As for filling in the shoes of the Hallyu star, she admitted that she feels pressure since Yeo Wol, Son Ye Jin's role, has "received so much love" from the viewers.
However, she feels "honored to be asked to star in the follow-up movie" and a huge compliment "to follow in the footsteps of a senior actress" that Han Hyo Joo "admired and liked."
After "The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure," she is set to return with a new drama "moving" alongside a roster of talented stars such as Ryu Seung Ryong, Jo In Sung and more.
Park Hyung Sik
Following the post-apocalyptic K-drama "Happiness," Park Hyung Sik set million of hearts fluttering in Disney +'s "Soundtrack #1."
