Given her wide range of roles, when asked to choose which character she has played would she want to be friends with, her answer was quite unexpected! She chose her 2010 K-Drama character Seo Yoo Kyung from Pasta, and gave her reasons as to why she would reject her character Dong Baek from When The Camellia Blooms!

Dong Baek has a child and has Yong Sik [her love interest from the K-Drama] and a store to take care of so I think she would be too busy. I think MBC drama Pasta’s Seo Yoo Kyung would be my best friend.

She also showed her deep and caring side, revealing that when it comes to friends, it’s something that she thinks a lot about.

I think a lot when it comes to friends. I miss them often and express myself well to them. I have a lot of time and love to be around people. I also am a great driver so I pick up my friends a lot and give presents often.
