On September 6th, a pre-release video of the first episode of “Iron Girls” was posted on tvN’s official channel.
In the video, the participants shared their reasons for deciding to take on the challenge of a triathlon. Seol In-ah confessed, “I really can’t sleep. I’ve been taking sleeping pills for about 5 years, and it made me angry. I thought, ‘Why do I have to take sleeping pills to sleep?'”
Known for her healthy image, Seol In-ah explained her motivation for joining the show, “I wondered, ‘Am I not tired enough?’ So, I tried to live busier and push my body harder, which gave me this image of someone who lives a disciplined life. But in truth, I moved more just to be able to sleep. It’s ironic that I have a healthy image, yet I’ve never been truly healthy, which made me think that I really want to become healthy this time.”
She added “(Because I couldn’t sleep), when I took sleeping pills, I couldn’t focus on filming. From last year, I stopped taking the medication and tried to cope without it. For 3~4 days, I stayed up all night, and my immune system collapsed. I ended up visiting a university hospital and had to take 24 pills a day just for my skin. That’s when I first thought that I really wanted to get healthy”, surprising everyone around her.
