Actor Jung Woong-in directly shared his thoughts regarding the controversy over allegations that he enforced strict discipline on juniors during his university days.

Jung Woong-in appeared in a video titled "Jang Jin, Jung Woong-in [Cheap Guy Shin Dong-yeop EP.166] Memories of Seoul Arts University Class of 1989 Who Spent Their Youth Together," released on the YouTube channel "Cheap Guy Shin Dong-yeop" on the 12th.

On this day, Jung Woong-in, a graduate of Seoul Arts University Class of 1989, was asked by his junior Shin Dong-yeop, from the Class of 1990, about an anecdote regarding being the "discipline enforcer" for juniors.

Recalling an incident during university where he got a bruise on his leg while stretching in a physical training club, Shin Dong-yeop explained, "After I had been stretched intensely at the time, Jung Woong-in called me separately to the restroom and I showed him the bruised area. However, this story was received differently from its original intent as it was passed along for comedic effect on broadcast."

Recalling that Jung Woong-in has three daughters, Shin Dong-yeop conveyed his regret by saying, "I didn't know. It suddenly occurred to me that you have three daughters. I suddenly thought of your children." In response, Jung Woong-in said, "If there had been something for me to explain, would I not have spoken up?" and added, "How do I endure it? I am bearing it alone."

Jung Woong-in also shared an anecdote about experiences he had due to his intense image as a villainous character, stating, "There were times when my daughters asked me how many people I would kill in each of my roles." He continued, "Recently, the reaction of my youngest daughter, who is in her second year of middle school, has changed. When Jung Woong-in asked about villainous roles, his daughter countered with 'Why?' and responded that he takes on such roles because he acts well. Seeing his daughter's reaction made him feel a sense of pride as an actor."
