We are currently working hard so that we can deliver big laughs and make viewers hearts’ flutter.” (Photo and quote source: Soompi)

"Despite the fact that now his life is filled with success, Jin Mu Hak clearly remembers what it was like to live in poverty. Because of this, he owns all kinds of precious and expensive items, but he believes that if he spends money, people must notice it and that whatever he buys must be worth the cost.

“What is Dal Li like to Moo Hak?

It’s my first time seeing someone who doesn’t know the ways of the world like this.

What is she, a crow or something? 

Later on, Dal Li says, "It’s not a simple picture but a work of art."

Mooo Hak, continues, “She’s precisely the perfect type to get scammed.

I don’t really like people who use difficult words,

However, Dal Li is a bit different.”
