The "My Little Brother" actress Lee Yo-won spoke about her debut.

She officially started acting with a movie in 1998 but she was actually a model from before that. She is technically the first generation magazine model.

Kong Hyo-jin, Kim Min-hee, Bae Doona and Shin Min-a were also models during that time and now they are all successful actresses.

Lee Yo-won said, "It was a natural thing to start off as a magazine model and eventually grow into acting".

"Many agencies looked at magazines and catalogues to look for new talent. I was a show model when broadcasting stations started asking me to come audition and I moved over to media when I passed".

She mentioned her friends who she has known for over 20 years and their success in their positions.

"They are my friends. They all have their own colors and they are successful. I am happy for them".
