Kim Ji Won About Hong Hae In
The actress shared some details about her character in the upcoming romantic comedy-drama. She said Hae In appears to be a cold and straightforward person who lacks nothing in life. Gradually, the viewers will learn about her loneliness and hardships.
"Hong Hae In is a cold and straightforward figure who appears to have lived without lacking anything on her first impression. Hae In is used to running forward while only looking straight ahead, and she is a figure who is unfamiliar with restoring relationships while taking care of her wounds, so Hae In's wounds and loneliness touched me greatly, and I felt that it was unfortunate in some way," the actress teased.
Explaining the reason for choosing this role, Ji Won said she wanted to act out a person who appears cold but lovable. She might pretend to be strong, but she is a delicate person. Ji Won said she wanted to take on a challenging role with a different vibe from the previous project.
"I thought a lot so that Hae In's extravagant styling not only simply reflects her wealth but also links the character's situation and emotions. Her clothes become more extravagant as she feels happier," Ji Won explained.
