Hwang Dong-Hyuk also pointed out that, after rolling the dramatic scene in which one of them sacrifices to give the other a chance, the two actresses broke up crying inconsolably and with such intensity that the makeup artists had to let atime for that puddle of tears and eyelids to be dried a little."We were too immersed in feelings during that scene.We were not supposed to cry, but our eyes were already flooded, "Yoo-Mi would then comment.
