I worked hard to strike the right balance without going too far in either direction.'

He also mentioned how when he started working on 'Nine Puzzles', he managed to reject every other offer that came his way. The actor detailed how he wanted to focus and put his everything into this project to make it a success.
'People kept asking what I was doing, and I'd always answer, 'Just this.' It's a tightly constructed mystery, so I didn't want to stand out in a distracting way. The director
Yoon Jong Bin
has a clear vision and extensive experience, so all I had to do was trust him and focus,' he shared in the report.
