Park Joo-Hyun, Kim Young-Dae, and Kim Woo-Seok are all taking on a historical drama for the first time. Park Joo-Hyun said, “I’ve heard too many stories that historical drama itself is a genre that comes with great difficulties. (Honestly) I started it in fear. As expected, it was as hard on my body as I thought. Most of the filming was done outdoors, so there were restrictions in hot and cold weather. But the atmosphere at the filming site was bright like a drama. It was difficult, but we had fun together and got through it well.”
Next, Kim Young-Dae said, “I was worried a lot because it was my first time in the historical drama genre. ‘Golden Spirits’ is a work with a lot of fusion elements, so I didn’t feel a sense of distance. I had a good experience.” said.
Kim Woo-Seok said, “The cold and heat (since it’s a historical drama) came more clearly than any modern drama. I remember having a hard time together because I wanted to avoid the sunlight but there was no place to hide. It was fun,” recalling the filming site.

Director Park Sang-woo also said, “I know well that you are worried inside and outside because of the programming. It’s a competition, but I think it’s a good direction to grow the entire pie of the drama. Wouldn’t it be nice if everything goes well?
