On the 15th of October, Joo Won showed up at a Cafe in Seoul, Gangnam and sat down for an round-table interview with reporters. "This time's drama caused me a lot of muscle aches." he expressed humorously.
Joo Won's character required a unique posture in this drama, from his neck to his shoulders and even his waist. All of his body posture looked peculiar, even his style of walking was different from a normal person's. "Perhaps it is because of (being in those postures for) long periods of time, my muscles constantly feels painful. Actually now my sitting posture and walking style still have Shi On's shadow, I haven't been able to completely get rid of the habit.".
