Lee continued, “When filming TV series, the tradition has been strong – all night shooting, 7 days a week shooting, separate shooting. But in my case, I make it a rule to only film for six days per week and no overnight filming.”

He explained that a day of rest will help the filming, “The whole day of rest can be used to prepare lines and recover energy, this is the care I give to actors. Although normally I don’t allow overnight shooting, but if required, I will ensure that actors and actresses have at least 4 hours of sleep. Although there is still many filming environment that provides this conditions, but at least provides appropriate level of rest to actors, then the filming will be more relaxing.”

Lee thanked his actors in conclusion, “The drama has so many scenes which are hard on physical such as scenes that have to run or roll. But I’m thankful that, whether it’s because of their great physique or personalities, they’re putting in all their effort.”
