She recently told Sports Chosun in an interview, "I smoke but if there is someone who would like to try, I would stop that person".

"Smoking is not good in many ways. I really want to stop smoking next year".

"The reason I started smoking was because of writer Kim Su-hyun" she said "I was told that my voice was too thin to be an actress so I started smoking to make it sound thicker and haven't been able to stop since".

Kim Hae-sook said, "I am the warm loving mother style so I know smoking doesn't go along with the image. I will quit next year. She acts along with Yoo Hae-jin in the movie "Mama" coming on the 1st. She plays the naïve mother who whines to her son about wanting to find his first love.
