It seems that Lee Kang and Park Dal-i closely watched each other's performances in that their souls changed. Kang Tae-oh said "I talked a lot during rehearsals on the spot and asked for a lot of advice. I caught Sejeong's unique habits and facial expressions unconsciously coming out. Kim Se-jung has an energy bar-like appearance, but it is still intact for Dal. I tried to take it well even when my soul changed."

Kim Se-jung said, `I thought the direction of expressing their characters was the same. I got a lot of help while talking to each other about the appearance. Isn't there a drama that's famous for playing two roles. I asked Ha Ji-won. He said it was important to share a lot of breathing with the other actor. He told the story that he asked Ha Ji-won of 'Secret Garden', famous for his soul-changing romance comedy.

As for breathing, Kang Tae-oh "I think that such energy, such as breathing, chemistry, and good relationships with the other person, is well contained and influenced in the play. It was good again this time. So I'm looking forward to it from the perspective of the viewers watching the show."

Kim Se-jeong also "I feel the same way. I think the triple beat is important when taking a loco. The first is the atmosphere of the scene. I always laughed to the point of giggling. In particular, it was fun to make jokes and greetings with Tae-oh. The second is how to save Roconi and comedy. Comedy has to be well timed. When I try to make you laugh, you do it well on your own. Third, I think eyes are really important. Among many actors, I think he has really good eyes. After looking at my brother's eyes, romance is made well, he boasted his chemistry.

Hong Soo-joo, who will add tension to the play as Kim Woo-hee, who is the most beautiful and wise person in Joseon but is destined to live like a family doll, always enters half tension and half excitement when working on a work, rather than being the first historical drama. I trusted the producer and went to shoot. The historical drama was so interesting."

Jin-gu plays Kim Han-chul, an absolute power and Kim Woo-hee's father, called the seated figure above the statue. In collaborating with Hong Soo-joo, there was no scene where the father and the daughter came out together than I thought. But I think it came out well because it had to come out in a dry atmosphere. Of course, we were close off-camera."

Expectations are also high for this film, as MBC historical dramas such as `'Clothes sleeves, red tips', 'Geumhonryeong', 'Lovers', and 'Flowers blooming at night' have been popular every time. Producer Lee "We are not an authentic historical drama. You described it as like a comprehensive gift set, but there are actually fantasy, romance, comedy, political discord, conflict, and deep melodrama. I think it will be a different historical drama. There are episodes that can be taken lightly, and there are episodes that are deeply sad. He pointed out the difference from other historical dramas.

At the same time, he confessed his burden honestly. This PD is "It's burdensome to be honest. He always writes expectations for MBC historical dramas in his articles, and every time I read it, I think 'I hope it goes well'. I made a lot of efforts to die for this work, and I caused a lot of distress to the people here and the field staff. I hope the results will be good enough to relieve the burden."

As a numerical goal "I'm going to die of the burden to be honest. Rather than making the work fun, I think the viewers like it and the timing is right to get a good rating. I think results and grades should be humbly received. As far as I could, I poured everything into it. If I get double-digit ratings, I'll buy 100 cups of coffee at MBC's main gate," he said emphatically.

Then Kang Tae-oh said "Then I'll add another 100 cups", and Lee Shin-young and Jin-gu also promised to add 300 cups. When Kim Se-jung said, "I'll share coffee with you in a beautiful hanbok." Kang Tae-oh said, "I think Yulmu tea and oriental medicine tea are better than coffee."I summarized my pledge.
