D.O. said, "I think the difficulty is where I have to simultaneously be a singer and actor. It wasn't easy to be a singer on stage overseas and then return to my character for the movie. But I think it's something that I need to overcome. EXO members also tend to cheer me on. It's not that they give me advice, but all of them have some experience in acting so they understand and that gives me support."

The idol actor's new film 'Hyung' is set to release on November 30, and D.O. is currently in talks to join mystery thriller film 'Room #7'.
