Actress Hwang Boreumbyeol is gaining attention for her emotional performance in SBS drama ‘Phantom Lawyer’, leaving a strong impression with both action and heartfelt scenes.
She first appeared as Han So Hyun, a spirit with a past story who “saved her younger sister and passed away,” and later returned by borrowing Shin I Rang’s body.
Through this, she helped victims of school violence and guided them away from making harmful choices, showing a “bright and righteous” personality.
Her performance stood out even more in Episode 8, especially during the reunion scene at the amusement park.
When her sister realized the truth after hearing the familiar words, “Let’s ride the last one again today! Hands up, okay?”, she ran toward So Hyun and embraced her in tears. The moment where both sisters cried and hugged created a deep emotional impact on viewers.
In Episode 9, So Hyun spent meaningful time with her sister while completing her bucket list, including visiting the amusement park, wearing hanbok, and going camping.
However, she ultimately decided to leave, wanting to return a “normal life” to her sister.
As her final wish, she chose “family reconciliation” and, with help, resolved long-standing misunderstandings between her sister and parents before preparing to say goodbye.
Hwang Boreumbyeol’s detailed portrayal of emotions, from guilt to longing and love for her family, added depth to the story and left a lasting impression on viewers.
