"I tried to show the cynical and overbearing nature of 'Goo Won' has without telling, so what I did was to portray it in a controlled manner in every sequence.", he said.
And for his looks, JUNHO added, "I had been working out furiously."
He explained that he wanted to show himself perfectly fitted since the character is always wearing the suit.
"The character is a rich born who always wears a three-piece suit. I worked hard to ensure that the viewers could feel the firm body throughout the outfit."
