Production
The drama faced casting difficulties prior to filming. Han Ga-in and Chun Jung-myung were initially considered for the cast (Han in the leading role of Oh Eun-soo) and even attended the read-through, but were later removed from consideration, reportedly by popular but demanding drama writer Kim Soo-hyun. Kim Sa-rang was next considered for the role, but also didn't make the cut. After much media coverage, Lee Ji-ah was eventually cast.
It was also originally slated to be directed by Jung Eul-young, Kim Soo-hyun's longtime collaborator. But Jung dropped out due to health issues, and was replaced by producer Son Jung-hyun.
