On that day, Lee Hye-ri explained the reason she participated in ‘Friendly Competition’, saying, “When I first read the scenario, it was strange. And the writing was really captivating, so I thought it would be an honor and enjoyable project if I could participate together”.

She also said about her character in the drama, “She is a character who ranks first in the entire school in the top 1% high school in Korea. Her looks, family background, and grades are all perfect. I don‘t know what she’s thinking, and I feel a variety of emotions that make me want to be close to her but also scary. “The character Jay is an unfathomable character,” she said, adding, “I‘ve played characters with a lot of warmth so far. This time, I’m a friend with a lot of coldness. I expressed the sensitive and sharp points that I have.”

Meanwhile, ‘Good Competition’ is a mystery girl thriller about friends who reveal their desires to ‘Seul-gi’, a transfer student to Chaehwa Girls‘ High School, one of the top 1% in Korea where fierce college entrance exam competition takes place, and the suspicious death of her father, who was a member of the college entrance exam committee.
