During the press conference for the new MBC drama 'Lucky Romance', Hwang Jung Eum revealed why she wanted to quickly resume working after marriage. 

Hwang Jung Eum said, "Marriage is marriage, and work is work." She then explained,  "I wanted to quickly make a comeback, so I was searching for work. I really wanted to do romance. At the time, I was so into 'Descendants of the Sun' that it made me want to act."
