Actor Jung Woo revealed that he felt the affection of Busan citizens while filming "Crayon Shin-chan."

On the 16th, a press screening for the movie "Crayon Shin-chan" was held at CGV Yongsan i-Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Actors Jung Woo, Jung Soo-jung, Shin Seung-ho, Jo Beom-gyu, Kwon So-hyun, and director Oh Sung-ho attended the event and shared various stories.

"Jjanggu" is a lively and passionate drama about the audition genius "Jjanggu" (played by Jung Woo), who, despite being knocked down and frustrated time and again, endures and rises again with a single dream: to become an actor.

Sixteen years after "Baram," "Jjanggu" returns to the screen. Actor Jung Woo and director Oh Seong-ho have reunited for "Jjanggu," bringing back a youth icon who once defined an era. "Jjanggu" is a work depicting the survival story of a 20-something Jjanggu who stepped out of the school fence into the world, set in the 2000s.

Jung Woo, a Busan native aspiring to become an actor, portrays Jjang-gu, a character who refuses to give up on his dreams despite facing the harsh realities of life.

Jung Woo said about the Busan location, "What I'm grateful for here is that neither nightclubs nor gukbap restaurants were available for location hunting, but after hearing that Jung Woo was doing this work, the relevant parties provided sponsorship."

He added, "I thought, 'I'm still alive. The people of Busan still love me so much,' and I filmed with gratitude."
