Regarding this matter, an agent from Kim Bum's agency said, 'Kim Bum actually has a desire to hurry up and go to the army,' and 'I think he has made up his mind to go somewhere that offers difficult training,' and 'We plan to make it possible for him to go whenever he wants to.'
In addition, Kim Bum revealed his affection for his character 'Tae Do' in the drama. He said, 'When I first saw the script, I thought Tae Do was really an admirable character,' and 'although it took a little bit of adapting and adjusting, I feel as if I have grown into the character.'
