She said about strong relationships with the former/current members of After School, "With After School members, we encourage each other but also give each other strong remarks without holding back. Jung Ah unnie once told me that I was really bad at acting and if I continue to perform the same, I should stop acting altogether. However, after seeing me act this time around with the new drama, she told me I improved a lot and that I actually looked like an actress. Also, Nana sent me a coffee cart/truck to my set."

Jooyeon then talked about her recent role in drama 'Star Star Daughter-in-Law', "After playing the role for about 8 months, it really felt as if I became that character. Everyone around me called me Geumbyul (her character's name)."
