He also brought laughter to the press conference as he struggled to make the heart pose! This clip alone garnered over a million views online.

This new drama is receiving much attention as it is his first project after completing his military service. His last project was SBS’s Now We Are Breaking Up, from 2022.

Looking back at my twenties, I was really busy. Through my year and a half of military service, I took a break for the first time, and it was something I really needed. I experienced a sense of peace working on a drama after finishing my military service.

When asked about the difference between before and after the military, he stated, “Before, I was always felt anxious, like I was being chased by something, but for this drama, I am taking things slow. It’s the first time I felt what peace of mind is like.”

He also revealed the reason for choosing this specific drama for his return to the industry.

The script was fun. Having family members with a hero was interesting. I always wanted to show an unexpected image when I returned to acting.
