Famous Actress Honestly Reveals How She Feels About Comedian Imitating Her
On October 7, actress Kim Hee Ae appeared on Shin Dong Yup’s YouTube channel to promote the movie A Normal Family.
On the show, she revealed her honest feelings about comedian Kim Young Chul, who had imitated her voice over the years.
Kim Young Chul previously garnered much attention for imitating Kim Hee Ae’s role in the drama Secret Affair.
Kim Hee Ae’s reaction to this was hard to read as she responded positively with a not-so-bright expression.
If I can influence you, that’s fine.

Seeing this, Shin Dong Yup asked, “Noona, you don’t like Young Chul, do you?”
She then gave a more detailed explanation regarding his voice impersonation.
It’s cute, and I appreciate it when other people imitate me. It feels like they are promoting me, showing that people are watching me.

However, regarding Kim Young Chul’s impersonation, she had something else to say.
But with Kim Young Chul, what he does is different. Young Chul said that I liked his imitation, but I have never said anything like that. But he also said I don’t like him too, so I can’t say anything.

But for Young Chul, that’s his job. You have to exaggerate it a bit for people to find it funny. I respect that. But that doesn’t mean that I like it when they come on TV and imitate me.
