Ki-jung ā the facts are sheās the baby in the family, and she does sometimes come off as the most adventurous and progressive, but also very realistic out of the four Kim family members. Ā But in reality, sheās very saddening, sometimes, and very heart-aching, because the amount of tests and exams, and the cuts that she didnāt make.Ā She seems like someone whoād never complain about it: Her only outlet was the little pouch that she hid on top of the toilet, with the cigarette case and the money. Ā But she is definitely someone who would never talk to other people about her problems, and in that sense thatās why it was heartbreaking, because she felt that her only outlet was that cigarette box and nothing else.Ā Ā But when Ki-jung starts going to the rich house, and takes on the role of Jessica, it was very cathartic as someone who was playing that role, because she was finally able to utilise every single skill that she had, and finally was able to use the tools that sheās been wanting to, but was never given the platform to do so.Ā
