In an interview with The Korean Herald, Lee Min-ho spoke about his role in the film. He said,

“I’ll be honest, it was lonely and desolate. If you think about it, this is the protagonist of protagonists. Normally when we talk about a main character, we build their emotional arc throughout the film. My biggest challenge was figuring out how to fill those gaps convincingly.”

He added,

“I try to go straight for the essence. When I first met the director, we spent 80 percent of our time talking about Dok-ja (Ahn’s character). The audience has to buy into him first. Only then does Yoo Joong-hyuk’s presence start to make sense.”

He also said that he didn't find one moment in the script where his character felt cool. Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy was released in South Korea on July 23, 2025.
