Girls' Generation member and actress Choi Soo-young shared how she became close with staff members, a lesson she learned from senior actors.
On the 16th, a video titled "The difference between 'cute' when men say it and 'cute' when women say it" was uploaded to the TEO channel.
That day on "Salon Drip," lead actors of the Genie TV original "Idol Eye," Choi Soo-young and Kim Jae-young, appeared as guests and talked. During the conversation, Choi Soo-young said, "When the other person says 'very surprising,' I take that as a compliment," and Jang Doyoun asked, "What words after 'surprising' did you like?" out of curiosity.
In response, Choi Soo-young said, "Surprisingly, very unpretentious," and Kim Jae-young showed sympathy, saying, "I think I said that too. Surprisingly laid-back."
Then Jang Doyoun said, "Rather than having the chance to see Sooyoung's unpretentious and easygoing side, people see her perfectly put together (and those appearances a lot)," and Choi Soo-young expressed resentment, saying, "No matter how much I show it, they don't believe it. No matter how much I go out and talk about it."
She continued, "But there was a reason for that. When I watch the making-of videos, I definitely wasn't like that. I kept doing this," and she recreated herself crossing her arms and staring with a cold look, eliciting laughter.
She said, "By my standards, in my view, I thought I came in saying 'Hello~,' but it wasn't like that," and added, "The senior actors I worked with would rusticly say 'senior' while the staff treated them well. So I observed and realized that, first of all, to become close you have to swear a little. They like a rustic kind of swearing. With loud laughter, the wall comes down."
In particular, Choi Soo-young said, "So I tried it once. I went to the youngest member of the lighting team and said, 'Hey XX isn't it hard?' Then they said, 'Yes, unnie, it's really hard,' and from that moment I became a very comfortable unnie," sharing an experience of removing a staff member's reservations.
In response, Jang Doyoun said, "Because in life a bit of this is necessary," but Choi Soo-young said with a bitter sigh that made people laugh, "But those kids come to the wrap party and say, 'Unnie, actually I'm Sowon,' and give me a letter and leave."
Meanwhile, Choi Soo-young and Kim Jae-young appear in the Genie TV original "Idol Eye," which premieres on the 22nd. "Idol Eye" is a romantic story about a star lawyer who must prove the innocence of a favorite who became a suspect in a murder case, torn between fandom and suspicion, and airs on ENA every Monday and Tuesday at 10 p.m.
