Actress Kim Geum Soon is stealing the spotlight with her intense performance as Jennie’s mother, Mi-hyang, in Netflix’s When Life Gives You Tangerines
In episodes 7 and 8, released on the 14th, Mi-hyang shocks viewers by trying to pressure Geum-myeong (played by IU) into taking her daughter’s college entrance exam. She tempts Geum-myeong, who struggles financially, saying, “Don’t just think about yourself. Think about your struggling parents.”
When Geum-myeong refuses, Mi-hyang takes things to the next level—she falsely accuses her of stealing a diamond ring!
Kim Geum Soon is receiving huge praise for her chilling performance, perfectly portraying a mother who manipulates, pressures, and even lies to get what she wants.
At the same time, she subtly expresses Mi-hyang’s hidden anxieties, making the character even more realistic.
Viewers are hooked, leaving comments like, “Kim Geum Soon as Mi-hyang was unforgettable,” “She’s the real scene-stealer!” and “I’m so curious about Mi-hyang’s past.”
Kim Geum Soon continues to prove her talent, even in small roles. Last year, she wowed audiences in the films Star of Ulsan and Jeong-sun with her emotional performances.
She’s also been part of hit dramas like Mom’s Friend’s Son, I’m Not a Hero, and LTNS, showing off her versatility.
Meanwhile, part 3 of You Have Done Well, featuring Kim Geum Soon, drops on Netflix on the 21st. Are you excited to see what happens next?
