In one cover, Gong Yoo is seen smiling brightly at the camera with the clear sky blue behind him. The second version is more serious and intense as the actor gazes into the camera against a wall. All in all, the actor looks handsome as always.

After the photo shoot, the actor revealed what he's been up to since his popular drama, 'Goblin'. He said, "There are times when a person breaks down after staying busy and nervous for a period of time. A wave of physical and mental pain hit me all at once. After I broke down, endured, let go of some things, I came back to me and had some time to myself."

The actor also spoke on his future/next work, "Even though it's difficult, I wanted to work on a movie quickly but when I did, there was no work in my hand. I think I want to be part of something new with people who connect well with me."
