Victoria talks about the burden of following Jun Ji Hyun's footsteps with 'My Sassy Girl 2'

China's Sina Entertainment met up with Victoria on April 22 to talk about her movie, 'My Sassy Girl 2,' which has now premiered there.

According to the report, Victoria revealed the reason for choosing to act in the sequel to a classic: "I liked the story.  It matched me well and I thought it was a good opportunity.  I had to portray a new character because the story was different from 'My Sassy Girl.'  I was not stressed."

She then talked about the set-up of Jun Ji Hyun's character becoming a Buddhist nun. Victoria said, "That's the set-up.  I do feel burdened by that.  It's my first movie, and it was a production that featured Jun Ji Hyun, so of course I had no choice but to feel burdened.  It's a challenge for me.  I feel for sure that there is a strength that I can display."

The movie will premiere in Korea on May 5, but can be seen in China now.  Would you watch it?
