On the 14th, tvN’Queen of Iron Man’, which caused controversy about distortion of history, ended with an audience rating of 17.4% on the 14th. It is thanks to the unique characters that this historical drama, set in the Joseon period of Cheoljong (Kim Jeong-hyun), was able to steadily draw a rising curve by rising to a double-digit audience rating in 4 episodes after overcoming controversy. Jungjeon Kim So-yong (Shin Hye-seon), who boast of’the tension of the world’ with the spirit of the Blue House chef in Korea, Queen Sunwon (Bae Jong-ok), who devotes all his devotion to maintaining strength and youth, and Cho Dae-bi ( Jo Yeon-hee), etc. In particular, the appearance of Jungjeon and concubine Hwa-jin (Seol In-ah) holding hands and helping Cheoljong stood out in the second half. There were times when they were born into a rival family and were jealous and suspicious of each other, but the process of joining forces under a common goal attracted viewers’ support.

Actor Seol In-ah (25), who met in writing before the end of the ending, said, “I chose’Queen of Iron Man’ because I think I can show a new image that I haven’t seen in other works. I put emphasis.” Regarding Hwa-Jin, who pretended to be a’fake Kim So-yong’ to win Cheoljong’s heart as a child, he said, “It may have been a villain to the viewers, but he was a character who showed love for Cheoljong with a single mind.” He considered the death of Nain Oh Wol-i (Kim Joo-young) as a heavy war due to Cho Dae-bi’s tactics, but he voluntarily asked for decommissioning and withdrew, fearing that he would become an obstacle to Cheoljong again in the future, showing the aspect of a’girl crush’ as ​​he went to the latter half.

The most memorable scene was also the scene where he told Yeongpyeong-gun (Yoo Min-gyu), “The body must be May.” It’s a scene where he turns away from the truth even in front of the person who cares about him the most and forces him to believe. “Others may have thought,’Hwajin is crazy,’ but my heart hurt when I read the script, I felt that Hwajin was in a very nervous state. It was even more so because I was empathizing with Hwajin.” Following MBC’s’Okjunghwa’ (2016), he challenged the historical drama for the second time. “I practiced speaking down tones, and also practiced lengthening my breath by reading books slowly. In order to play Hwajin, who is good at anything, I had to learn calligraphy, horseback riding, and even Korean archery.”

He said he was particularly interested in Korean archery, who has enjoyed various sports such as fitness, taekwondo, and jiu-jitsu. “I received a lot of praise as a result of practicing the basic skills at the archery practice range.” He added, “I recently watched the American BBC drama’Killing Eve’, and the role of Villanel (Jody Comer) was very attractive,” he added. In MBC’s’Special Labor Inspector Jo Jang-Pung’ (2019), he played the role of Ko Mal-suk, the secretary of the Myeongseong Group chairman, and performed action without a band. Before debuting as a KBS2’Producer’ in 2015, I have been a trainee as an idol for 4 years and learned to dance and sing, so I use my body quite a bit.

In tvN’s’Youth Records’ (2020), it is often remembered for his strong roles such as Sa Hye-joon (Park Bo-gum)’s ex-girlfriend and lawyer Jung Ji-ah, but Kang Ha-Nee, a young businessman from a high school graduate in the KBS1 daily drama “Tomorrow is Sunny” (2018) , KBS2 weekend play’Love is Beautiful Life is Wonderful’ (2019~2020), he has been active in various genres, including high school student Kim Cheong-ah, who prepares for police officers. “The biggest selection criterion is fun,” he said. “I will try to show another new look in any genre.” He added, “I want to appear in entertainment programs such as KBS2’s’Dog is great’, tvN’Yoonstay’, and studio Lululala’Walkman’.”
