Recently, Lee Dong-Wook opened up about why he chose this drama during a press conference on July 14, 2025. During the conversation, he said (via Pinkvilla), “It was exhausting to constantly create a new world view, to fly through the sky on wires, or to become an uncle from another realm. When I read the script for The Nice Guy, it felt like my feet were finally back on the ground. I wanted to act out something realistic.” He further explained, “I didn’t prepare anything special for this role. It’s more like everyday acting.”
