The episode has a fast pace, the details appear in quick succession, creating curiosity. Compared to Wi Ha Joon's character, Park Min Young's appearance is not too much, but it creates an impression with her sharp, cold appearance. The character's "little but dangerous speech" is a noteworthy point.
Sharing about the role, the actress said she had followed a strict diet, while focusing on expressing the contrast in Seol Ah's personality: confident when taking on the role of auctioneer but turning into a mysterious and gloomy character every time she is alone.
She also changed her voice tone to deep and slightly hoarse to better suit the character.
