First of all, YoonA shared her feelings about watching Miracle: Letters to the President herself. ŌĆ£I cried after I read the scripts. So I was looking forward to seeing how the feelings that I felt while reading the scripts would be felt on screen. I watched the movie twice, and I cried both times.ŌĆØ YoonA wanted to convey Ra HeeŌĆÖs lovely charm to the audience. ŌĆ£Ra Hee is both pure and lovely. Of course, the other characters I played were also attractive, but Ra Hee is the most impulsive and still has this innocent cuteness that you canŌĆÖt dislike. I also loved how the movie is set in the 80s. I always wanted to try a project thatŌĆÖs set in different times and filming with such outfits and props felt really good.ŌĆØ
What was it like working with Park Jung Min? ŌĆ£Jung Min approached me first, and I also greeted him warmly, so we got to know each other well. And we both had to study dialect, so we bonded over rather quickly. Actually, IŌĆÖve only filmed with Jung Min, so it just feels like I had fun with him. Rather than acting as Ra Hee, the chemistry between YoonA and Park Jung Min came out as Ra Hee and Joon Kyung. It was delightful and happy filming.ŌĆØ In the previous interview, Park Jung Min mentioned that he had been YoonAŌĆÖs fan. ŌĆ£He said, ŌĆśYoonA is a star in my heart.ŌĆÖ So I texted him, ŌĆśIŌĆÖm a star in your heart?ŌĆÖ and he replied, ŌĆśYoon-phrodite is the star in my heart.ŌĆÖ (laughs)ŌĆØ She added, ŌĆ£He said heŌĆÖs a big fan of GirlsŌĆÖ Generation, but I donŌĆÖt know if heŌĆÖs a fan of YoonA. If members sent us a coffee truck, heŌĆÖd put the membersŌĆÖ stickers on his phone and ask me when the members would visit the filming set.ŌĆØ She also candidly answered the question of whether she had any pressure playing a high school student. ŌĆ£In fact, I didnŌĆÖt really think about the age. I just loved the work. It was my first time playing a high school student. To be honest, itŌĆÖs a shame that I didnŌĆÖt get to wear a school uniform. I heard that people didnŌĆÖt wear school uniforms at that time. But I want to wear a school uniform once. Still. it felt nice to play a high school student.ŌĆØ YoonA mentioned her appearance on You Quiz on the Block, which became a hot topic. ŌĆ£Saying ŌĆśHello, weŌĆÖre GirlsŌĆÖ GenerationŌĆÖ at a public event and appearing on a show together brought back lots of memories. Now, many kids donŌĆÖt know that much about the GirlsŌĆÖ Generation. But being together like that, we had a chance to show GirlsŌĆÖ GenerationŌĆÖs charm, so it felt good. I think we can do it because there are people who support us.ŌĆØ Meanwhile, Miracle: Letters to the President will be released in the States on September 17th at CGV Los Angeles and Buena Park.
