Describing why she was particularly drawn to the role of Choi Sun Hee, Park Ju Hyun shared, “Unlike the other characters I’ve played up until now, the character of Sun Hee has a passive side to her. So I really wanted to take on the challenge of playing her no matter what.”

“Sun Hee is an extremely nice and upright girl,” continued Park Ju Hyun. “She’s also a girl who has no choice but to be that way. However, she’s also a character who changes and grows because of the people and events around her.”

Explaining that she tried to make Sun Hee’s perspective relatable to viewers, the actress added, “A passive character can sometimes come across as frustrating or unlikable, so I tried to portray her emotions as deeply as possible.”

As for her approach to the role, Park Ju Hyun revealed, “I tried to focus on Sun Hee’s inner cry deep within her heart. I spent a lot of time pondering the reason she built a wall around her heart, what it would be like to live life like that, and whether Sun Hee is truly happy. Because my personality is on the easygoing side, I made efforts to restrain myself in order to portray Sun Hee, who isn’t like that at all.”

“I thought about what kinds of emotions Sun Hee, who seems strong but is actually weak on the inside, would experience while going through this incident,” she went on, “and I focused on her situation while acting.”

Park Ju Hyun also recalled, “There were differences between the Sun Hee imagined by the director and the Sun Hee that I had in mind. But we both saw one another’s sincerity in wanting to create a great drama, and after the first shoot, the director told me that the Sun Hee I had in mind was a good fit.”

The actress concluded, “I wound up playing a role that is very different from the characters I’ve played up until now. I was so happy and had so much fun during filming, and I hope that viewers will also be happy while watching the drama.”
