Key Quote

"I think the passing of his father was a big turning point in becoming the Choo Sung-hoon of today. Before, he had his own stubbornness saying 'You can't do it like this,' but now everything is 'yes.' He seems to accept everything and has changed to be positive in all directions." — Yano Shiho
