On August 2nd, After School’s UEE attended the production conference for KBS’s upcoming weekend drama, “Ojakgyo Brothers“, where she revealed that she had difficulty getting drunk.
She explained, “I thought that I wasn’t good at drinking, but no matter how much I drank, I just wouldn’t get drunk. We go out for staff dinners at least once a week. Since I’m not with my seniors often, I went in with the mindset of taking every drink they offered me. Still, no matter how much I took, I wouldn’t get drunk. I was surprised at how strong my limit was.”
UEE continued, “Kahi and Dambi unni aren’t strong drinkers, so they’ll usually replace alcohol with soft drinks. Consequently, I had no one to compare myself to. Now, eating out is so fun that I always go. I get really upset whenever I can’t make it because of another schedule.”
Her experience endorsing various soju brands has since earned her nicknames like ’soju goddess’.
Producers revealed that it was this cool, outspoken image of UEE’s that fit well with her character in ‘Ojakgyo Brothers’. The drama begins airing on August 6th.
