Singer and actor Park Jin-young opened up about his honest concerns regarding acting activities since "Dream High."

On the 19th episode of JTBC's variety program "Please Take Care of My Refrigerator," Park Jin-young and director Jang Hang-jun appeared as guests. Kim Sung-ju kicked off the conversation by saying, "Park Jin-young mentioned he has something he really wants to ask Director Jang."

In response, Park Jin-young said, "I played Teacher Yang Jin-man in the KBS drama 'Dream High,' and the reaction was overwhelmingly positive. I heard many people say, 'He acts well' or 'He's good.'"

He continued, "Then suddenly, I received an offer to star in a film. Although I felt some burden, I ended up taking on the lead role. In fact, I should have declined it, but I was tempted."

Park Jin-young confessed, "Since then, not a single film offer has come my way," drawing laughter from the studio.

He added, "I thought if I took on a comedic supporting role, I could revive my career, so I subtly asked Director Jang about his next project, but it didn't work out. He mentioned that his upcoming work is a dark-themed film," expressing his regret.

When Kim Sung-ju asked, "Then what kind of role would you like to play in 'The King and the Clown'?" Park Jin-young replied, "I'm not talking about level; I'm talking about style. I'd like to try a role similar to actor Yoo Hae-jin."

He reiterated, "It's not about level. I'm saying this because I don't want to get criticized again, but it's about style, not level," which drew more laughter.

Hearing this, Jang Hang-jun joked, "Even though you say that, the headlines will read 'Park Jin-young: My acting is on Yoo Hae-jin's level.'"

Kim Pung also chimed in, saying, "That's exactly how it goes," while Kim Sung-ju countered with, "I should have played the role of Eom Heung-do that Yoo Hae-jin portrayed in 'The King and the Clown,'" turning the studio into a sea of laughter.
