Additionally, describing Ha Seol, the actress said, “Her habit of digging into things whenever she gets suspicious made me see her as a ‘cute busybody.’” Even as tensions rise in the village after Go Jung Woo’s return, Ha Seol remains a warm, unbiased presence. Her free-spirited nature, often seen as she rides her scooter through town, adds a refreshing contrast to the growing suspense.

Furthermore, Kim Bo Ra shared that she enjoyed a comfortable atmosphere with her co-stars. “Since Ha Seol isn’t directly involved in the incidents, all the other actors treated me comfortably,” she shared. Byun Yo Han felt like an older brother, while Go Joon and Go Bo Gyeol provided supportive, familial roles throughout the filming.
