He continued, “I’ve also heard rumors about Yoo Yeon-seok. They said he was kind, caring and gentle. Sometimes, when I go golfing, I pack something like that. “I bring drinks or frozen snacks,” he said, conveying Yoo Yeon-seok’s elegant side.
‘The Day of Misdiagnosis’, which they collaborated on, is a thriller that depicts the story of an ordinary taxi driver who takes a high-paying customer to a local area and embarks on a terrifying journey when he realizes his be a serial killer.
Lee Sung-min said of Yoo Yeon-seok, who transformed into a serial killer, “Why do they only cast good-looking men to play psychopaths? He raised a question, saying, “They did not cast as in the original, but they cast a good-looking man.”
Yoo Yeon-seok said, “I’ve enjoyed that kind of thing since I started. It was fun to play a role that went against my image, so I went back and forth between good and bad roles. “I’ve saved a lot of lives appearing in medical dramas recently, so this time I went in the opposite direction,” he joked.

He continued, “I once watched a film of my life. ‘If I hadn’t met that person then’ ‘If I hadn’t fought with that person’ That moment seemed to fit as if it had been carefully planned. “I think all those things worked together to be where I am now,” he reiterated.
The side of the ‘husband Lee Sung-min’, not the actor Lee Sung-min, was also introduced. When asked, “Don’t people usually recognize you?” Lee Seong-min responded, “It’s not difficult to take pictures, but it can be a bit difficult when there are many people around or with family. “But if my wife tells me to do it, I do it,” he said with a laugh.
Furthermore, “I went to Jeju Island a while ago, and when I refused to take a picture, he said, ‘My wife told me to take a picture.’ So I took pictures of everything. “You have to listen to what your wife says,” he joked.
