Kim Go Eun Addresses Her Shocking Recent Statements

Kim Go Eun explained a previous statement she had made that went viral.

On February 26, Kim Go Eun met with reporters to speak about her movie Exhuma. The mystery thriller film following the horrors that occur after a grave exhumation is quickly becoming a box-office success.

On this day, Kim Go Eun spoke about the success of her latest effort, stating that she hoped “The success continues.”

It’s a commercial film, so I think it would lose its significance if no one watched it. That is why I hope everyone watches it. Even if I am criticized, I hope they watch it first.

Kim Go Eun was then asked if she felt she had given the movie’s producers their “Money’s worth,”  alluding to a prior comment she had made while on a YouTube show.

The actress calmly responded to the question while sheepishly smiling, stating, “It was a joke I made at my expense,” before explaining what she meant.

You know, on those days when it is freezing but you have to film, or on days you know it’s going to be tough, it’s just something that I say to myself to get through it. I didn’t say this to criticize anyone but myself. There is truth in my words. When I am going through a hard time, I tell myself I have to do it because I am getting paid, in a joking way, to will myself.
