Actor Jung Joon-won spoke about his past struggles.

On the 5th, a video titled "Jung Joon-won's Story (feat. Married Woman Killer)" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'YouTube Ha Ji-young'.

In the released video, Jung Joon-won is shown having various conversations with Ha Ji-young.

When asked about "life lessons learned last year," Jung Joon-won replied, "I think the period right before the launch of 'Unjeoneun Seulgi-uril Jeong-gwa-ui Saeng-hwal' was the most difficult time in my life. The work we do requires a lot of luck, and since it's a profession where I must be selected, even before being cast for this project, I wondered, 'Am I someone who shouldn't do this job?' But anyway, since it's something I love, I realized that if I don't give up, opportunities will come."

He continued, "In fact, I can't really tell others because I don't think what happened to me applies to everyone. I was incredibly lucky, almost like a miracle. Sometimes junior colleagues ask me for advice. When they're thinking of quitting, they don't want me to tell them to stop; they just want comfort. But I couldn't say that. It would feel like false hope, and I'd end up looking irresponsible."

Jung Joon-won added, "Still, not giving up on what I love was a gift-like time, and since an opportunity was given, it was important to have confidence and work hard."

Ha Ji-young asked, "How are things now?" Jung Joon-won answered, "I'm so grateful. It's a miraculous moment that something I once dreamed of is actually coming true."
