This comment caused great laughter during the broadcast. He has been actively working in various genres recently, building a villain image through consecutive noir and genre works. He said, "In 'Somebody,' I played a serial killer; in 'The Villainess,' I was the second-in-command of an organized crime group; and in 'Trigger,' I played a weapons broker," adding, "I wanted to try various characters regardless of genre."

Kim Young-kwang also shared behind-the-scenes stories from filming 'Trigger.' He mentioned that the scene where his character refers to himself in the third person was particularly challenging. Additionally, he shared a heartwarming story about senior actress Lee Young-ae, saying, "We filmed together on 'Eunsoo's Good Day,' and she was always cheerful and caring on set. She even brought food and sent gifts," expressing his gratitude.

He also shared filming episodes with Kim Nam-gil from 'Trigger.' He honestly talked about moments on set and his appreciation during promotional schedules. Alongside this, behind-the-scenes details of the upcoming film 'First Ride' were revealed. He praised Cha Eun-woo, saying, "Cha Eun-woo's presence alone energizes the set," and added, "It took some time to get close with Kang Ha-neul, but I saw an unexpected side of him during overseas filming."

This episode will also reveal Kim Young-kwang's past. After debuting as a model, he entered acting with the drama 'The World They Live In' and established himself as the 'original rom-com king' by sharing romantic chemistry with Park Bo-young in the film 'On Your Wedding Day.'
