood in front of the camera saying hello with lighter body and mind. After finished the work of <Goddess of Fire>, her (Europe) travelling at first made grievous inroad of the tranquility, and not least of herself, necessarily wore away. Work out, and work out, and work out idly again. Everyday life is so simple and full of blank space.
Moon: When acting, I am supposed to be concentrated and devoted all of my energies, so when I am not at work, I'd like to have a very comfortable and quiet life, I do not want to think intentionally too, I naturally has lots of thinking of one kind or another, untiring in my efforts, while acting, my heart is strenuous not "Moon Geun Young" but the character, suffering heart through the character throw away. Yet, when I back to my usual self, thoughts and worries come back and pile up, agonize me and out of control. Therefore, when I am off-work, occasionally, I'd like to do nothing, just space out, that is most comfortable.
MC: Moon Geun Young's Spring filled with blank space . And in the Spring of 28, greeting her debut of 15 years, it is unusual and worthy.
(translator: the passage cited below are Moon Geun Young's part only, MC's part in brief or skip)
Moon: I am on the Spring break, originally, I do not like Spring, without reason, something that make me feel unstable, perhaps, time to work again, right now feel like I am being dragged into a whirlpool of emotion, time is arrived to work again.
Moon: Now I am get used to work and off-work, pretty long time repetition time has to fit in too, no more strenuous and distressed after finished the work. But when the character what I played had vanished, but I am still filled with too many emotions, sometimes it is backbreaking to back to 'myself', as well as giving or receiving feelings, a new thing to learn but difficult. So without emotion, force myself to calm down
Moon: I am working towards trying to break down something that has never lived, Just me and then many reflections, every thing is natural to me, I think people are trying to imprison me and watch. In order to show a fresh me, I've given much thought to this matter, nevertheless, people still eye me and say "whoa, what she is trying to do again?". Sometimes even I am confused, what kind of person I am in real.
Moon: Will this work hits the jackpot, or receive the prize or not, in the future, the pressure that I must meet the expectation was formed. Such burden was built and permeated. Eventually, looking for myself to raise expected value, trying to do so much more to learn and grow. Yet I am an ordinary person, can not fulfill the expected value all the time, and that kind of thing repeating, I am suffering.
Moon: When I started acting, I feel like to quit, as after finished shooting and back to school, friends are not the same as old days, prior to that, they are really good fellow to hang out, in an instant, lots of change happened. Citing the thot of "I didn't mean to start acting bcos of these", I want to quit the job. I tried to hold out against the crisis, sometimes, tried to run away. Started working at an early age, it seemed me a wild field, sometimes afraid of the battlefield. Under such circumstance, let me think if I can not acclimatize myself to the environment. I think there are a lot of parts that I am not enough to live on as an actress. Acting is interesting and strenuous work succeed each other, anyway, when serious consider quitting, a lingering of love toward acting, then consider again once more. "I do not think it is right time to quit yet, let me do some more", I am afraid maybe my whole life.
MC: next work for the 20's?
Moon: Obstinately greedy to be part of an unforgettable work for a lifetime. Not long ago, I watched Leslie Cheung's movie <Happy Together> (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_Cheung)
, <Days of being Wild> (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_of_Being_Wild) on TV one and another, I was suddenly envied him so much. Actor Leslie Cheung, and his acting, people always remember he was attractive and fabulous. Very envy he enjoy his acting in the nice work, when people think of the film, his expression, lines, way of talking are not forgettable for a lifelong. It does not mean there is a character or work that I can take right now, just wish that I have the chance to play the unforgettable scene.
MC: Do you want to go to travel again before 30?
Moon: I'd like to travel more, see, feel, and think. Returning home day is closer, that is good thing, but hate the journey is over. I even do not think of when to go home. Planned long before, wanted to wander aimlessly from place to place. Go on a trip to a nicey-nice place, I will stay a few more days, or even months, live and meet new people, go out with friends. It looks good to set out on a trip truly free, that moment is absolutely happy and peaceful. Acting from childhood, I did not know freedom exactly, people around me asked me is not it stifling? I think I was living with enough freedom, but in a moment, deep in my heart, I am long for freedom.
MC: Actors equip sharp sensitivity that keep them from understanding and knowing how to express life, 'destiny' so to speak. And with stronger sensitivity by nature is obviously exhausted.
Moon: If i didn't under sensitivity control, I will be stronger than now. I wish this year will be a peaceful and restful year, every moment I believe 'only to get thru it now, I will be more stronger' . Anyway, bear with it, for a moment, next thing I knew, strong disappear completely. Maybe when I become 30, 40, I will keep going on like that. I guess superior the very same, little by little, I can handle, just only swayed by sentiment easily. Lots of distressed days bcos sensitive of nature, it is fate.
