[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] Actress Han Ji-hye revealed, "My appearance fees were significantly reduced after marriage," and actresses Jeon In-hwa and So Yoo-jin empathized with her.

On the 20th, MBN's 'Naturally' aired a segment where Jeon In-hwa invited Han Ji-hye and So Yoo-jin to spend time together.

During the broadcast, Han Ji-hye said, "Women start to struggle between work and motherhood as soon as they become mothers." When she added, "I had a hiatus of about two and a half years after marriage. When I tried to return, my appearance fees were greatly reduced," So Yoo-jin sympathized, saying, "They reduce it even more after having children."

Han Ji-hye confessed, "It was really hard to start again. There were prejudices from directors and writers that I wouldn't be able to focus on work. There is also a 'hyunta' (reality check time) that comes after marriage."

In response, Jeon In-hwa said, "I also took a seven-year break in the middle. It was a hectic time when my children were in middle and high school. It was the peak right after the drama 'Ladies of the Palace' ended. I returned with 'King of Baking, Kim Tak-gu,' but the pressure of 'Can I do well?' was indescribable."

So Yoo-jin added, "After returning post-childbirth, I received an award and kept crying. I was thinking, 'Thank you for letting me work again.'"

Jeon In-hwa advised, "You might be worried now about being pushed out from the roles or projects you want, but if you work hard from your current position, opportunities will definitely come."
