At the press conference for the new drama on June 26, Lee Byung Hun commented, "Biologically we have a big age gap but I couldn't feel it at all when acting. I couldn't believe she's a rookie."
Kim Tae Ri also said, "I've worked with many great sunbaenims in all movies up til now. I was often asked if I feel pressured (working with veteran actors) but I think I'm very blessed." And added, "I was afraid that I might not be able to keep up when acting (with Lee Byung Hun). I'm trying my best. He treats me very comfortably so I didn't feel any discomfort at all."
The first episode of 'Mr. Sunshine' is scheduled to air on July 7.
