Jin Se-yeon has seemed coy until now. However, meeting her in person revealed that she smiles a lot and is a lot like a little sister.

We met Jin Se-yeon with smiles at a café in Seoul. She was promoting her new movie "Enemies In-Law" and she claimed she saw it for the first time at the VIP premiere.

"It's my first leading role so I was very shaky. I couldn't concentrate. I haven't properly watched my own acting yet but before I knew it, the movie was over while I was thinking about it. I need to watch it 10 more times".

Jin Se-yeon made an attempt at a comedy movie for the first time. She usually seen in serious movies like "Bridal Mask" and "Five Fingers" so she looks more mature than she actually is but this time it's different. She finally played a young and cheerful character which seems to be exactly her.

"It was much more easy for me to make this movie. I was glad I could show you a brighter side of me. That's one of the biggest reasons why I chose "Enemies In-Law"".

The chemistry she creates with Cheol-soo (Hong Jong-hyun) who she's been seeing for 7 years, makes one feel good inside.

"Jong-hyeon is cute and that helped in acting out Cheol-soo. I watched on of his TV shows to get to know him but he was different in real life. We worked well together".

In the movie, Jin Se-yeon is very charming. She feeds Cheol-soo veggie wraps and looks at him with hearts coming out of her eyes. But Jin Se-yeon looked shy at the mention of it. "I really don't know how to charm someone".

"I have an elder brother and my parents say they think they have two sons. I was worried about the promotions of the movie too. But then I decided to go ahead with it and not be shy. My face was so red at the end of it".

Jin Se-yeon was carefree and she broke the ice with her great big smile and she says being in this industry for 5 years made her this way".

"I wasn't an introvert but I couldn't approach people easily. Then it became naturally. I think about how I can appeal to those working with me and I learn a lot going around here and there".

She wants to do something even brighter than "Enemies In-Law" next time.

"I want to be the funny one next. I think I can be more cheery and bubbly than this".
