Ji Chang-Wook embarks on this project fresh after the success of his crime-action thriller The Worst of Evil. He has returned to a genre he’s well-known for, having previously appeared in many other romcoms, including Suspicious Partner, Lovestruck in the City, Backstreet Rookie, and more. Shin Hye-Sun has previously worked in many successful dramas like The Legend of the Blue Sea, See You in My 19th Life, and Mr. Queen among others.
