Q. Why do you think was able to gain love from the viewers?

I think the characters in resemble our lives in reality quite a bit. Though not grandiose, the depiction of struggling and resolving various issues, and growing from it, truly reflects the stories around us or our own stories, which likely resonated with many.

Q. What do you think are the charm points of the character Bae Moon-jung in , and what is the synchronization rate between you and Bae Moon-jung?

I think 'Aljaldakkalsen' Bae Moon-jung is charming simply by her existence. I tried to act in a way that makes people think, 'It would be nice to have a friend or colleague like her.' And I think the synchronization rate is about 50%. While the character Bae Moon-jung was expressed through me, I also learned a lot from her while playing the role, so she is a very grateful character.

Q. What part did you pay the most attention to in order to depict the complex growth process of career concerns due to pregnancy and the intense litigation process?

The setting of 'pregnancy' could be one of the biggest changes in a person's life, so I had a lot of thoughts on how to express it. I asked many around me and imagined a lot, but I think the answer came from the chemistry with my husband, Ji-seok. I believe that because I had a supportive partner, the character Bae Moon-jung was also able to gain strength and move forward.

If I were to get married later, I've thought it would be nice to be with someone like Ji-seok. He makes sure to stand by me while allowing me to be myself, which I feel is truly precious.

Q. Is there a memorable line or episode?

There's a scene where I honestly tell Ji-seok, 'I really enjoy this work.' When I open up to the person I love, and that love returns to me as infinite support, I felt a strong light and a clear path shining in Moon-jung's heart. Personally, it was the most thrilling and heart-fluttering moment.

Q. How was the chemistry with the other actors?

Since we spent a lot of time together with affection for the work, I think we've become close with the other actors, and therefore, the chemistry on set was more than perfect. It was a truly enjoyable experience in a considerate environment, and I believe it will remain in my memory for a long time.

'You're right in everything you do, Moon-jung!' She lives her life more splendidly than anyone else, so I just want to give her a little more courage.

I hope it will be remembered as a work that captures the brilliant 30s of the 'associates' five actors in a slightly different way. Striving to become better people and better members of society, while exchanging warmth with each other... just like our 30s.

Q. What would you like to say to the viewers who supported and Bae Moon-jung?

I am left only with gratitude. All of the Seocho-dong team and Moon-jung will remain in your hearts and provide you with 'infinite support.' Thank you so much for your love!
