On the episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block that aired on the 14th, Kim Hyeyoon made a guest appearance.
After 7 years as an unknown actress, Kim Hyeyoon beat out an intense competition with a ratio of 200 to 1 to pass the audition for 'SKY Castle.' She recalled that she remembered the audition vividly, saying, "I went with the mindset of ''Well, I'm gonna get rejected again today.'"
She continued, "There were so many beautiful and stunning people there. Bora Unnie was one of them. I remember thinking, 'She's a real celebrity,' as I entered the audition room."
She went on to explain, "There is something called 'same-day lines.' It's the script given to you right on the spot. Usually, it's not that long but that day, it was about 7 pages long. The scene was about Yeseo talking about Nietzsche's concept of freedom. They gave us a long script filled with difficult vocabulary."
Because the person before her took a longer time, Kim Hyeyoon ended up having a little more time to prepare. She thought to herself, "Let's at least understand what these words mean before I say the lines," and started searching frantically on her phone. She looked up what Yeseo meant to say and went into the audition. She said, "I thought, 'I'm gonna get rejected again,' but I passed. Later, when I asked the director why I was cast, he replied, 'You were the only one who actually understood what Yeseo's lines.'"
