One of the remarkable moments in Jin Yang Chul's life is falling into delirium. It is a syndrome in which overall brain function is impaired due to physical illness, drugs, or alcohol.

Viewers witnessed how the once mighty chairman ended up forgetting his past including who he used to be.

For Lee Sung Min, he says that he was able to understand Jin Yang Chul through his weakness and strength.

"I love the character I play. In particular, I had a lot of affection for the character Jin Yang Chul," he said, adding "Imagining the character's warrior, I was able to understand 'how fiercely he lived."
