Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk gave a reference to the model-actor, who made her acting debut with the 2021 global sensation survival drama.
&ldquo;I think Ho-yeon is fighting every day against her fame, the expectations and the jealousy of her success, as well as her own desires. I often joke around and call her a &lsquo;warrior,&rsquo;&rdquo; Dong-hyuk said, before added, &ldquo;There&rsquo;s no doubt that she has the skill and courage to fight her numerous battles. I hope her acting career can become a true resting area, not her battleground.&rdquo;
