Everyone ŌĆō staff, director, actors including myself ŌĆō have put our souls into it.ŌĆØ Joy plays Ahn Ja Young, a policewoman and a town insider. ŌĆ£The character only resembled me 50%. IŌĆÖm quite introverted, but I brighten up a lot while shooting the drama. Now, IŌĆÖm 100% like her,ŌĆØ she commented. ŌĆ£I think of myself as an innocent, pure person, but Ja Young is many times more so. SheŌĆÖs like clear glass. She looks like sheŌĆÖll shatter easily, but actually, sheŌĆÖs quite solid and cool.ŌĆØ What was it like working with two younger actors? ŌĆ£I even cut my bangs so I wouldnŌĆÖt look older,ŌĆØ she jokingly answered. ŌĆ£They both treated me so nicely. And theyŌĆÖre both really handsome. I loved the working environment.ŌĆØ Joy chose ŌĆ£the natural, comfortable story and the beautiful sceneryŌĆØ as the key charm of Once Upon a Small Town. ŌĆ£The story of unfabricated people is the biggest charm,ŌĆØ she explained. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre living in a forest made of buildings.
