Suzy shows ambition as actress

K-pop girl group MissA member Suzy attended the screening of her 2012 actress debut film “Architecture 101,” Sunday, alongside director Lee Yong-joo.

The two held a post-screening conversation with fans.

Director Lee credited the then 18-year-old Suzy as “competent,” saying, “She pulled off the role as Seoyeon without ever showing tiredness.”

To this, Suzy said, “Director Lee does not know, but I had found it difficult to adapt to the filming set until the third time,” and added, “It was my very first film and having to act a college student while still being a high school student in reality was a bit hard.”

“I tried to focus on being myself, and that helped my acting,” Suzy said.

The 22-year-old starlet told her fans to look forward to her upcoming film, “Dorihwaga,” in which she plays the female lead role as a famous Joseon-era chanteuse.

Suzy showed ambitions for bigger roles as actress, saying, “I want to try out a moving romance or a calm but lasting act.”

The budding actress recently signed to appear in TV drama “Uncontrollably Fond (working title),” slated for 2016, opposite actor Kim Woo-bin as the male lead.

This will be her first small screen role in three years since playing a supporting role in “Gu Family Book” in 2013.
