Broadcaster Jang Young-ran looked back on the early days of her career, revealing that many people stepped on her to get ahead.

On the YouTube channel ‘Jjanhanhyeong Shin Dong-yeob’ released on the 15th, actors Kim Sung-ryoung and Ha Ji-won, and broadcaster Jang Young-ran appeared as guests and had a candid conversation.

That day, Jeong Ho-cheol asked Jang Young-ran, “It has been more than 20 years since you began your career. Were there not many people who stepped on you to rise in the early days?”

In response, Jang Young-ran said, “There are indeed many who stepped on me,” and added, “But later some of them completely change and there are times when they contact me first, saying ‘Can I go on there? Can A-list Jang Young-ran appear?’” She continued, “I do not feel like taking revenge. I came to think this is what revenge is,” and said, “It is not about stepping on that person again; rather, when I meet them, I greet them first, and in those moments I feel happiness.”

Hearing this, Ha Ji-won reacted, “Is it not that those people do not remember?” Jang Young-ran answered, “They cannot fail to remember; since I worked as a reporter and met them, I think they know.”

Then Shin Dong-yeob, in a joking tone, said, “For the first time today, let us name names,” drawing laughter. Regarding this, Jang Young-ran laughed and said, “It is a bit difficult to say. There are too many,” and added, “Even so, I hold no grudges. It is true. I forget easily, and I am not the type to harbor such things. I hardly remember.”
