In “Berlin – Tag & Nacht,” Hee Soo brings to life the vibrant and confident teacher Janni. Raised in a loving adoptive family, Janni has spent her whole life in Germany and feels like a German at heart. Yet, due to her Korean heritage, she sometimes feels disconnected from any one culture, leaving her feeling a bit lost at times. Despite this, her passion for life never wavers, and she exudes positivity in both her personal and professional life.
Janni is not just a teacher for career advancement; she chose her profession because she genuinely enjoys the pedagogical aspects. She finds joy in supporting her students, offering them an open ear and valuable lessons.
Her love for teaching stems from a desire to give back to her students, helping them grow. Outside of work, Janni is equally devoted to her best friend Karla, whom she’s known since elementary school, always being there for her and everyone else around her.
Her openness and loyalty are core to who Janni is. She confidently approaches new people, never shy to start conversations or make connections. In matters of the heart, Janni is open to new possibilities, though she secretly hopes to find true love.
Despite being the relationship type, she doesn’t push it and takes a laid-back approach to dating. In her circle of friends, which includes Karla and Cleo, Janni plays the mediator role, balancing Cleo’s impulsiveness and Karla’s ambitious nature. She also has a special place for Sarah and Rick, who have grown close to her as well.
