Regarding the embarrassing lines in the script, Lee Yeon Hee expressed, “It really was embarrassing. Before filming, I was really worried about what to do but I didn’t worry about it once filming started. I’m normally not that expressive and I don’t like the feeling of being embarrassed, so I just pretended to act cool.”

There were so many talented seniors so my flaws become very obvious.” At that time, Lee Yeon Hee was only 21 years old, a 50 episode drama for someone so young would definitely be burdensome. “I was worried if I would be able to last until the end, the script was difficult and everything was quite hard to accept.

She also expressed how she feels in front of the camera: “I still feel a bit nervous, but a lot braver now. Before, because I was young, I was afraid to express freely but now that I’m an adult, I have confidence.”
