This is the scene where Song Hyekyo's character, Moon Dongeun, and Joo Yeojung, played by Lee Dohyun, play the game Go in the park. It was meant to portray Tapgol Park in Seoul (although actually filmed in Cheongju), so there are many old men playing Go or other Korean games in the park.

One of the most impressive supporting roles is the drug-addicted artist Lee Sara! Her luxurious mansion shown in the drama was actually filmed at the scenic cafe named 'Mung Hit' or 멍때림 on Ganghwa Island in Incheon.
