maknaes. Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 'Miss Ripley' T-ara's Jiyeon's skilled Japanese catches attention T-ara's Jiyeon displayed her excellent Japanese skills. On the MBC Mon-Tues drama 'Miss Ripley' episode aired on the 6th, Jiyeon came out as the daughter of the Japanese prime minister. In the episode, she arrives in Korea but disappears into the hotel. Jang Miri (Lee Dahae's role) then roams around to find the daughter, having to solve the problem by going off to persuade her in person. Including Jiyeon and Lee Dahae's simple Japanese conversation, Jiyeon showed her command of the Japanese language during the formal meeting as well with her lines "Hello. My greetings were late. I'm the prime minister's daughter, Yoowu. I think of it to be an honor to be invited like this to a Korea-Japan Cultural Exchange 13th anniversary charity event". Jiyeon had also left a strong impression on the viewers with her acting as a homosexual. She earned praise for her acting for not looking awkward when she kissed her lover on the cheek in a friendly manner. Viewers left comments such as "She seems to have studied Japanese", "The Japanese pronunciation wasn't awkward at all", "It must have not been easy for an idol to act as a homosexual but it looked natural". *** Source: http://www.mydaily.c...57361115&ext=da Translations: maknaes. @ tiaradiadem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyokou Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Ah, so this is what my friend was complaining about on Twitter... I don't see anything wrong with her role as a lesbian but I suppose that's pretty shocking in South Korea. I really want to watch this now! I've been hearing good things about it. Jiyeon fighting! ♥ Thanks for the translation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooItsSyd Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I must say that she's a really talented actress, but I'm surprised that she's playing a homosexual. O; I praise her for being able to take on such a role. ;3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t-aranwaterjewel Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I'm happy that she played that role well and she's getting good feedback. Jiyeon's so awesome to be able to speak in Japanese well and play a role like that. Shows how professional she is Jiyeon Hwaiting~! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess3-ne Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I didn't had idea that she was playing that kind of role for this episode, it's kinda shocking actually, knowing how Korea is with that kind of topics. But she does really have my respect for being so brave and devoted to her acting job, she has grown up not only as a person, but as an actress. For those homophobes, don't complain, she was just doing her job. So good to see she has improved on her japanese, I remember on Dream Girls she wasn't that good with languages, but seem like she has been working hard for the japanese promotions. Jiyeon & T-ara fighting, i'm proud of my girls ^w^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
