Player 067 is played by Jung Ho-yeon who is dating 36-year-old South Korean actor Lee Dong-hwi. The couple announced their relationship back in January 2016 but quickly faced criticism due to the nine-year age gap as Jung was only 21-years-old at the time and Lee was around 30-years-old.

Abdul Ali is played by 32-year-old Anupam Tripathi and he is actually single!! Apparently he loves to spend time with his friends and enjoys sharing photos of them on his social media. So I can confirm he is just as wholesome in real life.

Oh Young-soo (Oh Il-nam, player 001)

Oh Young-soo plays Il-nam and he is 76-years-old! He seems really reserved about his personal life and hasn’t really said anything about his marriage. But we do know he is married, he has been married since 1998 and has two sons. Both of his sons are attempting to break into the acting industry like their dad.

Gong Yoo plays the recruiter and would you BELIEVE this man is 42-years-old?? I want whatever he’s drinking please. He also considered himself to be too young to get married and he’s not actually dating anyone at the minute. Gong has previously said: “Dating someone has become hard for me because I got used to being simple, I won’t try randomly choosing a partner and just leave things to chance.”
