Contrary to expectations, the five shorts don't deal with each of the five senses, nor are they pure erotica.

The stars of KBS2 drama "The Slingshot" have expressed their determination to put everything they have into the drama until the very last episode.

Kim Kang-woo, Park Si-yeon and Park Yong-ha talked to reporters on May 21 at the shooting site of a scene where Chae Do-woo (Kim Kang-woo) and Seo Gyeong-a (Park Si-yeon) get married.

Park Yong-ha said that he's having a bit of a hard time maintaining a healthy condition because, with the series nearing the end, shooting often continues into the night. "There are fans who have liked and shown interest in our drama from the beginning. I cherish them most, so I will do my best until the very end not to disappoint them", he added.

Park Si-yeon explained how she feels about her character, who viewers have criticized for being ambiguous.

I still don't feel com...| More
