In 1995, Lee Jung-hyun, who was a first-year student at Myeongdeok Girls' High School in Seoul at the time, was selected as the main character among three thousand candidates.
For this film, Lee Jung-hyun won Best New Actress at the Daejong Film Festival and Blue Dragon Film Awards.
Lee Jung-hyun was 15 years old during filming and her full nude scenes became a social controversy at the time in South Korea.
At the time the actress said, "It's natural as an actor to work hard to do well because film is an art and nude exposure is a scene of that art."
This film was a difficult job for 15-years old Lee Jung-hyun, who did not know acting. Director Jang Sun-woo was furious on the first day of shooting. "At first I wasn't good at acting, so the director threw away the script and stopped shooting. I took it myself and I cried for a long time in the dormitory. Then I woke up. 'Then I have to live like a crazy child,' I thought. Because if I can't act, I simply have no choice but to become that kind of person." So she began wandering around the neighborhood for three or four hours before the shoots. People in the neighborhood thought she was a really crazy child and took her home to wash and feed her. "There was no line between everyday life and acting. It was an ignorant approach. (laughs). The director and Sul Kyung-gu looked at me that way and said, 'Tomorrow is the last shoot, but what if she goes crazy even after she's done?'"
