The weather conditions were so cold, none like she had ever experienced before.
“Korea’s cold too, but it was my first time experiencing such an intensely cold temperature.” — Hong Jin Young
She was “forced” to go on a diet because they didn’t have enough to eat.
“I starved too much. I was forced to be on a diet. I wasn’t on a diet because of my upcoming comeback, but I was forced to be on a diet. We didn’t have a lot to eat so my stomach didn’t feel well and it hurt. My whole body ached.” — Hong Jin Young
Everything combined made for a difficult time as Hong Jin Young’s signature bubbling energy was completely deflated by the end of the shoot.
“I ran out of energy, and you could say I had a mental breakdown. I’ve never had a mental breakdown while filming before but I felt devastated like OTL.” — Hong Jin Young
But at the end of the day, Hong Jin Young said she enjoyed her experience on the show thanks to the unforgettable memories.
“I had a really hard time, but I also made a lot of memories. It was extremely difficult but I enjoyed it.” — Hong Jin Young
