A press conference about the project entitled "Brand Guardians", took place in Tokyo on Friday. Yoon was in attendance to talk about his feelings towards Japanese fashion.

Meanwhile, Yoon's co-star, Japanese actress Yu Takahashi, said of Yoon, "Before I met him, I was nervous -- but he was so warm and friendly from the first day".
Yoon said that he couldn't wait to impress the Japanese public with his acting skills that he will exemplify through his involvement in the Japanese movie.
The Internet feature will comprise of 13 episodes and is based on a story about a Korean youth who travels to Japan to make it as a fashion stylist.
