Lee Si-eon was offered the humorous cameo appearance on the strength of his ability to do an authentic Busan dialect. He's most famous for doing so in the television drama "Reply 1997" where he was also cast in part on account of his being a Busan native. Lee Si-eon had leading roles in the recent films "Killed my Wife" and "Search Out" although he has more recently focused on variety shows. He also had a cameo in "The Penthouse 2" as a detective earlier this year.
