As Kim So-jung is her first acting debut in 'Chilling Rommate', she has a special affection for her work and character, and is working hard to prepare for filming. In particular, it is rumored that she was completely immersed in the role of Jeong Se-ri in the recent script reading scene.

'Chilling Rommate' will be released as a drama version on various OTT platforms and YouTube channels after the theatrical release in the first half of 2022.
