Son Ye-jin Opens Up About Motherhood and Her Big Screen Comeback in No Other Choice

Beloved Korean actress Son Ye-jin has once again reminded the world why she holds such a special place in the hearts of fans. Making her long-awaited appearance on Chatting with Na PD alongside the cast of her upcoming film No Other Choice, the actress charmed viewers with her grace, honesty, and down-to-earth humor.

Life After Becoming a Mother

During the show, Son Ye-jin candidly reflected on how motherhood has transformed her daily life.

“I absolutely love traveling. I really do. I used to go without fail, but now that I have a baby, I can’t,” she shared with a warm smile.

The actress, who married fellow superstar Hyun Bin and later welcomed their son, spoke openly about missing the spontaneity she once enjoyed. Her heartfelt confession struck a chord with fans as it offered a rare glimpse into her personal world—one filled with both joy and sacrifice.

Choosing No Other Choice as Her Return Project

After a three-year hiatus, Son Ye-jin is finally returning to the big screen with No Other Choice. She revealed how she felt when first learning that acclaimed director Park Chan-wook wanted her for the film.

“Since this would be my first project after marriage, and because Min Jong is close to me, I felt a sense of comfort,” she said.

However, she admitted being surprised by the scope of the role she was offered.

“Any actor would want to work with the director. So I immediately read the script, but I wondered, what role am I playing? The role was that minor?”

Despite her initial hesitation, Son Ye-jin’s trademark humor shone through.

“I sort of threatened the director,” she joked, recalling her conversation with Park Chan-wook.

Still, she had one sincere request about the outcome of the film:

“Please make sure that after the movie is released, my friends don’t ask, ‘Why did you do that?’”

Warmth That Captures Fans Everywhere

Her openness, wit, and vulnerability during the interview quickly won praise from fans, who admire her not only for her beauty and acting talent but also for her genuine, relatable charm.

As she prepares for her big-screen comeback, audiences are eager to see how Son Ye-jin will bring her signature depth and elegance to No Other Choice. Much like the actress herself, the film promises authenticity, warmth, and a touch of timeless grace.
