    French fans were delighted with the surprise date with the two and expressed their happiness.

    On this day, the two chose the more preferred option of the two, and played a 'equal unity balance game' at the same time, and they showed off their chemistry well, just like the nickname 'Cheongdam-dong couple'.

    To the question of 'Tell me one thing from the past' or 'Ask one thing for my future self', both of them chose the same 'future'. He added, "I want to ask how long I can be healthy."

    In addition, to the question of whether to choose 'NG in action scenes' or 'NG in emotional scenes', he answered "NG in emotional scenes" at the same time.

    When asked the question, "'Life without friends' or 'Life without a lover'?", the two could not readily answer as if they were in trouble. Lee Jung Jae said, "I should have both…" and finally gave up on the choice, and Jung Woo Sung said "both".

    Lee Jung Jae's reply, which seemed to be conscious of his lover Lim Se Kyung, vice president of Daesang, caught the attention of viewers.

    It is a spy action drama that unfolds in the face of a huge incident called 'Korea's No. 1 Assassination Operation'. 

    This is Lee Jung Jae's directorial debut, and was screened at the Lumière Theater in Cannes, France on May 19th (local time).
