Nam Joo-hyuk decorated the cover of the April issue of Esquire as Dior Men's ambassador.

Baek I-jin, played by Nam Joo-hyuk, graduated from the high school where Na Hee-do (Kim Tae-ri) attended in the drama, four years earlier and played the role of a senior broadcasting club member who became a sports reporter.

The day of the photo shoot and interview was right after episode eight of the drama where Na Hee-do said, "I should have you". When asked about confession of youth, Nam Joo-hyuk said, "I've done it a lot in kindergarten and elementary school", but added, "I told anyone that I liked that I did and I've had people confess to me before. The important thing is that you have to make the attempt to get anything you want".

Nam Joo-hyuk also confessed the difficulties in acting in this interview.

He said, "As I played a lot of youth, my motivation to show a different side of me had become a little smaller before. That's why I felt more difficult to act in this work, he said. "I was able to find the right answer by talking a lot with the director and fellow actors".

The filming site of "Twenty Five Twenty One" is famous for its bright atmosphere. Nam Joo-hyuk also said in an interview that day, "I played table tennis and foot volleyball with the staff and actors. The set makes me feel comfortable".

When praised for his non-excessive comic acting, he said, "I always think about how I can act without excessive acting. I want to act naturally like a river flows". The April 2022 issue of Esquire, which Nam Joo-hyuk covered, will be available at bookstores from March 22nd, 2022 and can also be found on the Esquire Korea website.
