Reflecting on reconnecting with fans through “Queen of Tears” after a long break, he said, “I worked hard on the drama for a year, and I really wanted to do a good job conveying stories about love and family through ‘Queen of Tears.’ If viewers laughed, related to the story, and even cried while watching the drama, I think I’ve achieved my goal.

I’m grateful to the fans who sincerely loved [my character] Baek Hyun Woo and ‘Queen of Tears,’ as well as the entire ‘Queen of Tears’ team.”

On his experience filming “Queen of Tears,” he shared, “We spent about a month filming in Germany. I remember carefully planning both my workdays and my days off. On one of my days off, I visited a zoo that was much larger than I’d expected. I also clearly remember trying Schweinshaxe for the first time—it was quite a shock… if you travel to Germany, you definitely need to try it at least once. I highly recommend it.”

Regarding his criteria for choosing a project, he explained, “I look at the character’s charm and whether I’m eager to bring it to life. When I read the script for ‘Queen of Tears,’ I was drawn to Baek Hyun Woo, who is meticulous and smart but also has a hidden pitiful side. Since this was my first time playing a husband, it was a new challenge to portray the dynamics of a married couple and life with in-laws.”
