Woo-joo has lived in pain for a long time after having the things she valued taken away from her," Lee Sung Kyung said. "When we say it is a revenge story, many would think of this as a cathartic, dynamic revenge-genre series. But Woo-joo is a person who doesn't have what it takes to get revenge. As she leaps to protect something special to her, she finds herself experiencing an unexpected feeling."

Due to their characters, Lee Sung Kyung and Kim Young Kwang reportedly decided to avoid each other on set so they could portray their characters the way they should be.

By not talking during filming, the lead stars managed to stay in character so the scenes would be able to touch viewers' hearts.

According to Kim Young Kwang, they are close friends in real life, so they had to do something to help themselves play their roles.

"Towards the beginning of the shooting, I tried to avoid Lee. I felt like I shouldn't step out of Dong-jin's persona. Since we are so close already, it didn't feel right to joke around and have fun with her (on the set)," the actor said.

Lee Sung Kyung did the same in order to have the hostility her character has toward his character.
