Production[]
First script reading took place on June 7, 2017 at JTBC building in Sangam, Seoul, South Korea.
Originally, it was expected that all five main roles would be the same from the previous season. However, early on Ryu Hwa Young was removed from the main cast. Instead a new character, Jo Eun, was created to fill in the five person dynamic of the show. Park Hye Soo was also supposed to be part of the main cast, but due to a scheduling conflict, she stepped down from the role. Unlike Ryu Hwa Young, this happened late into pre-production and so the character, Yoo Eun Jae, stayed and the role was taken on by actress Ji Woo instead.
Onew was originally cast in the role of Kwon Ho-chang, but he stepped down in light of controversy surrounding him ten days before the drama's premiere, and was replaced with Lee Yoo Jin.
Trivia[]
- This drama took over the timeslot previously occupied by "The Lady in Dignity" and was followed by "The Package" on October 13, 2017.
