Quotes 

“I was actually a loner in elementary and middle school. I never experienced anything as serious as the school violence you see in the news these days, but I do have experience being bullied. The biggest sentiment I had throughout that time was that I could not overcome being bullied no matter how hard I tried.”

“I tend to relate my personal experiences to characters when I am acting, and I was able to really do that this time.”

“When I am in a relationship, I am very trustworthy.”

“I think [Han Seung Yeon] also thought that I would be having a hard time [adapting in the Hello My Twenties! 2]. She would energize and comfort me a lot. Thanks to her, the time it took for me to adjust was significantly shortened.”
