As the two work together, their professional relationship will take heartwarming and unpredictable turns.
Hong sisters, known for their works like The Greatest Love, Hotel Del Luna, Master's Sun, and Alchemy of Souls, are the screenwriters of this mini-series. Yoo Young Eun of Bloody Heart fame directed it. The K-drama stars Kim Seon Ho, Go Youn Jung, Sota Fukushi, Choi Woo Sung, and Lee Yi Dam. Seon Ho will portray Ju Ho Jin, a multilingual interpreter fluent in Japanese, Italian, English, and other languages.

Woo Sung will feature Kim Yong Woo, Mu Hee's manager. Yi Dam will portray Shin Ji Seon, a producer who recognises Mu Hee's hidden talent.
The preview video teases a love triangle between Mu Hee, Kurosawa, and Ho Jin. It shows the multilingual translator hesitating to translate when Kurosawa confessed to Mu Hee. Meanwhile, the newly released stills hint at the various challenges faced by the top star in a foreign land.
With just a couple of days left for the premiere, cast members Seon Ho and Youn Jung spilled some details about the mini-series. According to the cast members, their characters grew closer in Canada.
"It's the part where Ho Jin and Mu Hee grow closer, and it was actually the step in which my chemistry with Go Youn Jung improved during the actual filming. The atmosphere was great as usual. The director and Go Youn Jung led the atmosphere well, and I was also pulled along. It was a happy filming," Seon Ho shared.
