She may have become a half-human, half-undead "jeolbi" in hit Netflix zombie-dystopian series #AllOfUsAreDead, but Cho Yi Hyun's (@yihyun_1208) future is anything but bleak. In fact, it's looking pretty darn promising — overnight recognition now marries the 22-year-old's sincere passion for acting. But don't get her wrong; fame and popularity was never the goal, more than that, it's the sense of satisfaction in "surprising" viewers of her on-screen range, jumping from the cheerful Jang Yoon Bok in Hospital Playlist, to the reserved Choi Nam Ra in All Of Us Are Dead. "I will continue to work hard so I can show more sides of myself in the future," she says. "It is indescribable how rewarded and proud I feel whenever I finish a piece of work that I have put all my heart into."
