Shin Seung-ho, who received attention for his realistic acting that evokes PTSD as he plays a senior soldier who viciously harasses and assaults his successor in his previous Netflix film "D.P", he returns comically with "Pilot" which ranks first in the box office. He performed naturally as a junior pilot who constantly falls in love with his senior (Cho Jung-seok), who gets a job dressed up as a woman. He is said to have completed a character that cannot be hated by making use of his cute charms even with his constant 'flirting'.

Prior to the movie's release, Shin Seung-ho also drew attention in Cho Jung-seok's YouTube content "Salon Drip" with his playful appearance, which is contrary to his low-middle-low voice. Cho Jung-seok introduced Shin Seung-ho as 'a cute and naughty boy in real life', while Shin Seung-ho said, "I am delicate and timid in real life. I also like cross-knitting. I won first place in the school by making shorts that I did in my middle school skills class", drawing laughter.

Prior to this, Um Tae-goo, who played the villain in the action and noir genre with his bold appearance and unique rough voice, is said to have made a drastic transformation and opened a new heyday through JTBC drama "My Sweet Mobster", his first romance comedy. Playing a natural-born soloist who has been running a social enterprise after 36 years of clearing up his dark past, he rose to the top of the popularity list of drama actors by charmingly portraying a restless character who falls for a kid's creator (Han Sunhwa).

Due to the popularity of the drama, videos of past entertainment appearances that contain his real life, such as "The Wheeled House", have become popular again on YouTube. Thanks to such a response, fans are expecting an appearance on tvN's flagship entertainment show "Hangout With Yoo" which will air on the 29th.
