Acting Career
Unfortunately, Resurrection of the Little Match Girl was a boxoffice flop even though it received mixed review results. Her acting was plain and not so impressive. Both critics and audiences merely regarded her performance there as a re-play of her image-oriented works on the former TTL commercials.
Nevertheless, she continued participating into four Korean movies as leading lady by 2005. Her most successful film was teenage comedy Conduct Zero. Lim starred as a Ryu Seung-beom's high-school girl friend, Minhee. In this movie, she tried to change her fixed image into more lively one. In 2004, Lim challenged the new territory of Horror film genre and played the ghost roles on Doll Master and Sisily 2km. Although they did not get the positive reactions that Conduct Zero did, Lim could improve some acting skills.
Lim also took part in KBS weekend drama Bodyguard in 2003 and short-lived MBC sitcom Rainbow Romance in 2005. Currently, she is looking for another roles in the movies.

Famous quotes containing the words acting and/or career:
“Often, when there is a conflict between parent and child, at its very hub is an expectation that the child should be acting differently. Sometimes these expectations run counter what is known about children’s growth. They stem from remembering oneself, but usually at a slightly older age.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
