Actress Jung Ryeo Won opened up about being a loner during her school days in Australia.
On the first episode of OnStyle's 'How is it Having Lived it?' on September 15, Jung Ryeo Won discussed what life was like after her family immigrated to Australia. After seeing some licorice at a house in Amsterdam, Jung Ryeo Won commented, "If you eat this, your jaw will give out. I received a lot of it when I was a loner in Australia. I didn't speak English very well, but after receiving licorice from kids, I knew they didn't want to get along with me."
She continued, "Rather than being a loner, it was closer to racism. It was a time when there weren't many Asians in Australia. They were fascinated, so they kept making fun of me. If they do that now, they get in trouble."
