The newspaper companies must be loving it, judging from the way that fans are showing their love for their idols these days without battling an eyelid. Despite not being her birthday (6th September), fans of Kim So Eun took out a newspaper advertisement for their idol on 18th May to celebrate her coming-of-age day and becoming an adult at the age of 20 in Korea. Besides a photo of Kim So Eun from her Boys Before Flowers days, there were also words of encouragement:
"Will forever remember the beautiful memories that Chu Ga Eul left behind in Boys Before Flowers!", "Forever in support of actress Kim So Eun."
Kim So Eun who is currently in the midst of filming for The Man Who Can't Get Married and Fourth Period Murder Mystery, talked about her new projects when we visited her on the set of The Man Who Can't Get Married on the 15th.
"I currently filming for The Man Who Can't Get Married which will premiere on 15th June. I am working really hard right now towards my goal of becoming an even more mature, outgoing and bubbly female than the one you saw in Boys Before Flowers."
In her new drama, Kim So Eun is not going to be a high school girl anymore but a working female in her late 20s, and she is making extra effort towards her appearance to look like the real thing. So Eun expressed, "I have put on thicker make-up, more mature clothing, etc. I guess this is a prerequisite for an actresses when you go through an image change. I can't quite get used to it nor feel comfortable but then again, I become a high school girl again in Fourth Period Murder Mystery... hehe." So Eun looked like she was really uncomfortable with her new image. But we can tell that she is a pretty meticulous person, since she was grasping her script tightly and reading it, while doing the interview, taking extra care that it didn't fell out of her hands.
"I saw the original adaptation and felt that it was really interesting. There were some exaggerated comedy elements that are unique with Japan in that adaptation so I am now working really hard to try and display that in my own style instead."
There might be a huge disparity in age (22 years) if you add the differences in age between Ji Jin Hee and Yoo Seung plus Kim So Eun. But So Eun said, "It has been an enjoyable working experience with the both of them and there are absolutely no problems at all despite the age differences. (Yoo) Seung Ho has been guiding and taking good care of me like an older brother while it has been a breeze communicating with Ji Jin Hee oppa at the film site. Please continue to watch over my development!"
