Someone told me that the elistist group makes dong man feel shit that's why he can't break through them. Because if he doesnt endlessly talk, they'll end up talking about something he can't relate.
Director Cha Young Hoon on We Are All Trying Here:
“This is not a ‘cathartic’ story where an unsuccessful director suddenly becomes a blockbuster filmmaker. Instead, it offers a small comfort to viewers reminding them that today’s failures, frustrations, and shame are not theirs alone, and that we’re all living through the same struggles. It’s a story that says: don’t dwell too much on the hardships of the day; let’s try to endure and live with a smile.”
Go Youn Jung has received 19 coffee trucks during the filming period of We Are All Trying Here alone. Filming period lasted 6 months. I’m posting this here to record and update her fans on MDL. Here’s the list:
Knet fans – 3 International fans – 1 Chanel – 2 Marithé – 1 Didier Dubot – 1 CTLBT PD – 1 CTLBT production team – 1 CTLBT male lead – 1 CTLBT supporting male lead Choi Woo Sung – 1 RP PD – 1 RP co-star Shin Si-a – 1 RP co-star Kang You-seok – 1 RP co-star Joo Won – 1 Ryu Seung-ryong – 1 MAA agency – 2
Go Youn Jung delivered a 50 million won donation to Hope Sharing for Firefighter Families on the 20th.
The funds will be used to provide equipment for active-duty firefighters and to support programs that help prevent post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
The donation was prompted by the filming of the Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) variety show "The Secret Friends Club." During the shoot, Go visited a fire station and saw firsthand the working conditions and workflow of frontline personnel.
Her agency explained, "After the filming, she recognized the need for more support in this area, and decided to donate based on the sense of responsibility and gratitude she felt toward the firefighters on site."

Character synopsis (Hwang Dong Man) - Hwang Dong Man: "Dong-man’s “pathetic yet impossible-to-hate” side is described as a “tear-stained Maltese.” Every minute and second of struggling with his own worthlessness has left emotional tear marks on his heart, yet at the same time he is an “unrestrained Maltese,” barking at those who are more successful. Beneath his seemingly bright and carefree exterior lies a wounded, vulnerable face.
Finally, his stubborn determination as a “romantic eccentric” who continues writing his own story regardless of the world’s gaze is another irresistible charm point. His odd behaviors like trying to capture falling leaves or climbing a neighborhood hill to shout his own name are actually Dong-man’s romantic resistance against sinking into the swamp of worthlessness.
The same goes for his insistence on wearing a leather coat belonging to a World War II veteran every day. Even though the weight of reality exhausts him within just ten minutes, he still raises the collar in the end. This vividly shows his identity as a romantic eccentric trying to prove his own value."
Character synopsis (Byeon Eun Ah) - Go Youn Jung, known for captivating audiences with immersive performances that dominate the atmosphere of every project she appears in, joins the drama and adds further strength to the cast. She introduces a new side of herself as Byun Eun Ah, a character with a fresh face and a sharp gaze behind an innocent appearance.
Byun Eun Ah is a producer at the film company Choi Film and is known in the industry by the intense nickname “Axe.” The name comes from her sharp scenario reviews that feel like an axe striking someone on the head instantly waking them up. Even in front of a sly company representative, she never backs down and shows strong determination. However, behind that sharp edge lies a fragile sense of lack and anxiety she cannot reveal to anyone. In particular, her sudden, unexpected nosebleeds hint at a hidden story within her, becoming a point that will spark viewers’ curiosity.
The newly released images show Go Youn Jung approaching the character with a simple, understated visual style. Her plain outfit reflecting the realistic daily life of a film producer and her bare, makeup-free face raise expectations for another stage of her acting growth. Her seemingly expressionless yet sharply gleaming eyes capture the keen insight of the “Axe PD,” someone who observes the world with precision, while also transparently revealing the complex emotions hidden beneath. This is why anticipation is growing for what may become another career-defining role for Go Youn Jung.
The production team said, “Go Youn Jung is stably portraying the character’s complex sides while anchoring the center of the drama,” adding, “Her delicate acting, which deeply captures the character’s inner world, will leave a lasting impression on viewers.”

"Recognised by TIME Magazine as one of its Top 10 K-dramas of the year, Resident Playbook claims the No. 6 spot as a heartfelt and poignant spin-off of the beloved Hospital Playlist. The drama follows four rookie residents navigating the high-stakes chaos of an under-staffed OB-GYN department, weaving personal growth with the reality of Korea’s birthrate crisis. Led by Go Youn Jung's compelling portrayal of the guarded Oh Yi Young alongside a standout ensemble featuring Shin Sia, Kang You Seok, and Han Ye Ji, the series shines through its warmth and chemistry. From nostalgic cameos and thoughtful world-building to the viral HI-BOYZ moment on M Countdown, Resident Playbook proves that the quietest stories often have the biggest hearts." https://time.com/7340988/best-k-dramas-2025/

Go Youn Jung improvised picking up a cat toy to show Mu Hee feeling comforted by Ho Jin’s words.
Mu Hee dancing while suggesting they see the aurora was not in the script but Go Youn Jung’s idea.
Go Youn Jung personally chose Dorami’s affectionate way of saying “honey”."
