During the movie's press conference, the singer-actor shared his thoughts about filming the sci-fi movie and portraying a challenging character.

Doh Kyungsoo spent three months of training to play the role of astronaut Hwang Seon Woo.

"Everything that we thought an actor could do by hand, we tried to perform ourselves by hanging from wires," he said, as obtained by a media outlet, adding that they also had help from the experts for the technical part. "The parts that we couldn't do ourselves, an animator made cut by cut. Hanging from a wire was actually pretty difficult, because it wasn't just one wire, but five to six special wires."
