In KBS2's historical K-drama, Rowoon takes on the role of Shin Jung Woo, an intelligent young man who managed to be the youngest participant to rank first in the state examination.
The 27-year-old star shared the odd way he memorizes his lines. According to him, one of the most challenging parts of the preparation is memorizing lines.
"I am the type of person who reads a lot of scripts and memorizes all of the opponent's lines, so it is really difficult during the preparation period for the work."
To help him remember every word, Rowoon shared a traditional trick he does before he sleeps.
"I put the script under my pillow, and when I sleep, I pray that it will all come into my head."

From his working relationship with the co-star to preparation for his current drama, Rowoon also spoke about his differences in character.
According to the actor, unlike Shim Jung Woo, he does not engage himself in matchmaking.
When asked if he ever arranged a blind date, Rowoon said that he "has absolutely no interest" in setting people on a date.
"I get tired when I get involved in someone else's relationship."
"The Matchmaker" is Rowoon's current K-drama, airing every Monday and Tuesday.
After this, he is set to headline another historical series, "Murky Water," penned by "All of Us Are Dead" screenwriter Chun Sung Il.
