Kwon Sang-woo had discussed his intense fitness regime for "The Divine Move 2: The Wrathful" in many interviews and television programs. He had to lose six kilograms and maintain his body at only 9% fat - a process which had to be started some three months before filming actually began.

Kwon Sang-woo was reportedly looking for a physically intense role when he took on the project. To this end he cleared much of his schedule just to ensure that he would be able to maximize the effort into preparing his physique, to the point that he would even do intensive training on days that had been designated as cheat days for his diet.

Aside from the aesthetic appeal provided for "The Divine Move 2: The Wrathful", Kwon Sang-woo has also greatly improved his overall physical state thanks to this training, earning the body of a man twenty years younger than him. This is surprisingly appropriate in the context of "The Divine Move 2: The Wrathful", as his character is implied to be about that much younger than the real Kwon Sang-woo and also undergoes similarly intense physical training for the sake of his goal.
