The One Thing Kim Tae Ri Regrets About Her “Twenty-Five Twenty-One” Character

Twenty -Five Twenty-One quickly became one of the most popular K-Dramas of its year and continues to be a mainstay with International fans. Along with the storyline, fans everywhere are also falling for the cast!

Kim Tae Ri sat down for an interview, where she talked about her role, her co-stars, and more!

In the interview, she talked about her character, Na Hee Do, and shared how she was able to instantly bond with her character without any extra effort at all!

I read through the script smoothly … when I read my lines out loud, I just felt as if I were really Hee Do. I didn’t have any pressure over how I should portray this character…Hee Do is such a free-spirited child and I had never met this kind of character so it was a new experience.

She then revealed her regrets that stemmed from the drama becoming popular, and said that she wished she put more effort into her character after seeing all the positive reactions all over the world.

I feel like I could have done more with the character. I didn’t know that viewers would love Hee-do this much. If I had known that viewers see her as so cute and lovely, I would’ve tried to make the character more dynamic.

But I didn’t have enough courage.

Despite her regrets on how she portrayed Na Hee Do, it doesn’t seem like viewers felt the same way, given how popular the K-Drama was!
