Kim Tae Ri’s Revelation
Kim Tae Ri recently expressed her regret about not putting more effort into her character, Na Hee Do, in the drama by saying:

Storyline of Twenty-Five, Twenty-One
Though she is unaware that she was once the source of Ko Yurim’s intense desire to win, Na Hee Do wants to be her opponent. She is happy, full of feelings, and she never stops pushing herself. She dreams of the day she will stand on a podium and wear a medal around her neck. She meets Baek Yi Jin, a boy who gives her the confidence to look at life more meaningfully and who also makes her feel good about herself.
After South Korea’s 1998 economic crisis, Baek Yi Jin moves to a new location and splits from his family. He hopes to work as a successful reporter and TV news anchor someday. He meets a girl who is very different from him and full of hope, and they inevitably fall in love. But gradually, they wander away as life throws them a curveball full of changes and devastating events.
They were once a happy, carefree couple, but as they get older, their different priorities drive them apart. The story, which is told from the perspective of Na Hee Do’s daughter, is full of amazing camera work that depicts the world of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
