Sung Ki-yoon, obviously not a youth himself, has been cast as the father of Hwi-yeong, who will be played in turn by Shin Seung-ho. Hwi-yeong's father is a cold, smart man who made a success of himself starting from nothing. He shows a harsh, scary countenance when it comes to his son's education.

Sung Ki-yoon is a minor character actor who specializes in authoritative roles. He was the president in "Descendants of the Sun", a teacher on "Monster - 2016", a judge on "The Good Wife", and the ship captain in "Human, Space, Time and Human", among others.

"A Moment at Eighteen" will be the big break for director Sim Na-yeon, who directed the short dramas "Hip Hop Teacher" and "A Midsummer's Memory". She will be joined by long-time screenwriter Yoon Kyeong-ah, who holds writing credits for "Brain", "All About My Mom", and "Girls' Generation 1979" among others.
