On October 10th, the photo was posted on a community bulletin board with the titled, "Won Bin and his ultimate manner hand". For those unfamiliar with the term, the term 'manner hand' denotes the effort of male celebrities (ie. Kim Heechul) reducing as much direct body contact with others as possible. The photo was taken 11 years ago during KBS 2TV's drama 'Autumn Tale' with Moon Geun Young and Choi Woo Hyuk. Netizens that viewed the photo commented, "Why such discrimination towards Choi Woo Hyuk?", "[Won Bin] is the original manner hand", and "Moon Geun Young really looks her age."

The series consists of two episodes which follows Won Bin's adventures in New Zealand. The concept for the CF is 'Discovering your true self by meeting people through an adventure in the new world'. The first episode kicks off in Queenstown, New Zealand where the actor is seen wandering around, asking for directions. This version's theme is 'fall', and so Won Bin was shot taking in the view while wearing K2's autumn season outfits. The second version has a 'winter' theme, which has Won Bin taking on a more active lifestyle as he hikes up snowy hills and slides down on a rubber tire. Viewers were also able to see the actor's sweet side as he cheerfully played with the local children. Despite the beautiful scenery and Won Bin's natural acting, it's said that filming for the scenes was extremely difficult due to the tough terrain and long waiting periods between each shooting session.
