When asked if she worries about shedding her pure and innocent image, she said, "Fifteen years is enough of that image; it's time to break with it".

Choi added that she found more fans after she appeared in the KBS2TV show "Happy Sunday: One Night Two Days". "It seemed fans loved the cheerful, easygoing side I showed in the program. They'd assumed I was a coy and reticent type, which was my usual image".

Based on Japanese TV drama "The Battle of Mr. and Mrs. Sasaki", "Can't Lose" focuses on the fights between a couple of feisty lawyers.
