She said, “We work so well together that I wonder if this is really the first time our team has met. I’ve learned a lot during our script reading. I’m looking forward to the future.”

Kim Sung Kyu said, “I’m grateful to be working on ‘Half of Half.’ I’m going to work hard to create a great project.” He transformed the atmosphere with his low voice as he portrayed the character of pianist Kang In Wook who’s stuck in a slump.
