Kim Go-eun met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 22nd and interviewed the original Netflix series 'Eunjung and Sangyeon' (played by Song Hye-jin, directed by Cho Young-min). Kim Go-eun said, `I'm relieved that I think I've got a good work.'"When the work comes out, acquaintances around me contact me, but this time, the actors and seniors contacted me a lot. I thought that people in the industry gave me a lot, so I thought I was watching it well. Many people laughed, saying, `I've been watching all night because of you,' or `The sleep pattern is ruined.'
Kim Go-eun also said that she sympathizes with both Eun-jung and Sang-yeon. "There were times when I was Eun-jung and there were times when I was Sang-yeon. I can't say I understand everything, but I have an understanding of the mind that I have no choice but to do so. There were situations where I had that kind of mind, and I thought a lot that there might be a part where my thoughts or vision could be narrowed. I think the most heartbreaking line in this work is 'If a child thinks like that, the world will be like that'. Of course, I'm not a child, but I once thought that once I crossed my mind and settled down, a world was created, and it seemed easy, but it was difficult to come out. When I remembered the time when I struggled to come out like that, Sang-yeon really came out late and felt fortunate that he somehow came out, and when I heard the line, I thought 'Samuda'. It was a pity, and I wondered if Sang-yeon's life would have been different if he had come out early.
In particular, Kim Go-eun shed tears at the production presentation of 'Eunjung and Sangyeon' as she recalled the way to spend the end of the performance. "I was only going to tell this story at this time," Kim Go-eun opened up, "and actually lost my closest friends in 2023.It happened in a short time, and it's amazing that the works I filmed in the year of 2023 were 'Loving Law in the Large City' and 'Eunjung and Sangyeon'. I didn't mean to do that, and it was set up like that. But of course 'The Love Act in the Large City' is also about friendship, but the story of friendship in their 20s is dominant. When filming 'Eunjung and Sangyeon', I thought Eunjung, who left a work called Eunjung, was talking about Sangyeon. Looking at Sangyeon's diary, I thought it was a story that conveyed the child's life and my life well from the child's point of view. We don't really have a chance to let someone we really love go. Sometimes it's very difficult to protect someone's death, whether it's a grandmother or not, but as I told you on the bed at the last minute, then I could tell you, and I worked hard so that I could go well. I can also add 'Well endured', and I think that was a good opportunity for Eunjung. Of course, it must have been difficult for Eun-joong, who was left behind, but I wonder if he would have relieved his mind. When I think of that scene, I cry."
Kim Go-eun then said, "If my friend asks me to do this, I think I'll go."When I was in my 20s, I lived alone with my grandmother for six years. I lived alone for six years from my first year of college until I finished my work called "Cheese in the Trap". I had a lot of communication, and I told me everything that my grandmother didn't even tell my aunts, and it was like a friend. My grandmother, who only eats makgeolli with me, passed away, and I think she slept in the hospital for three days and night to see her death. I fell asleep at the last minute and couldn't see the moment. My dad woke me up and said 'Grandma's gone', but it came out in 'Unknown Seoul'. I think my grandmother made a will in advance in my ear a few days before she died. Tell me 'Go-eun, you live by giving. Help me a lot and live by giving me a lot, okay?He did it. Such communion. I also talk to my grandmother every day, and I feel fortunate that I was next to her for three days and all night, even though I couldn't keep my deathbed. It's very sad and hard in life, but I like the feeling that I accompanied him at the end. I read it because there are many stories of people left behind and what are well written in documents and books that follow the emotional lines of people left behind, but it was very difficult at the time and I wonder how emotionally difficult it would be to return alone. However, I think I will feel good that I made that choice after some time has passed."
Eunjung and Sangyeon is a work that tells the story of two friends who like and admire each other the most at every moment, and who are jealous, hateful, and intertwined throughout their lives. Kim Go-eun plays Ryu Eun-jung in the play, portraying the stories of people in their 20s, 30s, and 40s.
