On the 11th, TenAsia met Lee Na-young at a café in Samcheong-dong, Seoul. Honor: Their Court, ENA's Monday–Tuesday mystery-thriller, follows three female lawyers who confront a major scandal from their past. Lee plays Yoon Ra-young, a celebrity attorney at L&J (Listen and Join), a firm that specializes in representing female victims of crime.
When asked how her husband reacted to the drama, Lee recalled, "He read the script and said it would be very demanding. As a fellow actor, he understood that the role would be difficult to portray." She laughed and added, "He didn't watch the whole series with me. He felt a bit embarrassed by my acting, so we watched some episodes together and some separately."
Won Bin has been on hiatus from acting since the 2010 film The Man from Nowhere. "He does read scripts," Lee said. "He still has a desire to act. When we watch a great film together, he says, 'I'd love to do something like that.'"
Asked about her future plans, Lee said she tends to follow her instincts. "I don't have any fixed plans or strict boundaries about the kinds of roles I should take," she said. "If a good project comes along, I tend to choose it without hesitation."
