'Busan girl' A Pink's Jung Eunji talks about her role as a high school friend with Eun Jiwon who is 15 years older than her.
Jung Eunji's latest filming is in tvN's sitcom 'Respond 1997'(tentative title) as the main character who is a high school student in love with the group H.O.T
This sitcom is brought together by KBS 2TV Happy Sunday-Qualifications of a Man's Shin Won Ho PD and 1 Night 2 Days's former main writer Lee Woo Jung.
In addition to Jung Eunji, the sitcom features Eun Ji Won and Seo In Gook.
Especially the roles of Eun Ji Won and Jung Eunji as same-aged friends which built a great rapport between the two of them.
In reality, former Sechs Kies member Eun Ji Won who was H.O.T's rival has sparked interest due to his leading role as a big fan of H.O.T in the show.
The part that catches attention is the age difference between Jung Eunji and Eun Ji Won.
Eun Ji Won is a 1978'er while Jung Eunji is a 1993'er.
That's a huge difference of 15 years.
In a latest interview with Newsen, Jung Eunji told about the worries that she had when she had to speak in informal language in the show with her sunbae who is much older than her.
She said "I was very nervous as my acting partner was Eun Ji Won subaenim. There was a huge age difference but I just had to treat him as a friend in the show. Honestly, my thoughts were frozen"
"Since Eun Ji Won sunbaenim looks young, I had not much worries. But rather I had worries about how I should act infront of sunbaenim "
"Luckily I took on the role of a Busan girl. Since my hometown is in Busan, I am confident of my saturi acting.
Not even in my dreams have I thought of being able to be a singer and an actress. I am just moving on and holding on to my dreams as a vocal trainer... it's really fascinating" and she laughed.
On the other hand, A Pink who swept away the other rookies last year is currently promoting their title track 'Hush' which was released during early-mid May
