Actress Noh Jung-eui shared her thoughts on the end of ‘The Witch’.

As Channel A‘s weekend drama ‘The Witch’ ended on the 16th, actress Noh Jung-eui, who gave a passionate performance as ‘Mi-jeong’, who was called a ‘witch’ because those who like her get hurt or die, gave a hearty greeting.

Noh Jung-eui realistically portrayed Mi-jeong’s increasingly withering away from the great guilt and pain that comes with seeing those who like her get hurt or die, making viewers feel sorry for her. Mi-jeong, who even had to send her father Jong-soo (Ahn Nae-sang) away, had to leave her hometown as if pushed by the villagers‘ resentment, and Noh Jung-eui’s empty eyes as she acted this out added to the immersion.

As the drama drew to a close, Noh Jung-eui‘s emotional acting became even more intense, drawing admiration. Especially in episode 9, he started to shed tears at the video letter from Da-eun (Kwon Han-sol), his hometown friend who had accused him of being a witch, and he sobbed, briefly washing away the pain of the past. At the end of the drama, Mi-jeong received an apology from Da-eun and faced Dong-jin (Park Jin-young), who had devoted his whole body and soul to clearing up the misunderstanding that she was a ‘witch’. There, Mi-jeong told him the last variable that it would be okay if he didn’t leave her side even if he loved her, and they confirmed each other‘s feelings. In this way, the ending where they saved each other was enough to empathize with the two and feel touched.



Noh Jeong-eui, who captured the hearts of viewers by expressing complex emotions throughout the drama, shared her touching thoughts as she said goodbye to the drama ‘Witch’. He said, “I can’t believe I‘m saying goodbye to ’The Witch,‘ which I thought would never come, but I’m happy that it will remain a precious memory because I was able to meet the drama called ‘The Witch’ and my friend called ‘Mijung. ’ ‘The Witch’ is a truly meaningful drama to me, so I feel sad to let it go, but I think I will be able to send it off with a good heart thanks to the viewers who loved the drama and enjoyed it.” He spoke of his affection for the drama and his gratitude to the viewers without holding back. Lastly, he sent a warm greeting, saying, “I would like to thank everyone who worked hard for ‘The Witch’ from its inception to its conclusion. I will be back with a more diverse appearance this year. Please look forward to it and show me lots of love!”

Through ‘The Witch,’ Noh Jung-ui showed her growth as an actress by revealing deep emotional lines that she had not been able to show before. It raises curiosity about what kind of emotions he will show in the various works he will present in the future.

Meanwhile, Noh Jung-eui will return to the small screen on April 4th with MBC‘s new Friday-Saturday drama ‘Bunny and Brothers.’ Accordingly, attention is focused on Noh Jung-eui’s appearance as ‘Bunny’, the opposite character of Mi-jeong in ‘The Witch’. ‘Bunny and Brothers’, starring Noh Jung-eui, will first air on Saturday, April 4th at 9:50 PM.
