'Oktopus Room's Problem Children' (hereinafter 'Ok-mun-a') featured actor Jung Hae-in sharing behind-the-scenes stories about his past activities.
On the afternoon of the 7th, the 323rd episode of KBS 2TV's 'Ok-mun-a' aired with OTT Netflix original series 'Such a Ridiculous Love' leads Jung Hae-in and Ha Young as guests.
That day, MC Hong Jin-kyung mentioned one of Jeong Hae-in-ui (CEO)works, 'The Pretty Sister Who Buys Me Food' (2018). In that work, Jung Hae-in delivered a sweet romantic performance alongside actress Son Ye-jin, who is six years his senior, and earned the title of 'National Younger Man'.
Hong Jin-kyung asked affectionately, "There was something about Jung Hae-in's acting that made my heart skip. In 'The Pretty Sister Who Buys Me Food,' your drunk laughing face became a popular internet meme. Were you actually drunk at the time?"
That scene was none other than the 'drunken kiss scene' with Son Ye-jin. Regarding this, Jung Hae-in revealed the hidden behind-the-scenes story of his realistic acting: "We actually drank alcohol during filming. After having a few drinks and feeling tipsy, I told the director, 'I'm going,' and filmed it."

Furthermore, Jung Hae-in also shared the back story behind his debut. He said, "I originally planned to enroll in a science or engineering program but suddenly changed my path. I was cast on the street and ended up debuting. I was naturally introverted and quiet, but acting allowed me to express myself and relieve stress. Seeing myself step forward in front of others felt strange, and I experienced a sense of catharsis."
As he debuted at the relatively late age of 26, Jung Hae-in also confessed, "I didn't attend any acting academies during middle or high school. So it was extremely difficult, and I worked even harder."
He then expressed gratitude for having received acting guidance from senior actor Gimhae-sook early in his career. They had previously collaborated on the 2016 drama 'Yes, That's How It Is,' where they played father and son.
Jung Hae-in said, "I appeared as the senior's son role, and he took great care of me and taught me acting. He even invited me to his home, cooked for me, and conducted one-on-one script readings. I was so grateful."
He continued, "The senior was very scary and strict. Because I was quite lacking and couldn't keep up, once during practice he told me, 'I won't teach you anymore, get out.' But how could I leave? I kept enduring. What remains vividly in my memory is when the senior said, 'If you do well, I can survive too. Acting isn't something one person should master alone; let's try to do well together.'"
