The actresses behind Koo Hye Sun in the poster are Cook Ji Yeon, Min Young Won, and Jang Ja Yeon.

In the caption, Koo Hye Sun wrote, "The unnie who used to fill my hands with hand warmers. The unnie that I regret I don't have a single photo with. Rest peacefully in heaven, beautiful person."

While Koo Hye Sun played the female lead 'Geum Jan-di', Jang Ja Yeon played one of the three "mean girls" named 'Sunny'.

Jang Ja Yeon took her own life in March 2009, leaving behind her final letter revealing that she had been forced to sexually escort government officials and business/media conglomerate owners.

At the time, the investigation into her death did not unveil the names in her letter, and only indicted her agency CEO and her manager.
