In an interview released on June 14th actress Choi Ri opened up about wearing a school uniform on film for the last time.

The conflict of the movie centers around a vice principal played by Kim Seo-hyung and a problem student played by Kim Hyun-soo, where supernatural influences may be involved.

With her twenty-sixth birthday coming up later this month, Choi Ri does not expect to do another project where she plays a student. But from her debut in "Spirits' Homecoming" back in 2016 where she played a comfort woman under the purview of the Imperial Japanese Army, she has long been known for a youthful disposition. Last year's "Birthcare Center" marked a noteworthy shift for the actress as she an online shopping mall CEO and unmarried mother.

Choi Ri described her performance in "Whispering Corridors 6: The Humming" as being filled with ups and downs. Choi Ri said she focused on smiling and sincere emotions, trying her best to appear lovely. This worked to emphasize the scarier scenes, where Choi Ri claims to have been very seriously scared. Choi Ri also talked about researching the role through searching out visual blogs on TikTok and YouTube and consulting accordingly.

Prior to this role Choi Ri last appeared as a student in "Keys to the Heart" back in 2017. Though insisting this would be her last student role, Choi Ri still claimed to have enjoyed herself. Choi Ri said that she filmed "Whispering Corridors 6: The Humming" with a similar bubbly disposition as she did with "Keys to the Heart" but that she has since dropped it. Choi Ri has no confirmed upcoming projects but has expressed an interest in traditional Korean dress for her next role.
