Career

Moreover, in the tvN drama The Killer's Shopping List, Jo delivered a realistic and emotionally compelling performance as Kwon Bo-yeon, a daycare teacher struggling with depression. [5]

Jo's portrayal of the "love stealer" character has left a lasting impression on viewers, showcasing her ability to bring depth and nuance to even supporting roles. [5]
