He said, "It was hard indeed. But both on Crash Landing On You and Confidential Assignment, I speak Pyongyang dialect.

"I used to when I was little, but I haven't been playing for a while. I haven't been playing for so long I forgot everything. But because of that scene, I had to play the piano. So I practiced that piece. That scene was filmed in Switzerland. As you know, there aren't pianos in hotel rooms. So we brought the piano from Korea. We brought a digital piano all the way to Switzerland so I could practice in my room. Then we shot the scene," the actor added.
