The main trailer, which was released together, adds interest to Kang Joon-woo's unpredictable and laugh-out-bursts during his sudden vacation, which he claimed to be on the road with nothing in a distant foreign land. Kang Jun-woo, who struggles to eat, drink, and survive in an honest way that cannot be found in the Asian Prince, is completed in the form of Lee Kwang-soo himself, the likability of all, raising expectations even more.

The unique characters surrounding Kang Joon-woo also raise the interest of the work to the fullest. In addition to the bickering chemistry with best friend and manager Jeong Han-cheol (Eum Moon-seok), rising star Cha Do-hoon (Kang Ha-neul) and Korean master director Lee Won-seok (Yoo Jae-myung) add vitality to the play. On top of that, Tao (Hwangha), who is involved in an unexpected relationship while on vacation alone, and Han Sang-sa (Jo Woo-jin), who puts them in danger, appear, and the unpredictable chaos unfolds, further raising the sense of immersion in the play.

Lee Kwang-soo, who has proven his broad acting spectrum through his new aspects in his unconventional acting transformation that gave him the Best Supporting Actor award at the 4th Blue Dragon Series Awards, and his upcoming film, Sculpture City, is expected to show a character that only he can pull off in this work.

In particular, it is expected that director Kim Sung-hoon and Lee Kwang-soo, who reunited after 12 years since 'My Little Hero', will provide a more upgraded survival comedy than their previous work with a laugh-guaranteed combination.
