At the press conference on August 17 at Seoul Lotte Cinema World Tower, she stated, "This manga is incredibly popular in Japan and sold over 10,000,000 copies. I myself bought a copy of the series at a bookstore and read all ten books. It was so good. If you ask someone in Japan, there is no one who wouldn't know [this manga], so when I got an offer [to star in the live action film], I wholeheartedly agreed."
Jiyoung added, "I played the role of Irina Jelavic who carries out the mission with the students. It was my first time playing a sexy role, and because I was an assassin, I was a bit overwhelmed. I still had fun shooting [the movie]."
Though the movie premiered back in March, it will hit the big screen in Korea this coming August 27.
