Actor Lee Joon-young expressed his feelings about trying to act Rocco through the drama 'I Dream of Cinderella in the open'.

Lee Joon-young met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 2nd and said, `I felt like I was being praised by my teacher after finishing my homework well.'

Baek Mi-kyung, the legendary hitmaker who recorded consecutive hits with `Dignified Her', `Strong Woman' series, `Mine` as a creator, and Kim Min-kyung, who showed sympathetic comedy with `Comedy Big League` and `SNL Korea," and newcomer Yuja joined forces.

On this day, Lee Joon-young said "This work was a big challenge for me. I felt like I was being complimented by my teacher after finishing my homework well. I gained confidence while acting, and there are some things that I'm sad about, but I think I'll be able to improve in the future by checking the areas that need to be supplemented," he said in his closing remarks.

Playing Moon Cha-min, the eighth-generation chaebol and the representative of Cheongdam Heaven, a social club, in the play, he said, `I felt at ease because I acted as a chaebol who lacked something and did not completely achieve what I wanted.' In the meantime, "I wanted to act differently from the existing chaebol." The first thing I thought was 'Bright Chaebol'. I tried to make a character who said everything while keeping his mind straight. Thankfully, the writer said 'You're good because you know it, so you're good.'" I was glad that you liked the character I made, and I felt that the process I've tried so far was not in vain, so I worked harder to shoot until the end."

Lee Joon-young previously revealed his strong presence through villainous acting, from the original Netflix series 'D.P.' and 'Mask Girl' to the movie 'Brave Citizen'. Showing his new face through 'Dreams instead of Me', he said "The villain image is so strong that I'm ashamed to say it with my own mouth, but I had a lot of meetings with the staff to show them the styles and hairstyles that could produce 'boyfriend shots'. While talking to stylists, I also searched for accessories myself. It was awkward because it was my first time, but I'm proud that it came out as well as I tried hard.'
