"I loved Soso very much"
In January 2024, Kaiti Konstantinou spoke about her role in "Crimes" on Happy Day, saying that "Soso helped me a lot, very clearly. It was a role that certainly characterized me. I think from "Crimes I was helped", it was a great fortune for me to play in this series and to do this particular role that I loved very much. I think it still haunts me and I am very happy because it was something that I was very pleased with and enjoyed very much. They still watch "Crimes", in fact, a viewer of the new generation who came here, begged me to speak like Soso".
"I was good with the kids, but I wasn't good as a teacher"
About the period when she was teaching, she had told ERT: "I made the decision to leave school very easily. I was good with the children, but I was not good as a teacher. I did them no good. I went with the last one in the class and the others were left behind. The first year was interesting, then I moved away, I had a pushback. I was not a good teacher, I don't have that. When you have another choice, you give up easily. The schools ended almost at the same time. Because I was very shy, I didn't go to auditions, I was shy. I didn't wait for the appointment, I waited in general, I sat. At first, an appointment came for Evros and I didn't go and then I came to Athens as a substitute for two years and it ended."
