An interview was conducted after the photoshoot. Kim Tae-ri candidly talked about her experience participating in dubbing and live-action filming for Netflix Korea’s first original animation, ‘This Star Needs,’ which is scheduled to be released in the first half of the year. She said, “When I was very young, I dreamed of becoming a voice actor for a short while. I often imitated the dubbing of foreign films that appeared in animations or TV, so I was grateful that this opportunity came to me.” She added, “For some scenes, I actually filmed them with the camera director as if I was filming a movie. “It was fun and amazing to see not only the voice dubbing, but also the movements I acted being applied to the character‘s movements,” she confessed.

When asked about her recent activities, she answered, “I think these days, I’m at a point where I want to be more relaxed.” Kim Tae-ri expressed her affection for the set, saying, “When I see people focusing on their work, I feel that they shine. When I see them excited and happy about their work, I also get good energy.”

Regarding the great interest she received for her role as Yoon Jung-nyeon in the drama “Retirement,” which ended at the end of last year, she said, “I think it‘s the first time I’ve felt that people of various age groups cherish a work, even as an actor. In particular, I‘ve heard a lot from people around me, ’My father watches it diligently.‘ It was cute and touching to imagine the fathers in front of the TV when it was aired,” making everyone laugh.
