On February 23rd, Jessica’s first drama, “Wild Romance”, came to an end. Jessica appeared in ten out of sixteen episodes as Kang Jonghee, a painter who bites people she cares about, holds her liquor, loves her cat, and is even bipolar. Despite intense overseas schedules in New York, Paris and Bangkok, she delivered solid performances in each episode, exceeding expectations for her first time acting.
Though it had an overall straightforward plot, “Wild Romance” featured unpredictable, and often unbelievable, twists and turns that gave Jessica many chances to show off her acting talents. Fans were especially delighted, and sometimes horrified, to see Jessica act in a variety of scenes involving holding a baby, having a seizure, washing a cat, painting, and even kissing. Not known for her cooking skills, one of Jessica’s most challenging acting scenes came in episode twelve, where her character cooks a meal. After watching her act in these different situations, many viewers complimented Jessica on her ability to portray both a light and dark side to her character.
Jessica also sat down for several interviews about “Wild Romance”, one of which she described the drama as a learning experience and also thanked her seniors Lee Dongwook and Lee Siyoung. Having proven that she can adapt to performing in a variety of scenes while juggling activities with Girls’ Generation, Jessica will hopefully soon be able to apply what she has learned from “Wild Romance” in future dramas. Until then, we will look forward to Jessica’s return to the Korean drama scene.

Jess so awesome. Hope to see her in more upcoming dramas :DD Jess Fighting !
I believe that Jessica will appear in another drama where she will be the main protagonist character and has a happy ending
Looking forward to a drama where Jessica will be the main lead.
EXPLOSIVE cant wait till she comes bk to the drama seen…was so excited over the trailer for the last ep :P wonder really wat went down.. :) looking forward to watching the subbed version…im sure she didnt disappoint ^^ and im looking forward to the rest of the girls activities too!
wow. so proud of my bias! jessica’s acting ,down. two girls to go.. XD can’t wait to see yuri and yoona’s series :)
For the first time in acting, she’s not that bad. I love seeing her in Wild Romance.
Well of course because she’s Jessica XD
Well done Jessica. You’ve tried your best ^^
Can I watch you and Hyomin acted together as siblings? That would be cool *O*
And thanks Soshified staff for subbing Wild Romance :)
Love you so much!
Congrats Sica, your acting was awesome ;)
jessica’s kissing cut looks awkward.. it seems that the two of them don’t know how to kiss.. hahaha..
but it exhibited jessica’s innocence so it’s still cute.. hehehehe :) love love jessica..
watched it on yt (only jessica’s cut of course). arhh.. i don’t understand korean.
that was the last of Kang Jonghee.
Jessica is a good actress, especially sad scenes.
Hope to see more of actress Sica in the future!
Lol. Jonghee’s description is hilarious. :)) Will be watching the last two eps this weekend.
A very superb performance by Sica. :D Yes, Sones are biased, but what can we do?
Looking forward to more dramas for Sica. Congrats on finishing this one.

Add Oil! Jessica, u can make it!

Yeah Jessica its great to see different sides of your talent this was one of my favorite experiances watching you grow as a actress was amazing!
WELL DONE JESSICA <3
I am so proud of her and though I only saw he first appearance, I can gather by fans reactions that she has done WONDERFUL. I hope that these episodes – pr at least cuts of them – will be subbed so that I can watch her in her full glory.
She did great, and I just hope to see her soon in another drama.
we will miss Kang Jong Hee…. :(
Her acting wasn’t that bad for her debut :)
Can someone tell me what the ending was? I didn’t understand it since I watched only Jessica’s cuts xD
I will miss Kang Jong Hee. Jessica did great in her first ever attempt consider how busy she was and how short of amount of time she received for the acting training. Hopefully in the near future we will get to see Jessica to act again, as a lead role that time.
I AM SO PROUD OF WOORI SICA!
when you put everything into perspective…
her very busy schedule outside of the drama…
the constant traveling…this being her first
attempt at acting…she did very, very well. i
think this was a great start for her. she didn’t
have an insignificant role, so she was allowed
to develop. she was also able to perform
the entire spectrum of acting. she wasn’t
restricted to being nice or quiet or plain, her
character allowed her to go crazy, be nice,
be mean, be physically expressive. it was a
great starting point for jessica’s acting career!!!
