Television series[edit]

"I think it is a pleasant change and an opportunity. In the end, it has been proven that good content can give joy and positive energy to mankind beyond culture, borders, and language. I think this kind of 'success' is driven by the desire for good content and sincerity. While the world is going through a time of pain due to COVID-19, I see it as a great achievement for the Korean drama industry just to be producing quality content while following the quarantine rules"
