The Interest of Love is a melodrama about four men and women with diverse perspectives on love meeting in one place and people with varied understandings of true love understanding each other.

It is based on the same-named novel, directed by Cho Young-min and adapted by writers Lee Seo-hyun and Lee Hyun-jung. In Understanding Love, Ahn Soo-young is a character with a pretty dark side as a character who suffered from severe wounds and had to defend himself against others.

Ahn Soo-young, played by Moon Ga-young, is the fourth-year chief of the KCU Bank's Yeongpo branch. She has exceptional sales skills and is one of the best performers among the employees, thanks to her wonderful beauty and smile. In love, however, she is a person who lives without giving her heart to anyone.  
 

When asked if playing a different personality from her was tough at first, Moon Ga-young replied, "It could have been new to the public, but I think it was actually more familiar to me." "I suppose it was a work that many people might know that only we knew," my mother and relatives commented after watching the program. I, too, had that side. I hadn't had a chance to present anything before that. "I believe it was a period when I was able to display work with this message," she explained.

"At first, it was a little strange." I always smile and do things that are positive. Ga Young has never done anything like this before. It was initially more uncomfortable. I think I need to be brighter on the set. I think I practiced letting go a little more. A little different on the spot," she recalled.

3. Moon Ga-young's Activities(Actress Life)

It was a really coincidental opportunity for her to begin acting, and her uncles submitted her images to a company that hired advertising models, and when they were chosen as advertising models, they began their journey as actors.

Moon Ga-young, who started the entertainment field because her mother applied for a photo in a modeling competition, eventually acted inertly. She learned how much she enjoyed acting while she was in middle school and began acting seriously.

She worked with SM Entertainment for a long time before joining her current agency, and during that time, she worked closely with SM idols and made her face known to idol fans with her attractive beauty. In 2015, she also filmed a piece titled "EXO Next Door" with the idol group EXO.  

She has maintained a steady acting career as a principal actress, beginning as a child actor and progressing to a variety of works. She has naturally established herself as a main actor with consistent acting talents and good visuals since becoming an adult actor.

Joo Kyung played a high synchro rate in the drama "True Beauty," which was based on the webtoon "True Beauty," which ended in popularity in 2020. The visual combination with her counterpart Cha Eun-woo at the time was extremely good, and there are many positive reviews that she made good use of the original work since she acted well. She finished the drama as the lead character, which strengthened her popularity among abroad followers.

In 2023, she starred as Ahn Soo-young in the Netflix drama "The Interest of Love," which ranked fourth that week. Through acting that added empathy and depth, she skillfully depicted the psychology of complex characters and the sensations of love that did not go her way in this piece.

In addition, the production team stated, "Ahn Soo-young, who has no fantasy or anticipation of love, strikes me as the most cynical and realistic character. Realizing that no matter how hard she tries, she abandons her heart for Ha Sang-soo (Yoo Yeon-seok) and opts for Jeong Jong-hyun (Jeong Ga-ram). "Look, you hesitated over me for realistic reasons," she explained, "but the love I chose does not collapse into reality."

 

Q.Was it acting that helped you cope with your new Korean life while you were in Germany as a child? 

-In some ways, because I began working when I was young, there was less confusion and I was able to adjust fast. There were times when I wished to see my German friend and return home, but I was able to focus on it by working with a large number of people at a rapid pace. As a result, I was able to separate it into a zone where I could rest and work.

 

Q. Is there a melodramatic acting philosophy?

-Regardless of how skillfully you use your alone time, a person eventually moves with love. When I have something to put my heart into, I feel more encouraged.

 

Q. What are the distinctions and similarities between the original and the drama?

- I truly enjoyed reading the original, and the writing was entertaining as well. Those who have read the original narrative may find it amusing to see which portion will conclude with the ending, as well as the fact that it is an episode in the bank and the story of each family appears to have become richer.

 

Q. What do you think about continuing your acting career without taking a break?

-Except for the job, I can't describe myself. I can't imagine not acting because it takes up a higher part of my time than I expected. When people ask if I'm going to be an actor again, I answer yes. To be honest, I don't think I'm good at acting, but I can't think of anything else because I'm only on one road.
