During the press conference, a day before the fan meeting, the actor revealed that he is similar to his role in Strong Girl Bong Soon. His translator explained, "It's kind of similar, but [his energy] needs to be a bit more high for him to be able to act like Minhyuk (also known as Mikael in the Tagalog version.) He really has to sustain that highness for him to be acting like one."

Also, just like his character, the singer-actor expressed how much he loves to play games, and even revealed that he could be a pro gamer if he wasn't a celebrity.

The actor also talked about visiting the Philippines to volunteer in Tacloban through the military-themed Korean reality show Real Men. His translator elaborated, "He was actually in the Philippines (for Real Men.) So, once he came here for Real Men, he really had a good impression of the Philippines, and he is really glad that he came back here as an actor, and he is very much thankful as well."
