'Donggung' actor Noh Yun-seo responded honestly to acting criticism, stating that she will work even harder.

'On the 23rd, we met with 'Donggung' actor Noh Yun-seo at a café on Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, and had various conversations.

'Donggung' is a Netflix series that tells the story of Gucheon (played by Nam Joo-hyuk), who has the ability to cross between the world of ghosts, and Saenggang (played by Noh Yun-seo), a palace maid hiding a secret. They answer the king's (played by Jo Seung-woo) summons and uncover the curse residing in Donggung.

'Noh Yun-seo portrayed 'Saenggang,' a palace maid who can hear the voices of ghosts. She said, "It has been a long time since my work was released after the film 'Cheongseol,' so I felt very nervous and excited. I even turned on Netflix by myself to watch it at the moment of its release. I am grateful that many people seem to like it."

'Noh Yun-seo, who is taking on a fantasy historical drama for the first time, said, "Since this was my first attempt in this genre, I learned so much. After finishing all the filming, my first thought was, 'It was fun.' At first, I had great ambition to take on this challenge, and I learned a lot about how to effectively express this genre and how to do it better. This made me want to try this kind of genre again in the future."

'She continued, "Since this was my first historical drama, I had many discussions with the director about how to implement the dignity and elegance of an Ongju character. We planned to enter filming after sufficient consultation. Saenggang has many scenes with senior actors and many scenes interacting with Gucheon, so I tried hard to express the differences in emotions depending on my counterpart."

'She added, "Acting using CG for the first time, such as scenes where she is surprised by seeing a formless being, was also new. In the process of expressing the fantasy world, I learned a lot about how to make it look effective and newly realized how to use facial expressions. There were truly many things I learned and felt."

'She also honestly shared her thoughts on reactions related to her acting. Noh Yun-seo said, "Since this was a work I started with the mindset of taking on a challenge, there was some pressure. I am aware of the reactions after the work was released and am listening carefully. Like all actors, I feel regret about my own acting. Especially since this is my first time in this genre, there were parts where I myself felt regretful in the early stages."

'She then said, "If viewers also felt that way, I think I must work even harder. I am grateful that they are telling me these reactions. It made me realize 'it could look like this,' and pointing out not only parts I was aware of but also parts I had overlooked was a great help."

'Noh Yun-seo said, "I did my best during filming. However, when working on any project, there is a moment when you gradually become one with the character, and I think I became more emotionally immersed as Saenggang over time. Going forward, I will continue to improve my shortcomings and strive to show even better performances."
