In the still, Lee Sung-min adds tension by expressing Sang-ho Jeong, who faces a crisis, with an expression that conveys both concern and charisma.

Director Kim Seong-su said, "Lee Seong-min acts accurately as if he were measuring it with a ruler. It is clear and fitting, and I think he is one of the best actors in Korea. When I look at actor Lee Seong-min, who always expresses himself excellently on set, I feel as if I have great direction. “I feel like he’s a good director,” he praised.

Actor Lee Seong-min said, "This is my first work with director Kim Seong-soo, but I love the director's previous works and always wanted to work with him. I could feel the dignity of a master craftsman at the filming site, and it was always a feeling of excitement and admiration."

The movie ‘Spring in Seoul’ is scheduled to be released on November 22nd.
