Actor Lee Gwang-soo stated that the striking visual of his "gold tooth" (tooth gem) was his own idea.

The production presentation for Disney+'s "Gold Land" was held at the Conrad Seoul in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, on the 27th. Actors Park Bo-young, Kim Sung-cheol, Lee Hyun-wook, Kim Hee-won, Moon Jung-hee, and Lee Gwang-soo, along with director Kim Sung-hoon, attended the event.

"Gold Land" is a golden desire survival thriller in which Hee-ju (played by Park Bo-young), who has obtained 150 billion won worth of gold bars from a smuggling organization, fights to monopolize the gold amidst a chaotic world of greed and betrayal.

Lee Gwang-soo previously drew attention for his visual appearance with a tooth gem embedded with gold in "Gold Land." Lee Gwang-soo stated, "The script did not include anything about the past of the character Mr. Park that I am playing, so I wanted to show Mr. Park's arduous life through facial scars. I also proposed the idea of expressing the obsession with gold through accessories or gold teeth." He continued, "However, since people showed interest in the gold teeth, the director said it was 'my idea.' I remember clearly that I thought of it first."

In response, director Kim Sung-hoon said, "It can be said that Mr. Gwang-soo did it. However, since it might have happened elsewhere, to be precise, it is true that Lee Gwang-soo first suggested, 'What if we do gold teeth?' Then I said, 'Ordinary gold teeth are predictable, so let's add a frame,' but since they didn't understand what I meant, I explained it." He then asserted his share of the contribution.

In response, Lee Gwang-soo joked, "I will release the text message records. The share is about 8:2."

Meanwhile, "Gold Land" will release its second episode on April 29, followed by 10 episodes released two at a time each week.
