Oh My Girl's Arin Shares Excitement About Starring in Two Simultaneous Dramas

Singer and actress Arin from Oh My Girl expressed her feelings about starring in two dramas at the same time.

On the 23rd, an online press conference was held for KBS 2TV's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'My Girlfriend is a Gumiho', attended by actors Yoon San-ha, Arin, Yoo Jung-hoo, Chuu, and director Yoo Kwan-mo.

The new KBS 2TV drama 'My Girlfriend is a Gumiho' (written by Lee Hae-na, directed by Yoo Kwan-mo) is based on the Naver webtoon 'My Girlfriend is a Gumiho' (by author Matstar). It is a romantic drama about Kim Ji-eun (played by Arin), who suddenly turns into a handsome man overnight, and her boyfriend Park Yoon-jae (played by Yoon San-ha), who can't give up on her.

In the drama, Arin plays the role of Kim Ji-eun, Park Yoon-jae's lovely girlfriend who undergoes a sudden transformation.

On this day, Arin shared, "I really wanted to do a romantic comedy. My heart raced as soon as I read the script, and I found it refreshing and enjoyable." She explained her reason for joining the cast.

Arin added, "When I saw the scenes where I transform into a man, I initially thought, 'Do I have to play the male role too?' I was worried about how to approach it, but thankfully, Jung-hoo oppa did a great job, and it turned out to be fun."

Additionally, Arin is also starring in the ongoing Wavve drama 'S-Line'. Regarding this, Arin commented, "I'm grateful that both projects I filmed are airing at the same time. Since the genres are different, there will be differences in viewing experiences. 'S-Line' is more provocative and dark, while 'My Girlfriend is a Gumiho' is refreshing, bright, and charming."

KBS 2TV's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'My Girlfriend is a Gumiho' premieres on the 23rd at 9:50 PM.
