Moon So-ri "Lee Yeon-hee is different from the image I thought"

Actress Moon So-ri expressed her feelings about working with Lee Yeon-hee for the first time.

The production presentation for Disney+'s original 'Race' was broadcast live online. Actors Lee Yeon-hee, Hong Jong-hyun, Moon So-ri, Jeong Yun-ho and director Lee Dong-yoon attended the event.

'Race' is an office drama in which Park Yoon-jo (played by Lee Yeon-hee), who has no qualifications but is hired as a contract worker at a large company due to his passion, struggles to survive at work after being embroiled in a hiring scandal.

Regarding the reason why she chose to appear in 'Race', Lee Yeon-hee said, "While watching Yoonjo, I thought that I wanted to represent the friends of today's era. I prepared by asking a lot of friends around me how their work lives were."

Moon So-ri played the role of Gu Yi-jeong, everyone's role model and the best PR specialist in the industry. Moon So-ri said, "It was interesting that the subject matter was the public relations team. In the office work I filmed previously, it was the human resources team, so I was curious about what the public relations team was like."

Moon So-ri said she met Lee Yeon-hee for the first time through 'Race' and said, "The image I had before was soft, feminine, and infinitely clear, just like a cosmos." He added, "When I met her in person, she was confident and her voice was full of passion. I wonder if Lee Yeon-hee is this kind of person. “I don’t know if it happened because Yoonjo’s character was included,” he said.

Director Lee Dong-yoon also added, “He is courageous and strong.” Lee Yeon-hee responded, "I tried hard to show it as I am in an easy-going way."

'Race' will be released worldwide through Disney+ on May 10th.
