Han So-hee Recognizes Her and Says, “Are You Really Jennie?”
According to reports by Newsis and Sports Kyunghyang, Lee Ro-eun attended the promotional event for Han So-hee’s film ‘Intern’ on the 22nd. Han So-hee spotted Lee Ro-eun while interacting with the audience and repeatedly asked in surprise and delight, “Are you really Jennie?”
Han So-hee then said, “How did you grow so much?” and “Do you remember me?” before hugging Lee Ro-eun. Lee Ro-eun appeared shy in front of Han So-hee, and the two also took photos together. The video capturing this meeting was reportedly posted on social media by Lee Ro-eun’s mother. The video also included scenes from the drama in the past and photos from that day.
The brief meeting drew attention for reasons beyond the fact that the actresses were seeing each other again after a long time. For viewers, the images of Yeo Da-kyung, played by Han So-hee, and the young Jennie remain vivid. As the characters’ relationship at the time overlapped with the actual reunion, the scene made the passage of 6 years feel even more tangible.
The ‘The World of the Married’ Connection Formed as Yeo Da-kyung and Jennie
Han So-hee played the role of Yeo Da-kyung in ‘The World of the Married,’ which aired in 2020. Lee Ro-eun played Jennie, the daughter of Yeo Da-kyung and Lee Tae-oh. Sports Kyunghyang reported that Jennie was written as a three-year-old character at the time.
Yeo Da-kyung was portrayed as a character who formed a relationship with Ji Sun-woo’s husband, Lee Tae-oh, and then built a family with him. Han So-hee’s Yeo Da-kyung created intense conflict in the series, while Jennie appeared as the young daughter of that family. As a result, this reunion can be seen less as a continuation of the drama’s tense story and more as a scene showing the friendly connection between the actors after the series ended.
Han So-hee’s immediately calling Lee Ro-eun Jennie also drew attention. The character’s name brought memories of past scenes to mind, while the grown-up child actress made the passage of time feel real. Although the story of ‘The World of the Married’ had already ended, the memories shared by the actors who performed together in it continued anew at the promotional event that day.
