In relation to playing Teddy, who hails from Texas, Seungri said, "After receiving the script, I worried over the role of Teddy a lot. �I also wondered if it might have turned out even better because my Chungcheongdo accent and English were not perfect. �In order to naturally do the Chungcheong-do accent, I prepared diligently for a month. However, the director suddenly told me to try the Jeolla-do accent, so I was confused."
