Kim Hye Soo keeps a list of unknown actors including their ages and phone numbers. She says, "I write down everything I see about them. I'm not a casting director but I would remember a certain artist and when I see a project that suits them, I recommend it to the actor. There are even actors over the age of 70. When there's an actor who gets a spotlight and you're the only one who remembers the actor's unknown days, you tend to think, "Oh? I've seen the actor before and I really liked them." It's the same for me. I like it the most when I'm with good actors."
