Jung Hae In tells what he likes about the character Soo Ho that he plays. Moreover, the actor admits that this character makes him show many different things to the audience.

"Soo Ho looks like an ordinary man, but he actually keeps many secrets and wounds from his past. His world changes when he meets Yeong Ro, played by Jisoo. Through this role, the audience can see many sides of myself as an actor. That is the most interesting thing for me when playing this character," explains Jung Hae In.

Jisoo, on the other hand, feels the attraction of Yeong Ro because she is very different from him when facing difficulties, "Yeong Ro is someone who is positive and full of hope; she is someone who always brings joy wherever she is. She has gone through various challenges and difficulties in her life, and trapped in various situations, but she handles them very maturely. Personally, that is the opposite of my characteristics. That is what I like about Yeong Ro.

During the filming of SNOWDROP, Jung Hae In and Jisoo were very supportive of each other. The 33-year-old actor revealed that they both discussed how to portray their characters in order to achieve better results.

"I always think about how Soo Ho will respond and adapt to certain situations. I had many discussions with the director about maintaining the balance of the character that Soo Ho needs to have, as he is not alone in facing this; the woman he loves also goes through difficult times with him. Jisoo and I talked a lot about this during rehearsals and formed our reactions to each other. It was a fun and supportive process," said the actor.

3. Jisoo Shows Her Acting Skills

Bringing a very different nature from Yeong Ro, Jisoo admitted that she tried to portray her character as naturally as possible. Because, this BLACKPINK member admitted that she has a personality opposite to the character Yeong Ro that she played.

"Throughout the journey from episode 1 to episode 16, Yeong Ro went through various experiences and showed various emotions. It was a challenge for me. I tend to keep all the feelings I experience when going through difficult times, while Yeong Ro dares to show and face what he feels. I thought a lot about how to portray the character as naturally as possible, because this nature is very different from mine," said the BLACKPINK member.
