Lee Dong Wook even tried to calm himself down due to being too immersed in the role. He explained, "I thought it was fine even when playing the villain. But my friends say that my eyes have changed."
"In fact, one day, I looked in the mirror after washing my face and I wasn't used to myself. So I thought to calm myself down," he added.
He then explained, "In the drama, there is a scene where I have to pull my teeth out to torture someone. The intensity of the pain is shown on the screen, but I suddenly thought, 'How can I pull out a tooth to make it more painful?'"
"At that moment I thought, 'What is this?' I thought once again that I should be more careful when playing a role like this," concluded the 1981-born actor.
