The main characters are Jae-hee (played by Kim Go-eun) in the movie 『The Law of Love』 and Jae-hee (played by Kim Hyung-seo) in the Disney+ drama 『Gangnam B-side』. Kim Go-eun's Jae-hee is attracting attention for her bold and lively love view, while Kim Hyung-seo's Jae-hee is attracting attention for her contradictory charm, showing her will and strong inner strength to survive in the back alley of Gut Gangnam. The two Jae-hee, drawn by actors Kim Go-eun and Kim Hyung-seo under the same name, are growing and living in completely different personalities and environments, but they redouble their attractiveness to a kind of 'Jae-hee' character in that they pioneer their lives freely and honestly in common.
First of all, Jae-hee, played by Kim Go-eun in the movie 「The Law of Love in the City」, is a free-spirited and pleasant character who approaches love with confidence and honesty. Kim Go-eun emphasized her honest charm by playing the character Jae-hee in this work. It is because he has the boldness of living passionately every day without paying attention and acting as he pleases. Koo Jae-hee, who shows a strong will to live by protecting her chosen path in many ways of life, represents a modern youth that has a clear subjectivity and is honest with emotions. With the addition of Kim Go-eun's realistic and natural acting, Jae-hee, who has a free and imposing personality, is inspiring empathy in many audiences.
On the other hand, Jae-hee, played by Kim Hyung-seo in the Disney+ drama 「Gangnam B-side」, is a character who lives in the opposite background to Jae-hee in the movie. Kim Hyung-seo's Jae-hee, a club ace in Gangnam and standing at the center of every incident, lives day by day, risking all kinds of risks in the back alley of rough Gangnam. Jae-hee, who does not easily open her heart to anyone, shows complex and attractive psychology to viewers and creates deep emotions.
Kim Hyung-seo will play the character Jae-hee, expressing a tough and strong side on the outside, and a character with human anguish and conflict on the inside in three dimensions. Kim Hyung-seo, who was selected in his first drama audition and challenged to act, is expected to catch the audience's attention by completing the character Jae-hee with his sharp charisma and strong presence.
In this regard, director Park Nuri, who cast Kim Hyung-seo, praised "It was the 'Jae-hee' itself that I thought it would be", expecting Kim Hyung-seo to expand his acting world through a character named Jae-hee.
As such, the two Jae-hee, who appeared in different genres, had a common characteristic of living freely and honestly despite completely different environments and lifestyles. The two Jae-hee, who are pioneering their lives in their own way, from romantic youth to survivors in the dark on the other, are exuding timeless charm. The two actors, Kim Go-eun and Kim Hyung-seo, express their charms through the name of Jae-hee and give impressive characters to the audience.
