The Moments Worth Noticing

Kim Ji Won says seeing her imagined scenes become real was a special feeling. Any actor will tell you that script-to-screen moment is magic, and it suggests she’s fully invested in Gye Soo Jung.

Lee Jung Eun is the scene-stealer here. She admits she isn’t a billiards pro, but she prepared hard and enjoyed filming. She also teased that the scene should leave viewers curious about Gye Soo Jung, so keep an eye out for it.

Kim Woo Seok, playing an intern, brings a very relatable energy. He says watching his two senior co-stars act was captivating, and that their presence helped ease his nerves. It’s a sweet reminder that even on a big production, a supportive set makes all the difference.

Why Fans Are Excited?
