Prior to the film release, IU joined an interview to talk about the film, reports Soompi.
IU said, “It was about four years ago when I first received the script. At that time, I had a strong thirst for [taking on] a bright character because I had done a few dark characters with lots of backstories in a row. I couldn’t help but be attracted to the character So Min.”

Talking about her chemistry with co-star Park Seo Joon, IU said, “I had high expectations for filming together [with Park Seo Joon]. Park Seo Joon is a flexible and quick-witted actor. We started filming with some nervousness without having talked much in private, but it was rather comfortable once filming started. Since the relationship between So Min and Hong Dae is not so good, I think a little bit of nervousness helped.”
IU added, “When it was possible to get close [with Park Seo Joon], [filming] got interrupted repeatedly due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, so we couldn’t get much closer personally”,
When IU was asked about her actor boyfriend Lee Jong Suk, IU shyly said, “I’m surprised that [so many people] show interest in my relationship and cheer me on a lot. I think fondly and quietly keeping this relationship going is the best way to repay that love.”
An interesting fact about 'Dream' is that according to reports, Lee Jong Suk, was actually offered a role in the movie. IU only found out when she was asked about it in an interview. IU said, "I just found out (that Lee Jong Suk was offered a role) by you asking the question. There is nothing I can tell you because I haven’t heard anything (about Lee Jong Suk being offered a role)."
'Dream' will hit the theaters on April 26.
