I feel sorry about viewers feeling uncomfortable.” “There were critical articles and comments coming up every day, and my heart ached as I worried that the young cast might be hurt because of me.” She added, “Thankfully, we were able to wrap up season one well, so that fact alone makes me very happy. “Since the drama was produced before it aired, we couldn’t even edit the script while it was airing,” said Kim Soon Ok. In addition to being planned for more than season, “The Penthouse” was also produced before its premiere. “That’s why I felt tense and nervous every day, wondering, ‘Will we be able to finish the drama?'” Kim Soon Ok shared, “Since the overall outline of the synopsis didn’t change, some people remarked or criticized it by saying, ‘It’s too sensational and strong,'” she said. “However, when it was decided that it would air on a public broadcast network, there were many restrictions, and so a few characters disappeared or were edited,” she said. She therefore aimed to portray many potentially uncomfortable topics she had wanted to deal with in an unconventional and honest way, including issues surrounding the gap between the rich and poor, the harmful consequences of school violence, issues of unfairness in education, the creation of different classes because of real estate, and domestic violence. She went on to say that she had written the drama with the mindset that it could be her last project. In the interview, Kim Soon Ok explained that she had first planned out the project with the idea of it being an original show with seasons on an OTT (over-the-top) online video service. SBS’s “The Penthouse” is set in a 100-floor luxury penthouse apartment, and the first season featured three women at the heart of the tale: the “queen” of the penthouse Shim Soo Ryeon ( Lee Ji Ah), the “prima donna” Cheon Seo Jin ( Kim So Yeon) who will stop at nothing to get what she wants, and Oh Yoon Hee ( Eugene) who will do anything it takes to get into the world of high society. “ The Penthouse” writer Kim Soon Ok spoke about the hit show in an interview with Sports Chosun!
