In the Genie TV original drama Not Others, Kim Hye Eun portrays the role of Kim Mi Jung, a one-of-a-kind friend to Kim Eun Mi (played by Jeon Hye Jin) and a second mother to Jin Hee (played by Choi Soo Young). She possesses infinite charisma and has been receiving enthusiastic support from the viewers.
Mi Jung is a loyal and reliable figure who saved Eun Mi from past domestic violence and school bullying. Before graduating high school, Eun Mi became a single mother to Jin Hee, and Mi Jung stood by her side unconditionally. She is a great friend and a protective presence that Eun Mi and Jin Hee can't do without. Kim Hye Eun portrays this captivating elder sister-like friend with delicate acting, conveying the meaning of another family bond.

From her first appearance, Mi Jung's extraordinary friendship with Eun Mi and her deep and warm affection for Jin Hee has shown her strong presence. As the story unfolds, her actions become even more compelling. When Jin Hong (played by Ahn Jae Wook), Jin Hee's biological father, appears and disrupts Eun Mi's life, Mi Jung exudes a mad, intense gaze that dominates the atmosphere. While she expressed suppressed anger calmly in the past, this time, she unleashes her girl crush power to seek long-awaited revenge, providing a refreshing and enjoyable spectacle that draws attention.

In particular, when she sees Eun Mi still troubled by Jin Hong and yearning to date him again, Mi Jung firmly advises her sharply, displaying the ideal image of the friend everyone desires.

Kim Hye Eun in Not Others portrays a relatable and charming master of deception, showcasing an independent and stylish woman. As an irresistible character that viewers can't help but love, she elevates the immersion in the drama. Her boundless acting talent realistically brings her character to life, evoking empathy. As a result, there are high expectations about how she will continue to capture the audience's hearts.
