"Since this drama is a sentimental melodrama genre, we decided that it is more important to show the relationship and the harmony between the lead actors. Therefore, we decided that we will be pre-recording rather than doing the production presentation without Jang Ki Yong."
All Kpop reported that drama production presentations are usually held on the day of the show's first broadcast. However, because of Jang Ki Yong's situation, all cast members agreed to pre-record the presentation to sit down together and discuss the drama on August 23, which is earlier than the original schedule
