Lee Seung Gi described, "SHINee's Minho plays the role of my younger brother, so we had an important scene to shoot the next day. We had to convey some emotional expressions on camera which was difficult to do on our first meet."

He then explained, "So we encouraged each other and agreed to film the scene well, and we decided to dine in at a local Chinese restaurant, hoping to get to know one another and went for a round of drinks. Everyone seemed to be in a good mood. I thought it was a wrap-up party or something. I, too, went for a few drinks of Chinese liquor (Baijiu)."

The star continued, "Our boss said there were about 5-6 bottles so I figured that would be enough for everybody. But then he bought some more and we ended up drinking 30 bottles in total."

Lee Seung Gi expressed, "We had to film an action sequence the following day and Minho was perfectly fine. Whereas, a few of us were in the dressing room, unable to recall what happened the night before.� Minho even came over to greet us; he has an outstanding mentality."

Meanwhile, historical film 'Marital Harmony' is slated to release in theatres on February 28.
