Jo Jung-seok said about his melodrama chemistry with Shin Se-kyung, "It was so good. I had told people around me for a long time that I really wanted to work with an actress named Shin Se-kyung. I was so happy when I heard that we were working together, but when we actually tried it, our chemistry was so good that it was almost nagging. “He said.
Shin Se-kyung said, "In the beginning, when Hee-su is in the process of falling in love, there are some light and soft scenes. In the mid-to-late half, the emotional conflict intensifies. I had a lot of worries while acting, but senior Jo Jung-seok was so considerate and respectful on set. “I was able to focus only on acting. I had a lot of fun on the way to the filming set. I was confident that I would be able to finish the film happily with my senior,” he said.
