Uhm Jung-hwa met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 23rd and had an interview with the end of the original Genie TV `My Star Like Gold' (Pak Ji-ha, directed by Choi Young-hoon). Um Jung-hwa gave up her beauty by showing her long perm hairstyle and red-hot makeup to transform into a bonanza in the play' has been evaluated. Uhm Jung-hwa said "I talked to the director while making the audience image, and such an image of a curly hair perm that we can think of is what we typically think of as an old lady." These days, there are no such ladies, and everyone is so pretty and hasn't changed a lot even in their 50s and 60s. So I drew a picture of how to make a broken appearance. I looked up a lot of images, and I think the listener who turned his back on the world must have bowed his head when he was on the street. When I bowed, I covered my face a lot, and I don't think I wanted to make eye contact with people because I'm Im Sera. From there, I thought of an image that can cover my face with long hair."
Then "I thought I would wear it because my body was broken and I gained weight, but I wanted to take a lovely listener, so I put a cute image on the color of the listener, and I thought I wanted to have a dream and a bright appearance." I wore a skirt to cover it, but it's too tight to wear a skirt, so I wore it again. When we shoot a drama, we can't film it in order, so I couldn't make my hair my own and wore a wig so that it could be worn right away", he explained.
Uhm Jung-hwa also said, "When I see your face, the flush on your face... 'Yuck!I wanted to make it possible, but I thought about what could be, and I put a lot of freckles. I thought I should create a situation where I was not managed. so that it can be markedly different before and after the change."
Uhm Jung-hwa also said, `Although I didn't gain weight, I ate it without any burden when filming. After the transformation, I went on a diet for about a month. Because you can't see it even if you eat it, so the clothes are comfortable and spread. I wondered if there was such a comfortable filming. However, while Sarah was on a diet, I also went on a diet, but I was exercising and dieting, so I ate a little less there and controlled my diet. I lost about 1-2kg, but I realized something. I went up to 44kg and 45kg when I did bestseller, but even if I lose it like that, I can't be a model body type. The body itself is different, so even if you lose weight, it's different. That's why I don't get greedy about dieting."
