“Doctor Cha” captivated viewers with laughter and empathy by depicting the dynamic life story of Cha Jeong Suk, a housewife of 20 years who becomes a first-year medical resident.
On June 4th, the drama ended successfully amid favorable reviews. Aside from the four main actors, “Doctor Cha” achieved success thanks to the performances of supporting characters with strong individualities.
Actress Kim Ye Eun, who played Moon Chae Yoon, also showed her presence and left a strong impression on viewers. Moon Chae Yoon, an intern in the family medicine department, is an extreme egoist who is accustomed to putting off what she has to do to others.
She received stinging glare and hatred from viewers due to her spiteful appearance, such as secretly passing on difficult tasks to Cha Jeong Suk (Uhm Jung Hwa).
Kim Ye Eun said that she directly auditioned to participate in “Doctor Cha”.
She recalled, “It was an on-site script audition. They gave me a script filled with swear words, and I swore coolly as I already got mad from the day before.”
Kim Ye Eun confessed, “The director said, ‘You have a lot of anger?’ I remember saying things that I wouldn’t usually be able to say at this time.”
She revealed, “The director told me, ‘I cast you because I want someone whom viewers can’t hate too much. Chae Yoon gets annoyed easily, but her smile is lovely.’“
Besides, Kim Ye Eun expressed her affection for “Doctor Cha”, “It’ll remain a work that gave me support such as ‘You can do it, too!’. It’s also a work that I’m very grateful for as it allowed me to meet great actors.“
She added, “I think Chae Yoon will remain deeply in my heart as a character who made me receive such hatred for the first time.”
Kim Ye Eun began her acting career in earnest by playing the role of Maeng Sa Rang in the 2018 drama “Sweet Revenge 2”. Afterwards, she appeared in dramas such as “22 Flower Road”, “Drama Festa – Recipe for Happiness”, “Romanced” as well as films such as “Illang: The Wolf Brigade” and “Goodbye Summer”.
Viewers are looking forward to what actress Kim Ye Eun, who left a strong impression through “Doctor Cha”, will show in the future.
