Yeom Hye Ran received critical acclaim for her role and was nominated at the 8th Wildflower Film Awards and the 30th Buil Film Awards. She won the Best Actress award at the 21st Jeonju International Film Festival.

The acting was good, but Yeom Hye-ran's film career was not very favorable. She began her acting career as a stage actress in 1999 and made her screen debut in 2003.

Because she does not possess the beauty of "diving bird", she only has the opportunity to play supporting roles, faint cameos, her talent is therefore forever unrecognized. Since 2014, Yeom Hye-ran has only started to have her first TV roles, thanks to the coverage of the works she has participated in, her name has also gradually become more known to the audience.

Two years later, she took on the role of the villain, the greedy, mean aunt of the heroine in Goblin. That year, Goblin was popular all over Asia, so she was more or less interested in the audience when she turned 40 years old.

In 2020, Yeom Hye Ran landed her first leading role at the age of 44, in the drama The Art of Hunting Demons and Cooking Noodles. This is a blockbuster work on OCN and her impressive performance as a demon hunter with healing powers helped Yeom Hye Ran receive the Best Supporting Actress award at the prestigious Baeksang.

And now, at the age of 47, after the first 8 months of 2023, Yeom Hye Ran has pocketed up to 3 impressive roles, which is a respectable name of the Korean film industry.

Earlier this year, Yeom Hye Ran also went viral with the blockbuster "The Glory," also playing a mother who does everything to protect her daughter. Although she is only a supporting role, her performance is highly appreciated, even better than the female lead Song Hye Kyo.

Also from this drama, she and Song Hye Kyo keep a good senior-junior relationship. Before that, the two also had many scenes together, the relationship was also cemented from here. Yeom Hye Ran is also a rare artist that Song Hye Kyo shares on her personal page, which proves the extremely close relationship the two have for each other.

Currently, actress Yeom Hye-ran continues to give audiences constant goosebumps with her top-notch performance in "Mask Girl," a movie rated as the scariest of 2023.

In "Mask Girl," Yeom Hye Ran plays Kim Kyung Ja, a woman who fails at parenting. She expects too much from him, drawing a fantasy of a brilliant, handsome son who has a lot of girls chasing. Kim Kyung Ja doesn't seem to notice that her child is bullied because of her appearance, her mentality becomes distorted, and she isolates herself from society.

Only after Oh Nam dies, Kim Kyung Ja frantically seeks revenge. She didn't care what was going on behind it and of course assumed her son was always right. The revenge lasted for ten years, culminating in Kyung Ja also undergoing plastic surgery and appearing with a face that haunted viewers. A journey of revenge full of madness, blood and tears, Kyung Ja gradually becomes so dehumanized that he does not spare an even child.

Playing the role of Kyung Ja, Yeom Hye Ran really haunts viewers because her acting is so great. From the harrowing scenes, when Kyung Ja faces the death of her child, resentment and psychological distortion, frantically searching for information of Mo Mi or the final bloody battle, all are excellently portrayed by Yeom Hye Ran. Even compared to the three female leads who play Kim Mo Mi, Yeom Hye Ran is somewhat better.

Despite often appearing only in supporting roles, and very little acting ground, Yeom Hye-ran always completes the roundness and emotion in each scene. The veteran actress does not have to brace herself in scenes that need to be acted out for the psychological depth of the character, all levels of emotions. Hye-ran is very gentle, but from the pain to the sour smile, to the warmth of her character, she touches the hearts of the audience.

Yeom Hye Ran married in 2005 to her husband who is outside the entertainment industry. In 2012, Yeom Hye Ran gave birth to her daughter and took a break from acting for a while to take care of her family.
