Back in December 2023,?So-hee herself had shared her two cents on sustaining on-set?injuries. She said,?"When it comes to injuries, it's not just me who gets hurt during action scenes; the stunt team, as well as all the actors, experience injuries. It's actually considered fortunate if I don't get hurt, but it's practically impossible not to sustain at least minor injuries. The environment is unlike any other, and regardless of how well I prepare, once we start filming, everyone works with absolute dedication."
