The newly released stills feature the first meeting between Hong Eun Jo and Yi Yeol. The photos show them in a bustling marketplace. In the image, Eun Jo appears like a noble woman, wearing a fine silk outfit. Meanwhile, Yi Yeol looks like a slave in his rags. They seek shelter under the eaves when it starts raining.

"Yi Yeol is a carefree, playful character, but at the same time, he has a deeply sincere, devoted side when it comes to the woman he loves. That contrast really stood out to me. I think Yi Yeol's greatest charm lies in how moments that make you smile naturally coexist with moments where he earnestly lays bare his heart," Sang Min teased.
