Jo Yoon-hee plays Bo-eum, a talented but blind Gisaeng. She is Hwan-hee's (Yoo Seung-ho) stepsister and the greatest Gisaeng of the Joseon. She doesn't easily show her thoughts but she would do anything for Hwan-hee.

She is fancy on the outside but deep down, she's sad and complicated. Jo Yoon-he understood this very well and also pulled of the 'distant blind-look' very well.

About being part of this movie, Jo Yoon-hee said, "It's something I haven't tried before but I was attracted to the role".

For the movie, she put emphasis on certain parts. "To show that I am blind, I visited schools for the blind and practiced with footages. I tried my best to put my own colors in the role like the producer asked for".
