The pictures do a good job capturing his complexity of expression in the drama. He constantly gives the impression that he is having some kind of strong emotional reaction, but it's difficult to tell what kind, because he's doing a good job of hiding it.
This is entirely in keeping with his character in the original webcomic "Love Alarm" was based on, which is a major part of what's been drawing interest to the drama. The premise too is appropriate for the design, as the drama deals with a special app that tells people if someone within ten meters likes them romantically or not.
