Jang Yeo-bin said that the news of her casting for ‘Everything We Loved’ was like a dream.
On the 3rd, an online production presentation for TVING's original series 'Everything We Loved' was held. Director Kim Jin-seong and actors Oh Se-hoon (EXO Se-hun), Jo Joon-young, and Jang Yeo-bin attended.
Oh Se-hoon played the role of Go Yoo, Hara's self-proclaimed basketball genius. Jo Joon-young plays Go Joon-hee, who undergoes internal changes before and after kidney transplant surgery. Jang Yeo-bin played Han So-yeon, a transfer student who stole the hearts of two boys.
Jang Yeo-bin said, “I was very surprised by the casting news. “It was like a dream,” he said. He said, “I wondered if it was reality. When I woke up, I thought I had dreamed. “I was grateful and happy beyond words,” he said.
Jang Yeo-bin said about the character, “She appears cold and secretive. “Meeting Yoo Yoo and Go Jun-hee made me laugh and my ordinary daily life became special,” he said. In the play, Han So-yeon falls in love with two men. Jang Yeo-bin said, “When I first read the script, I thought I would be more attracted to Jun-hee. “After filming, I got to know the charms of a friend named Go Yoo and got to see Go Yoo in real life, so I thought Soyeon might be more attracted to Go Yoo,” he said with a laugh.
Jang Yeo-bin, an 18-year-old high school student in the play, laughed and said, "I didn't want to wear the school uniform during my school days, but now that I'm an adult, I want to wear it."
When asked if there was anything that reminded her of her high school days, Jang Yeo-bin said, “It’s a string earphone. When I was a senior in high school, wireless earphones started to become popular. Since then, it seems like it has become natural to use wireless earphones. “Sometimes I use corded earphones when they are not charged, and I feel nostalgic for being 18 years old.”
'Everything We've Loved Before' is a teen romance drama about 18-year-old best friends Yoo Yoo and Go Jun-hee, who start to resemble each other after kidney transplant surgery, and simultaneously fall for transfer student Han So-yeon. It is based on cellular memory syndrome (a symptom that occurs in organ transplant recipients, where the personality or habits of the donor are transferred). It will be released on TV on the 5th.
