He continued, "Actually, I felt really pressured about my acting as well as career after 'Parasite'. I wasn't sure how I should choose my future projects, and act in them. I felt tight and heavy on my chest."
He went on, "I couldn't sleep at night because of those concerns. Then, one day, I thought to myself, 'I am thinking and worrying way too much'. So, I started searching for ways to do that."

The actor said, "I realized that it would help to pick a project that I could have fun while completing it. That was 'The Policeman's Lineage'. I enjoyed every part of the making process."
He resumed, "The way for me to press the pressure down from 'Parasite' was to become part of a project with a process that would make me feel relaxed and happy."
