In the most recent episode of the variety show You Quiz On the Block, number 160 in the overall order, actress Han Ji-min made an appearance, discussing among other things her role in "Our Blues" as a rookie Jeju diving woman. Comedians Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho acted as the emcees, with the theme being skills worth stealing.

It was with "Dae Jang Geum" in 2007 that Han Ji-min first had her chance to see serious older actors up close. At that time, Han Ji-min began to learn serious proper acting. But the most emotional moment for Han Ji-min in "Our Blues" was not any of her own, but rather that of the sister of her charactered, who was played Jeong Eun-hye. Han Ji-min claimed that even before the camera was set she started crying, thinking of how Jeong Eun-hye herself lived a life not too different from her character.

Thinking about how a person who struggles to face people could manage to paint portraits of forty thousand of them thus overwhelmed Han Ji-min. Apparently, this was also Han Ji-min's last scene to film at all, so she was also left thinking throughout that time about the entire production to date, wondering how Jeong Eun-hye could adjust to the filming process as a disabled person. Han Ji-min credited the love of all the cast and crew to the drama being able to end so splendidly.

Later on, Yoo Jae-suk asked Han Ji-min if she was happy these days. Han Ji-min replied that she tends to think not in terms of personal happiness but in terms of personal gratitude. "Our Blues" ended on June 12th with ratings of 14.597%. Han Ji-min will next appear in the science fiction drama "Yonder" on TVING.
