Goo Hyesun for Ceci February 2012
Goo Hyesun on the Cover: "Because She Is Goo Hyesun, Her Values Are?"
She is spending her 20’s beautifully and passionately. “I have let go (emptied) little by little on my own and now I am a bit more comfortable as a person.” In a lighter body, she has transformed into a pilot and she is again taking flight. As a 29 year-old, what are her rules for existing/living?
I (the interviewer) felt unclear about Goo Hyesun. She is a representative ulzzang with her white skin and big eyes. When I wondered about her acting, she confirmed her presence through Jandi in Boys Over Flower and she even made her own movies. She also wrote a book and came out with her musical CD. She appeared in The Musical and now in Please Captain. Her acting work has been consistent. She made people react at her with “What!” and also with many various comment about her. Even so, she remains energetic and diligent. To do what she does, one needs 30 hours in a day and 10 days in a week. What is her source of strength? That was my curiosity about Ku Hye Sun before interviewing her. She looks so frail yet her energy and strength abounds. Where does she get it?
Q: You seem like a person who has a lot to say and lot to show. What is it that you ultimately want to say?
A: That also changes every year. Up until not too long ago, I liked stories that are vague and reckless. These days, I like stories with warmth. I feel that whether I am acting or making movies, I want to be able to add to empowering people’s lives. If I see a movie that makes me feel bad, I feel bad all day. But if I see a movie about a mother, I feel like I want to be good to my mother.
Q: Were there any recent movies that moved you?
A: Rather than a movie, I was very moved when I read the script for Please Captain. I cried a lot reading it. I did not feel sad. I felt warm inside. Also, my movie that is about to open soon is a warm story.
Q: It seems like you came up with all your creative work with your desire to communicate with others.
A: Even at the time when I wrote the novel, I think I wanted that. When someone would tell me that s/he read my novel, I felt as if I met a friend. I also felt sort of exposed. But then, there came a time when I felt as if I am the only one who talked. I kept on searching for more from others. I wanted others to keep on reading my book and keep on watching my movies. My greed intensified and finally I asked myself, ‘why am I doing this?’ I started to accept that I should not expect more from others. Previously, I did not feel satisfied with myself. Even so, I felt as if I was trying to live by fulfilling other people’s standards. Now, I want to live little more for myself and I want to be patient for my sake. These days, I have been thinking that I would like to do what I want to do and spend more time with people who like me for who I am. But I know that not all people look at what I do. People choose what they want to look. I cannot make people do anything. People’s tastes differ. So, I am thinking that I do not really need to be worked up by other people’s negative opinions of me.
Q: You seem happier. And you seem to have become stronger/firmer. Are there occasions where you may? “dig for underground tunnel” ? (maybe the interviewer is asking whether she may get depressed and want to hide??)
A: Now, I don’t have feelings of ‘slump’ about work. Previously, I used to get stirred and hurt by what others say. Now, I think that if I only think of myself as a some great person, I would get hurt by others’ comments. It is all because I thought of myself as extremely special person… But, in reality, not one person has as much concern for my welfare as I would for myself. That is why I do not have to shaken so hard by other people’s views about me whatever they may be. If good things happen, there will also be bad things that happen. So, it is good to live one day at a time. Tomorrow comes again and the cycle repeats.
Being a celebrity means always struggling with the public’s judgments.
And, nothing I can do can change that. I am sure that I also have prejudice/bias against some certain people. But, it has been my experience that I cannot always change such judgments just because I do my best. It is the person with the bias who must change not the other way round. If the person is a good and yet I have bias against that person, even if that person does something good, I may still look at that person as just pretending to be good. It is sort of similar to that. I don’t think that it is something that I can do anything about. It is impossible for everyone to like me. Even if things do change, it takes a really long time.

Goo Hyesun used to bother me a lot with her constant publishing of work in the industry. I thought that she was really over hyped about. Though I might not be her greatest fan now, I still admire her work ethic.Hopefully, one day, I will be able to do more than she has done! Everyone, fighting! :D
