Actress Lee Yo-won managed to take off the stern image of "Queen Seon-deok" and transformed into a silly character. In the first episode of SBS drama "49 Days" Lee Yo-won played a dark character but in the second episode, after the soul of Ji-hyun went into her she plays a more lively and positive character. Especially in the scenes where she re-received her mission to come alive again by 'scheduler' Jeong Il-woo and in the restaurant, she completely threw off the image of "Queen Seon-deok" and became more tough and appetizing.
Lee Yo-won stars as Song Yi-kyung in this drama. She expressed her reason for choosing this drama, "There were a lot of choices but I chose this because the idea of playing two roles seemed fun" She said, "I am curious how I am going to portray and express these two characters, Song Yi-kyung and Sin Ji-hyun. I will work hard to express their different personalities well". She explained the drama, "49 Days" will make us think again about the way we live and help us find happiness". For actor Jo Hyeon-jae, who is acting as her love interest, this will be the first project since his discharge from the army.
