On the September 14th episode of JTBC's 'Talk Hero', she talked about how she spent her time when she took a hiatus. Yewon suffered a lot of criticism after footage of her speaking informally to Lee Tae Im during filming for�MBC's 'Tutoring Across Generations'�arose last year, and she took time away from the spotlight.

She said, "I have experience keeping my mouth closed. When I had to spend time at home, I purposely made work for myself. For dental work that could've been done in one day, I separated my appointments into multiple days."

Yewon also explained how she avoided hanging out with friends, saying,�"When my friends asked me what I was doing, I could just use the dentist as an excuse to not go out."
