Actor Park Eun-seok has revealed the behind-the-scenes story of how he landed the role of Logan Lee in the hit drama 'Penthouse'.

Appearing on the JTBC show 'Knowing Bros' on the 22nd, Park Eun-seok shared details about his casting.

"I was originally offered the role of Dr. Ha," Park Eun-seok explained. "However, the character had a middle school daughter, and I felt the image didn't fit me, so I turned it down."

He confessed, "After the script reading, the atmosphere at the cast dinner was not good. I thought to myself, 'I've been cut,'" recounting his initial fears.

However, a meeting with the writer changed his fate. "The writer called me in and asked, 'Can you speak English? Can you be funny? Can you be silly?'" Park Eun-seok recalled. "Afterward, I went to Dongdaemun to buy glasses and even got false teeth fitted at the dentist to embody the character," he added, eliciting laughter from the hosts.

Netizens were surprised by the revelation, commenting, "It's amazing that Logan Lee was originally Dr. Ha!", "Actor Park Eun-seok's acting is top-notch! The role of Logan Lee is perfect for him", and "His ability to embody characters is incredible."
