00:00Finish this sentence. For you, it's not summer without. And give me something very niche.

00:06Niche? Mmm. My beauty of Joseon sunscreen. I love it. That's a good one, right? I think so.

00:16Can't go anywhere without it. Of course, this is the final season. Walk me through maybe the final

00:21table read or one of the final days on set. I don't know if we did like an official final table

00:27or, I mean, I remember the first table read we did for season three. It was really special

00:31to see everybody in the room together and to feel the energy. And we were all so excited

00:35after, you know, having a year off with the strike. And it's crazy that we're even here

00:41now. It's like, I remember filming season one and feeling like the possibility of a season

00:46two was even so far away. So it's very special to be here tonight.

00:50Do you think fans will be satisfied with whatever choice Belly makes in the end? I do.

00:56I do. Tell me why. Oh, I mean, because I think it's a really interesting story and a beautiful

01:03story. And Jenny's such a good writer. And all of the writers are such good writers. And

01:07I'm very proud of the work we did. So I think however you feel, hopefully you'll enjoy the

01:14story and be happy with it. Well, the fan base is very passionate. I know there's always some

01:21sort of discourse between characters, especially team Jeremiah versus team Conrad. Very passionate.

01:27I know the show also put out a statement ahead of releasing this season. So what do you make

01:32of all the discourse and the statement that they put out?

01:34I think the discourse is great when it's, you know, friendly and healthy, a little like healthy

01:41discourse. And usually people are really respectful and understand that it's all in good fun.

01:45But I think it is good to get a reminder that like, this is, we need to be kind to each

01:51other, especially now. And just remember that whatever happens, it'll be okay. And to keep

02:00all of the discourse friendly, you know.

02:03And finally, you know, a lot of people are wondering, could we revisit these characters in

02:09the form of a spinoff or a movie? Would you be interested in that? Or do you think that

02:13we leave this in a good place? Oh, I mean, of course, it's always, it would be nice to,

02:18you know, reunite with everyone. But that's really, that's a Jenny question. And I mean,

02:23yeah, I'd love to see like Laurel and Susanna, the younger years we were saying, which would

02:28be so fun. But yeah.
