Director Jang Jin revealed, "Kim Soo-ro had a rough time. The actual Kim Soo-ro couple has a good relationship. Thinking about his wife not being there made it difficult for him".

He added, "I was surprised at the new Kim Soo-ro who is always so lively and cheerful. He doesn't even drink and he told me he would have a beer on the way home. It was fun making a person like him to a different character".

Meanwhile, movie "Romantic Heaven" draws the miracles of parting and meeting someone you love. Min-gyu desperately misses his wife who passed away, Jo-wook (Kim Dong-wook) who wants to find his grandfathers first love, Mi-mi (Kim Ji-won) who wants to spend her lifetime with her loving mother and such.
