She said that she doesn’t yet have a specific location in mind when asked where she would travel to for a vacation in the Philippines. And if she would be given a chance to take a break, she wants to do nothing, lie on the sand, look at the sky, get on a boat, and get onto the water, and really do nothing because she really need a break right now.

With her character in Squid Game, Kang Saebyeok, the idea that Saebyeok had to travel to other country where she had not grown up and work to support herself was the experience that she considered to be more relatable.

She currently has a lot of projects, including the Netflix Series ‘Chicken Gangjeong,’ the Hollywood film ‘The Governesses,’ and the Apple Series ‘Disclaimer.’

When we asked her on how it feels to be chosen to be a promoter of IAM Worldwide, she said that her acting career took off following the breakthrough and success of ‘Squid Game.’

Hoyeon’s popularity on social media grew rapidly, wherein she eventually became the most followed Korean actress on Instagram. She even said that the majority of her followers are Filipinos and that she would dearly love to visit the country to meet them all.
