Lee Sora of MBC Sora and Jingyeong shows a 'spirit' that does not yield even in front of interviewers.
The episode of MBC Sora and Jingyeong (directors Kang Seong-a, Jang Ha-rin, Yoon Dong-wook; writer Shin Jae-kyung) airing at 9:10 p.m. on the 10th will reveal the tumultuous online English interview scene of Lee Sora and Hong Jin Kyung as they attempt to enter a Paris-based agency.
Earlier, Lee Sora and Hong Jin Kyung recovered the confidence they had hit rock bottom over after receiving practical advice from overseas expansion pioneer Han Hye-jin and encouragement from 93-year-old master designer Jin Tae-ok. In particular, they passed the first gate to Paris after receiving miraculous love calls from three Paris agencies that had been silent, and they completed thorough preparations by receiving English tutoring from top helpers ranging from Sung Si Kyung to the "honorary Brit" Baek Jin Kyung.
In the long-awaited interview, Lee Sora faithfully follows the coaching she received from Baek Jin Kyung that "English is about spirit." She boldly shouted to the interviewers "BAAAM (bam)!" and led the atmosphere on set. But in contrast to Lee Sora's runaway confidence, the interviewer beyond the screen maintained a subtle expression that was hard to read, creating tension. Watching beside her, even Hong Jin Kyung was reportedly stunned, saying, "What is this sister doing, really?"
Growing more nervous, Hong Jin Kyung eventually carried out a sudden action. When stuck on an English question, she showed a desperate 'cheating spirit' by furtively referring to a prepared "memo" to continue the interview.
However, faced with an interviewer who coolly tried to end the conversation saying, "I think I've heard all the necessary answers," Hong Jin Kyung could not hide her embarrassment. When Lee Sora asked whether they had been accepted, Hong Jin Kyung left a suggestive answer of "I don't know yet," heightening curiosity about whether this interview was a positive sign or the start of another obstacle.
