"I hope that by watching our drama, people will be comforted by the idea that 'It's not just me; everyone is living like that.' I was especially drawn to 'Doctor Slump' because it felt so human."

As mentioned, the series is his reunion project with Park Shin Hye after 11 years, as both stars first worked together in "The Heirs." He expressed how "impressed" he is with how his co-star "suddenly whipped out emotions as if she'd pressed a button," adding that he "learned a lot" just by watching Park Shin Hye.
