Quotes

“I am confident in using my body because I’ve been learning various things like figure skating, Korean dance, and ballet since I was little.”

“It would be a lie if I said that there was no pressure because it was my first drama after I decided to stand on my own feet as an actress, and it was also my first time taking on the lead role in a terrestrial television drama. However, I was able to put down some of the burden as I wasn’t the main character who leads the story. I learned a lot and received a lot of help while acting with my co-stars. Everyone around me helped me a lot.”

“I want to become an actress with a broad spectrum. I still have a long way to go in order to achieve that.”
