Jeon Soni first began to seriously contemplate acting during high school. At that time, she enjoyed watching plays and movies alone. Although she knew that the acting in plays and movies was all fiction, she was captivated by how the acting felt more real than reality itself, which led her to dream of becoming an actress.
Jeon Soni made her debut as an actress in 2014 while attending university, through the short film “사진 (Photo)”. She continued to build her acting skills by appearing in various web dramas, and began to garner attention with movies like “여자들 (Girls)” and “죄 많은 소녀 (Guilty Innocence)”. However, she faced a slump during this period and struggled with whether she should quit acting. It was not until 2019 when she took on the lead role as Jang Mi-na in her first commercial film “악질경찰 (Hit-and-Run Squad)” that Jeon Soni broke out of her slump, leaving a mark on the public. Since then, she has appeared in dramas like “화양연화 (The Most Beautiful Moment in Life)” and movies like “소울메이트 (Soul Mate)”, showcasing her growing acting skills and development as an actress.
