Ha Jiwon reveals she once received psychiatric help

Actress Ha Jiwon shed tears as she shared about having to seek psychiatric help after filming the movie Sector 7. On an episode of Thank You, the guests had a candid discussion with each other and spoke clearly enough to cover the generation gap among the guests.

During the show, Ha Jiwon said, “After filming Sector 7 I received psychiatric help.  I could not break away from my character.  In the movie, the monster and all the people I love died and I was the only one left alive. But for some reason, I could not break away from the pain of that character for quite some time.”

“After the conclusion of the movie, I needed to go in for the script reading for Secret Garden, but I could not break away from my character on Sector 7 so the entire script reading was a mess.  I knew I could not do it alone so I sought out professional help,” the actress shared in tears.

Ha Ji Won added, “I don’t think I’m a fun person.  I get very invested to my character and when the project ends, I realize just how boring the real Ha Ji Won is.  So even when I am on a break I purposefully try to be more busy.”

We are glad Ha Ji Won was able to find help for herself, otherwise we may never have been able to watch the amazing chemistry between her and Hyun Bin in their breakthrough drama Secret Garden.
