The program aired from May to July 2016. Kim had played the lead role of Yeon-hee, a cursed princess who falls in love with Heo Jun, a scholar who tries to lift the curse.

“‘Mirror of the Witch’ is about teen romance. I don’t have much experience in romance, so I drew on romance scenes that I have seen in web cartoons. I am a fan of web cartoons and have read many,” said the 16-year-old actress.

Yoon Shi-yoon, the actor who played Heo Jun, is 14 years older, but Kim said she did not feel the age difference when interacting with him.

“He is very playful and funny, so I didn’t feel the age gap so much,” said Kim.

The drama did not feature any kissing scenes.

“‘Mirror of the Witch’ is about pure and young love. So I think that the love between Yeon-hee and Heo Jun was conveyed to the viewers even without a kiss scene,” said Kim.
