Director Kim Jong Gwan also expressed how he felt during filming. He said that he felt pressured to take on a remake because the original film and novel were excellent. He also added that despite the feeling of pressure, he decided to take on the project because he fell in love with the novel as soon as he read it. Also, the film's point of view on people and its deep sense of humanity warms his heart.

Han Ji Min then added that she also felt pressured as well. She also made sure to work hard during the taping so she could bring her own version of Josée to the Korean adaptation. Since her character is a person with a disability, she had to make certain preparations. She said that she kept a wheelchair in her home and tried to use it daily so she'd get used to it.
