The actor shared:

"I wanted my character to be more intense. There were some scenes that were disappointing, because I didn't know if I did it faithfully. But with all the antagonist characters I've played, this is the most evil role for a villain type that I have acted in."

The actor explained that the texture of Yong Joo's character in the script is something he hasn't shown yet, that's why it triggered him to accept the offer and immerse himself in fulfilling the expectations for the role.

"Ghost" has only six episodes in total, and even though he still wanted to show more of his role, he can't because of the limited time.
