Jung Hae In elaborated more on his character Im Su Ho. He shared, “I think he’s a figure with strong leadership. He takes good care of his family and the people around him, and he’s a character with definite beliefs.” He explained, “I focused a lot to properly express the process of his beliefs crumbling and the conflict coming from being between a situation he can’t help and the person he loves.”

The actor also talked about filming on set. He shared, “Due to the character’s nature, there was a part where he had to look deft in using a gun and showcasing action. In order to make the movements of using a gun seem natural, I always carried around the prop gun even while I was waiting on set, and I put in effort to get used to it.” He added, “I had to build my body the most [for Su Ho] out of all the characters I’ve played until now, so I was on a strict diet, and I exercised whenever I had the chance and left exercising equipment in the waiting room.”

Her character portrayal is amazing, and it’s surprising to see her understanding and absorbing the director’s directions on set. Our chemistry while acting together is also great. She’s friendly to everyone, and she’s an actress whose strength is being considerate of others.”
