Actress Kang Hye Jung (36) spilled the beans on how she avoided being called an "old person" on her latest drama set, for KBS2's 'Jugglers'. 

In 'Jugglers', which wrapped up this past January 23, Kang Hye Jung played a woman who spent 15 years as a stay-at-home wife, before being hired as the new secretary of a sports business company president. She worked alongside Choi Daniel, Baek Jin Hee, Lee Won Geun, and more. About the drama set, Kang Hye Jung said, 'When I first went in for filming, I realized that most of the actors were 9-10 years younger than me. It seemed like I would be hearing the words 'old person' if I wasn't careful, so I was very on guard. I took strict measures to make sure I didn't seem old."

She continued, "I blatantly listened to TWICE and Red Velvet songs, acting like I was young. But the other actors were more mature than I expected, so we got along well without feeling the age gaps."
