Joo Jong-hyuk said "I think our team has all been dressing up for 15 times. The most difficult thing for me was cross-dressing. I dressed as a woman, but in the play, I see her as a real woman. In that part, I found out that the makeup took so long and makeup took so long, and there were so many uncomfortable parts. How to walk and what to do with your voice was the most difficult and challenging work for me personally"It took about two and a half hours to dress up, but from the outside, he was 190cm tall when he wore heels. I feel a little more pressure, and one of the most hidden things is that I have a big Adam's apple. I couldn't cover it no matter how I tried to do it."
