Eugene said, "I took a 5-year break before I joined 'The Penthouse'. I was worried about starting again as five years is not a short time."
She continued, "So, I needed some time to think whether I wanted to join 'The Penthouse'. Oh Yoon-hee was such a wild, emotional and mad character as well. I wasn't sure if I could pull it off well."
She went on, "But everybody around me continuously told me that I would be able to pull it off. They gave me courage."

Eugene said, "I believed it was important for me to earn sympathy from our viewers with my character. If they couldn't sympathize with her, I felt like I would feel uncomfortable about it. I did my best to understand her."
She resumed, "Before I joined, our writer told me that she didn't want Oh Yoon-hee to be acted by someone so obvious. She encouraged me a lot."
While filming, I asked her many questions about Oh Yoon-hee. Then at one point, she told me that I knew Oh Yoon-hee better, so there was no need for me to ask her anymore. She believes in me."
