Lomon shared his closing thoughts as "No Tail to Tell" wrapped.
SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama "No Tail to Tell" (written by Park Chan-young and Cho Ah-young, directed by Kim Jung-kwon) aired its finale on February 28.
In the series, Lomon played Kang Si-yeol, a world-famous soccer star with blazing passion. He convincingly portrayed the hidden void behind the glamor and the character’s growth. Blending rom-com flutter with fantasy elements and deeper emotional beats, he broadened his acting range and delivered a fully realized character.
On March 3, through his agency, Lomon said, “Maybe because we poured our hearts into it with such good people, the set became a warm, precious memory for me. I was happy living as Kang Si-yeol these past months, and thanks to our hardworking staff and cast, I feel like I grew so much. It’s hard to let go, but I’m wrapping up with a full heart thanks to all the viewers who showed us so much love.”
He added, “Thank you for watching over Si-yeol’s imperfect but heartfelt journey and cheering him on. I hope the small but meaningful happiness he found offers a bit of comfort in your daily lives,” promising, “I won’t forget the passion and sincerity I learned from Si-yeol, and I’ll work hard to show you an even better Lomon.”
Below is Lomon’s full finale Q&A for "No Tail to Tell".
Q.
Share your thoughts as "No Tail to Tell" comes to an end.
Because we made this with such great people and so much passion, the set holds so many warm, precious memories for me. I was happy living as Kang Si-yeol these past few months, and thanks to our hardworking staff and cast, I feel like I grew a lot. It’s sad to say goodbye, but I’m ending on a high note thanks to the viewers’ love.
Q.
Is there a scene or line from Kang Si-yeol that you’re especially attached to?
The reunion with his grandmother really stayed with me. Si-yeol had been living in glamor and success, forgetting―or trying to ignore―someone precious. Facing that person again was deeply moving. Filming it made me think hard about what we must never lose sight of in life.
Q.
What new side of yourself did you want to show through this role?
I wanted to show Si-yeol’s dynamic charm―the fiery passion and energy of an athlete. Not just the flashy star side, but a three-dimensional character who’s honest about his feelings and sometimes quirky and cute. I hope this project helps people see me as a more approachable, multifaceted actor.
Q.
Did playing Kang Si-yeol expand you as an actor in any way?
My “empathy lens” widened. As I acted Si-yeol learning to understand others’ pain and facing his own emptiness, I rethought how I relate to people, too. It went beyond just playing a role; I could really feel how a person’s inner self grows stronger through love and understanding. That was invaluable.
Q.
You’ve done a lot of intense, genre-driven roles. What felt most different about taking on a romance-centered story?
I had to dive as deeply into relationships and emotional exchange as I did into plot. Instead of physical action, it was about conveying sincerity through tiny tremors in a conversation or a single look. Since the back-and-forth energy with my scene partner drives the story, I tried to fine-tune my rhythm in every moment.
Q.
What did you newly realize about expressing emotions while doing full-on romance acting?
I realized true love means honestly acknowledging your empty spaces and filling those gaps with each other’s warmth. More than just being considerate, empathy―feeling the other person’s pain together―makes love deeper. That helped me approach emotions more truthfully and simply.
Q.
A final message to viewers who loved Kang Si-yeol in "No Tail to Tell"?
Thank you for warmly watching over Si-yeol’s imperfect growth and cheering him on. I hope the small but precious happiness he found brings a little comfort to your everyday life. I won’t forget the passion and sincerity I learned from him, and I’ll work hard to show you an even better Lomon. Wishing everyone happiness!
