During the event, Yoon Sang-ho revealed what made him cast Go Soo in the project.
The director first mentioned Go Soo's nickname 'Govid', which compared Go Soo's striking good looks to the David Statue.
"This series is kind of like the tale of David and Goliath. As everyone knows, Go Soo has this nickname, David.", Yoon Sang-ho playfully said.
"I've been a fan of Go Soo since his early days. Time passed, and now we've come to work together on a project. I think he is even more good-looking than actor Cha (Eun-woo), who is very popular these days.", Yoon Sang-ho remarked.
"I think Go Soo is visually invincible. So, I wanted to have the opportunity to explore his charm fully.", the director shared, adding, "In the editing room, I kept on saying things like, 'Gosh, he's so good-looking!'."
While the director gushed about his striking good looks, Go Soo seemed embarrassed, chuckling and glancing down.
The host then asked the actor an intriguing question: "As we are discussing your appearance now, I'd like you to tell us what thoughts cross your mind when you look into the mirror."
"Are you guys messing with me right now?", Go Soo asked, bursting out laughing.
He resumed, "When I wake up in the morning and look myself in the mirror, I think, okay, everything is in its place.", Go Soo shared, making everyone laugh.
