Hello? Are you still there? I know right… Woo-ah-oh x 1000!!! If you are wondering which was the hotel where he did the photo shoot, it’s called “The Mulia” and it’s in Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia. Their website is HERE. It is such a beautiful place! It is not expensive to go there… it has the price of middle of the line hotel in New York City! But of course there is airfare to get there from my side of the world to consider!…
This is a video:
I just hope that when Jung Il-woo went there he had at least a few days to relax and enjoy the place!
Bali… you are on my list now… with some good luck I can roll on the same bed Jung Il-woo did his photo shoot on! And dream away! Yeah… I need a cold shower, no! more like a freezing one!
On another complete note… “DRAMAFEVER”, the Biggest K-drama App in the USA, and the one that I would use to watch all Jung Il-woo dramas has closed doors! I didn’t know it was owned by Warner Brothers…well, it seems that the licenses were becoming too expensive for them. I’m sad to see them go as they were the best. They had all of Jung Il-woo’s dramas!
I think that what is happening too is that new K-drama Apps are sprouting that come directly from the Korean companies that make the dramas, and they want to obviously get all their money directly… not a percentage. It will be interesting to see what happens next. Kocowa TV is one of these, it came out recently and it is a joint venture between KBS, MBC and SBS. Rakuten Viki is the second biggest K-drama App in the USA and they just came out with a Viki/Kocowa TV Plus Pass… so I guess I’ll be doing this!
Still… I will miss all the great articles and videos of Dramafever though!
Jung Il-woo travelled to Bali in October of 2014 for a Photo Shoot. He enjoyed gorgeous days swimming and resting after his hard work in “The Night Watchman’s Journal.” The photos and a video were released in late November. There are a lot of photos in this photo shoot. This is why I decided to break it up into three parts. Let’s enjoy it slowly shall we?!
Photo Cr. BNT International and jungilwoo.com The photographs chosen bear the bnt International logo. The photographer was: Choi Seung Gwan. Bravo!!!
I will post what I call the selected ones first, meaning the ones bearing the BNT International logo, and then the rest. You will also see some Behind the Scenes takes of Jung Il-woo enjoying himself or getting ready for the photo shoot.
This is the video… I’ve watched so many times! It is so exquisite!!! Cr. BNT International
Jung II-woo posted a lot about his Korean Fan Meet in 2014. Jung Il-woo was both very excited but also very nervous about this Fan Meet, se he prepared a lot! I’m going to use his own writing for Starcast and I will add in other photos and videos he posted in Jung Il-woo.com (and others from media and fans) that also illustrate those moments he is talking about.

Sweet fresh cream would be okay since my coffee would be bitter, right? Lala~
Actually, I went to buy a cake myself in the morning today by thinking that I should care about it although I’m busy.

Customer that picks no. 2 Americano, I will give a light hug as a basic coffee~ For café latte, I will sweetly kiss the back of your hand! For café mocha, I will hug you at the back!
The corner of finding the ideal type followed.
I made fans astonished by shaping my ideal type imposingly even in front of fans…. Can I be so honest? Shall I find whether there is my ideal type here too? Did I eat sly fruit?
Actually, my ideal type came here today.
At the announcement that my actual ideal type lady came behind the stage, the audiences made noises instantly!
Hello, my ideal type~
Hello. This is my ideal type, Rang E, Kang Ji Woo.
This is Rang E, a child actress called Kang Ji Woo that acted in ‘The Night Watchman’ with me. I presented acting of the best scenes in ‘The Night Watchman’ with Rang E and gave her school bag and school supplies that I chose myself for her who will enter elementary school next year~ I made fans up and down~!
This is the highlight of the fan meeting event~ The talk concert time! Cool talk time with Jung il woo!
Fans disarmed Jung il woo with creative questions such as ‘What should I do to marry you, obba?’ ‘Jung il woo, do you save money?’ ‘When until are you going to put up your hair?’, etc. They were so great-
Then I shouted out. The most regrettable moment?
“This very moment, this corner”~
The first part already ended since time flew when I decided to play really.
The time when I started to be sad…
The second part started with totally different scene mood.
Is it ‘Saturday. Is. Fun: I Am a Singer!’?
This is me all-killing women’s hearts by proposing.
I prepared a proposal for my girl?! Girls’ hearts shook here and there at Jung il woo’s one hand gesture~
Special love song, ‘John Lennon – Oh My Love’ was presented at the scene.
Sweet song and hug!
This is the song he sang… I could not find it by him…
I, the manner guy, guided a fan to her seat.
Then I made a sensitive joke.
‘We broke up in 5 minutes…ㅜㅜ’
I don’t miss you anymore~ I don’t miss you~ I even forgot about loving you~ I even sang ‘Rain and You’… Fans got goose bumps.- Is performing this song naturally a strategy or just a coincidence?
The last song made fans all love me~ Because you’re my woman! Because you’re my woman~ I will call you honey!
Goodbye everyone~ This is the end of Jung il woo band concert! I was so happy! Goodbye~~~~~
When I tried to leave the precious moment in a group picture! My dear appeared…!
Jung AU! This is my only sister, Jung AU that fans gave to me as a present. She appeared suddenly expressing, ‘Obba, let’s take pictures together’!
Update July 27, 2019. Just found these:
I really say goodbye now. It really took a long time until we met…. How was today? Did you have fun? I played lots of jokes in order to make you excited and I sang many songs… Don’t rumor it somewhere~
Let’s make more good memories together from now on. We should really have Dinner Show, right? I will greet again with good piece. Let’s meet soon! I love you. Chu~!

I just found these tweets from Kang Ji-woo’s mom after she opened Il-woo’s gifts. In it she says:
# 정일우 (Chung · il) When my older brother is a fan meeting, he gave me a surprise as Ji-u entered elementary school next year! School bags and school supplies that he chose directly. Until the letter to the clothes autograph! I am thankful to Ji Woo ^ ^ I have seen over and over even when I came home!
This is another Starcast article written by our beloved Oppa! Here you will delight as he makes what he calls Jung Il-woo Coffee!
Autumn is a season good to blame on its weather! These days are good to blame that mind of wanting to go on a journey, being annoyed with everything suddenly, and happy things are all due to ‘autumn’~ It would actually feel like heaven even if one has time to drink a cup of coffee by sitting at an outdoor terrace of a café at days like this.
Angel Jung il-woo, who has no wings, has prepared a special autumn present in order to send you guys to heaven.
We notice that Jung il woo-in-us coffee (?) is opening~ Let’s head for that place where smell of roasted coffee beans that greets our nose is wafted with the autumn wind smell~
What is your name?
Hello? I’m fragrant ‘coffee bean’ that Jung il woo brought.
So called, ‘Fragrant coffee bean that Jung il woo brought!’ Jung il woo, who conveys gratitude and love toward fans mentioning them without missing a single time in interviews and who diligently prepares places and events for fans since he flows with love toward fans, has prepared another surprise event this time. Mother bird’s mind of wanting to feed delicious coffee to baby bird, so called ‘Fragrant coffee bean that Jung il woo brought!’, the ‘Jung il woo-in-us coffee’!
Now~ Shall we start? Where is this place? This is at a favorite café that is always visited a lot when I pass by. This is a precious place where I became barista Jung by roasting coffee beans by myself after asking the boss since I fell in love with the coffee’s taste and image of making coffee by oneself when I came into this place by getting lured by the scent while I was finding a near café to my house.
I’m roasting coffee beans hard by casting a spell of making it more delicious and deeper as much as I’ve prepared for the present fragrantly and aromatically~ Since I’m a beginner whose body doesn’t follow as like my professional mind, it was hard to roast so much coffee beans at once.
I’m starting to prepare opening ‘Jung il woo-in-us coffee’! My hands are busily moving without break time since I have decided to do everything all by myself even from roasting coffee beans and brewing coffee. My fans would already know that I like coffee over alcohol, quiet café over noisy places and drink coffee by daydreaming. So I can confidently say that leave the delicious coffee to me since person that have drunk a lot of it knows it well.
Love for coffee as much as I take coffee set in order to brew drip coffee even when I go on a journey is big as my mind toward fans. I drink your love and a cup of coffee IV when I am tired since those are vitamins in my life~
Now, shall I… Um~ Um… It’s not done yet^^;; I will roast it more.
Oh, it smells of coffee beans now.
Yes, this is it! It’s done!
I’m preparing to carefully transfer the well-roasted coffee beans!
This is the repeated making process of coffee beans in order to roast coffee beans in quantity although the amount looks small in the picture~ This was the day that I got intoxicated in the coffee scent!
But what kind of event is it? Of course, it’s present for fans!
Fans that come up in my mind even when I see things that I like as mother bird and baby bird does, we’re solos but we’re not alone! This is a present that I prepared by hoping that you guys would end a warm autumn with roasted coffee beans that I roasted fragrantly and aromatically within the precious time accompanied by you!
One spoon of coffee beans and one spoon of my love~
Taste of food is made by hands~ Beware of your pounding hearts since Jung il woo’s love is contained in those coffee beans one by one.
Packaging is completed~
Please store this present well. We’re going to meet after 10 days later.
Special spinoff~
Since I’ve made delicious coffee beans, I will drink coffee which barista Jung has made first!
Careful~ careful~ by using wrist snap~ How do you think about my posture?
Did I drink coffee that was made difficulty like this as like water in the meanwhile? ^^; I should drink it more fragrantly from now on. Become more delicious and delicious~ Jung il woo-in-us coffee~
Tada- It’s completed. Heart is pounding. Coffee which is tasted with scent first. Hum~
It’s so great! How can it be so aromatic and fragrant although I made it?

If I only liked coffee! … Well, I may drink a cup just because you made it! Or even better… I can just watch you making it… and drinking it! 🙂
Hanyang University Social Service Group with Chairman Kim Yong-soo held a ceremony to help the underprivileged in Seongdong-gu, Seoul. The event included actors Jeong Il-woo and Choi Ji-jin, 200 foreign students on campus, other faculty and students, and members of the Seongdong-gu General Social Welfare Center.
Hanyang University said, “We will deliver 10kg of kimchi (per household) to 600 households in Seongdong-gu.
Today I celebrate two years of loving Jung II-woo. I am celebrating in various ways, one is by changing the look of all me media accounts for the autumn. Do you like it?
Around this time two years ago, I saw Jung Il-woo as Prince Yang for the first time in “The Moon that embraces the Sun.” It has been such a wonderful journey seeing his dramas and researching and reading about him and all he does, seeing him grow as an actor and a person… and what a gem of a person he is! As I start my third year, I look forward to being a fan in real time with his work and life and continue to do my best to support him. I am so thankful that he came into my life. He makes me feel so happy! This song describes exactly how he makes me feel:
Loving You Is Easy
Performed by: Sarah McLachlan
Loving you is easy, loving you is wondrous and pure
I shout it from the roof tops
How long must I wait ’til I see your smile
Might of been the moonlight
Caught up in the sparkle in your eyes
So we gotta know I should go slow
But it’s not in me to wait
‘Cause I’m alive I’m on fire
Shine like a star burst into the sky
Oh the fury of desire
You burn so bright electrify
You light me up you take me higher
I’ve been down a long road
And I’ve become a stranger to myself
Digging in my heels and hoping time
Might be kinder if I wait it out
Nothing came from wondering
And I became so small and insecure
Didn’t know the cost of all I lost
Until I found it fresh and new
(Again with you)
And I’m on fire
Shine like a star burst into the sky
Oh the fury of desire
You burn so bright electrify
You light me up you take me higher
Loving you is easy
Loving you is wondrous and pure
I shout it from the roof tops
How long must I wait ’til I see your smile

[Asia Economy STM Kim Eun Ae] Most of the words surrounding him is praise, and he is a kind man. If you choose the trademark, smile that is innocent. However, when facing this face, a face that I did not know until now was revealed.
“You have to empty your mind to fill it up,” he said, glaring his eyes. Only people who have never been confident and have tried so hard have never been able to do so.
– I was surprised to hear that I was detained in China a while ago. The manager lost my visa to me and the staff. So I did not get on the plane. I went to the airport and found out about it. It ‘s my mistake. I’m sorry I missed my schedule.
– Recently MBC ‘Night Watcher’ was popular. What was the shooting atmosphere? The audience was good and the staff was good. It was so nice to leave the audience atmosphere. I filmed fun and fun. But if you had a hard time, did you spend a lot of nights? haha.
– Most of the actors who breathed together were juniors. I would have been a senior. I did not have anything like that. All of them are colleagues who are acting. I do not want to be late for my appointment because my rule, principle, is to keep it good. The atmosphere of the film was important, but I did not have to take it because I was an older man.
– Drama shooting is so fast, I think it will be a lot of physical consumption. Do you have a special fitness management trick? I can not remember how many physical strengths have already been in the past and how many times I have met Ringer. The problem is no time for Ringer. I did not just take a picture, but I also had a schedule of OST recording, picture, advertisement and so on. And you have to watch the script. These things were repetitive. It was so hard to leap six nights a week. I was stuck and I wanted to concentrate and focus more on this.
– Then I could have rested when I was detained in China. Haha. Would not it be an unwanted break? haha. I did not know, so I suddenly made a reservation at the hotel.
– ‘Night viewers’ genre is a fusion drama, CG has been used a lot. At first, did not these parts become strange or worried? I wanted to do it. It was good just to do this work after leaving the audience rating like this. I did not care about audience ratings at all. I liked CG too. I was really happy doing this work.
– I think I got naked in this work. Do you think that you have grown up again as an actor? haha. I’ve heard a lot about men getting hurt.
– Since debut, I’ve been following a modifier called ” Of course, it is a praise, but can the image be limited? Gosh. Thank you. It depends on what role you play. This time I showed my new look.
– You participated in the OST as well. Do you usually sing well? I like singing but I am wrong. I love listening too. The only way to relieve stress is to run it out of the car. I like pops, I like rocks, and every time I’m wrong. I hear a lot of sad ballads and listen to classical music.
– Who is your favorite artist? I like Rodriguez, Lana Del Rey, Gorillaz in the movie ‘Seeking For Sugar Man’. John Lennon and Marty Robbins are also favorite singer. I like singers of various genres. My favorite actor is River Phoenix and Changgukyoung both live a short life.
– Do you also like the movie directed by Wang Ga-wi, the director of Changguk? Actually it is not my preference. The visual quality is very good, but it is not the favorite genre. I have worked well with works such as’ Love Me Yifeuda ‘,’ Dreamers’, ‘Closer’, ‘
– But the director ‘s movie’ My Love ‘, which has appeared in the past, is a calm style. My acting likes acting like that. I do not like seeing things like that. I want to smoke acting power. I’ve been doing a lot of things for a while, but I think that there are a lot of people who say that the smoke does not fit well.
– Have you ever played such a thing in a drama? I do not know. “The late-night appearance” I want to show you such things.
– It’s been a long time, but I’m looking for a way to get out of the “High Kick” image, and that’s when the character is bright. But I think it’s good to have many images. It feels so important. There is a representative work. I heard somewhere that the actor had to thank for the masterpiece. I have a few, so thank you.
– What is your favorite masterpiece? I do not know. Many people have different tastes. I talk about ‘High Kick without a hitch’ most of the time and I think so, but ‘Night viewers’ can also be a masterpiece. There are also people who talk about ’49 days’ and also talk about ‘goodbye ramen shop’. I like everything.
– Do you have a role to play in the next piece? But I think I can empty the learning mind to empty it. I’m always practicing like that. ‘I want to do something. I want to do something. ‘ I always practice to empty my mind at all times.
– Is that what you want? Popular, do not rate the audience ratings? I really do not mind. It’s popular or ratings. So I am immersed in the character. I do not know how to get out of it, but the way I’m immersed in the characters seems to help me to concentrate on acting without doing my best.
– Then do not you check the ratings? I do not see anyone. That’s all I do. I feel good, it’s bad, and I focus on it.
I’m an actor in 10 years already 10 years. cadet.
– It seems like it is not easy to have one thing for a long time, but everything seems like that. Five years and ten years. I think that everything can be successful if I stay for three years. No job is easy job. The person who stood for more than three years is wonderful. I think one person is a master for 10 years.
Have you ever regretted or been skeptical as you walked your way to the actor for 10 years? Never regret or skepticism. I just felt it was hard. There was no such thing as ‘why not’. From my childhood, I thought that the man who knew I would be responsible for what I chose was cool. I have a job I chose and I have a sense of responsibility for fans who have been there for me for nearly a decade. I have a lot of self – esteem. I think it’s more and more grown up and growing as things get stacked up.

Dark paradise… no! … his paradise is full of light!
Actor Jung Yi always shows a strong pride on his work, but in the case of a recently written MBC drama “Night Police Diary”, he showed a more vivid affection. I said that this work is a work that made me confident. It was a drama with good grades. A man named Lee Lin who did not descend from the position of the 1st ranking audience rating on TV, above all, shows various faces as well as a wide spectrum of emotions, and various actors of Jung Yi It is because it became a case to prove again the possibility. That’s why he has enough qualification to feel proud of himself.
What kind of face will Jeong il come back after “night guard diary”? Next year is my debut 10 years. Although it is not as easy as words to become an actor who always wanted to know more the next time for a long time, Jung Il got through his ninth year, steadily stretching his charm, 2015 It is progressing towards a special year called the tenth anniversary of debut in the year.
I asked about the passion of such a special actor.
Q. How did you spend after finishing the drama “Night Police Diary”?
Jeong Il: Actually, I have no spirit yet. After the drama ended, we went on a trip to Sokcho with the staff and traveled with friends on Jeju Island, and I’m busy lately getting an interview and I am sending one day a day.
Q. It seems that he had traveled as usual with old friends when the drama ended. Have you had time to get out of Lee Lin through the trip?
Jung Il: When I take a historical drama by all means I feel that I moved in space. It is a work that I took very enthusiasticly above all, but everything disappears and it is empty. Lee Lin is nostalgic too.
Q. There seems to be a mind filled with such unsatisfactory because it should have never missed the viewer’s ranking first place.
Jung · Il: We did not think audience ratings from the beginning of the drama. It was an idea that I wanted to finish this work until the end, I began without considering the end. But I had good results and my heart was full. When I read the first script, I talked about the fact that the last crash of today is satisfied, but it is a work that looks like that. It was a pleasant result.
It is.
Q. “Night police diary” was fresh in genre, and was also new in that it gathered young actors together among fresh genres than anything else. Oh, that’s why. It was felt that the young actors were close together.
Jung Il: Apparently younger actors had to capture the center compared to other dramas, and they could not solve the string of tension during shooting. I went out to the workplace first and kept the basic things well. More than anything, I took pictures of each other brightly and happily, so I think the atmosphere was good.
Q. According to what I heard, it seems that Jung Il helped Mr. Chung I in a good atmosphere. Especially Ko Seong-hee, who first challenges the historical drama, received great support from Jeon Il.
Jung Il: Rather, I was saved a lot. I think that it is most important to match breathing when acting, but having a lot of talks with actors such as Yunho, Ko Seong Hee, So Ye Ji, and so on helped a lot . Drama seems to have flowed well as we talked about the part that I missed.
Q. What kind of meaning does such a drama “Night Police Diary” remain in Jung Il, individuals?
Jung Il: It is a work that made me confident. When starting this drama, it was my goal to perform authentic acting. While capturing the character and drama, I was hoping to show authentic acting without releasing that string to the end, I am very happy to be able to keep that point.
Q. Among them, if there is a remarkable name scene.
Jeong Il: There are scenes in which Lee Lin is frowned after Grandma hits the sword in many scenes that are inevitably memorable. In addition, if you add another, the scene that became obsessed with the spirit and became another Lee Lin remains in memory.
Q. In addition, it seems that the growth of character Lee Lin showed up with a pretty impressive performance.
Jung Il: I kept growing in mind since I keep my character. If you look at the drama you can miss the busy time of shooting. So, I calculated it thoroughly from the beginning, but it seems that such a thing went well. Even though Lee Lin somewhat playfully at the beginning of the game, I tried not to lose the weight of the prince. I think that I caught the center.
Q. However, I was physically very difficult. Especially when asking actors “Night Police Diary”, they said that everyone would have had the hardest job.
Jung Il: It was hard work (laugh). The drama takes 3 to 4 months, but it clearly appears on the screen unprotected. However, the results will remain unchanged. So I abandon sleep. I tried hard so hard not to leave any regrets later.
Q. I was told that there was a lot of action scenes and it was an atmosphere that encourages each other not to get hurt. Especially when I scratched around the eyes at the time of the last shooting, I fought a fighting spirit to shoot quickly.
Jung Il: I also had many injuries in shooting, but Yuno-senpai also got injured. Action All the actors were injured a lot. There are also many things being commonplace, but we had to prepare a lot beforehand so as not to damage the drama, we tried to do so.
Q. It’s been my 9th year debut this year. Next year will be filled with ten years, but it seems to make me feel different again.
Jung Il: Time has so much flowed. I do not know yet a lot and there are many inadequacies, but at this time, the most appreciated is that there are fans who support me and support me. I was also responsible for the fans who saw me for nine years. The existence of fans is more useful when acting. Although it is often difficult to take a drama, I think about my fans and I am doing my best.
Q. The domestic fan layer is quite thick, but it is also popular in China. In the 2014 Cosmo Beauty Awards held in Shanghai this time, I also won the Forever Young Icon male star prize for Korean national team.
Jeong Il: I was truly grateful to receive a prize.
Q. Does Chon · Il have such a problem that I want to do first?
Jung Il: There are many things I want to do. However, since an actor is usually open, I can put something new, I think I will empty my heart, rather than deciding what I want to do. Then it seems to be useful when doing the next work. For now, I would like to try romantic comedies, or even dark characters at all.
Q. Finally, let’s look back over the time passed. What is the most special work left in my current work?
Jeon · Il: “Deeply awesome high kick” which is a debut work is left in the most memorable. I made a debut, but it was a work that was loved so much that I was able to let you know the name of Jung Yi. Also, “My deadline is 49 days” is also important. There are no fingers that do not hurt by ten fingers (Note: meaning that even if there are many children, their children are all cute), but I will try hard to keep better works from now on.
When I say Jung Il (27), I have an innocent look and a lively impression, but it is the actor of the eighth year of my debut. Looking at his filmography gently, he gives the impression that he challenged a role with diverse genres and other colors, as well as a single character.
The MBC monthly fire drama “Night Police Diary” that ended on the 21st of last month also played a part in the diversity of Jung Il’s characters. He said that he does not choose a genre when choosing a work, he said, “There has never been a genre such as” Night Police Diary “in Korea yet, is not it challenging?”
Jung Iil met the THE FACT interviewers at the café in Shinshin-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and ended the broadcasting of the “night watchman’s diary” and the impression of the actor and the story against the human being Jung Yi, I confided to.
He had a cold and the condition was not good, but his complexion grew bright with a filled heart that he finished the work without any problems.
“I do not realize that it is so because it is a drama that I had not thought of the end even though it was a drama that many people took while struggling, but achieved with a good result There is a sense.The character itself is very difficult and I was prepared to revive well, but many people have liked Lee Rin and have been absorbed in the drama, so I feel a sense of accomplishment. “
Lee Lin underwritten by Jung Il is a legitimate prince, but he is deprived of the throne by his mother-in-law brother, Kim Hun-su, who always feels a threat positively. So, it is a life that you have to live while watching your elder brother’s complexion. In addition to that, he also had the ability to see a ghost and communicated with the spirit three Minister of the Tun (Ko · chan Sook), Lee Sei-chan, Lani (Kang Ji Woo), and saved the country.
“Three spirits and Kim Huon had the most breathing, with Kim Hunsu a subtle emotional intersection of an uneasy brother who does not know when to steal his king’s seat with the younger brother of the prince It was good when acting, it was really sad when Kisan gives up the throne while crying at the final round. “
“Night police diary” incorporates the setting of seeing ghosts, and the success of Lee Rin, against Saddam (Kim Seong-oo) who uses evil spirits. In the battle scene, a future-oriented technique (?) Using magic and spells was exchanged. The actors actually had to perform acting without CG at the shooting site, so the related episodes did not come out.
“In order to perform an action act while casting a spell such as” destroyed “wave boundary” in the play, limbs shrunk by too much polum. Yuno had the voice ‘turned inside out’. At first it was awkward, but I adapted later. “
He wears Korean clothes three times, “Night police diary”, following “Return of Iljimae” “Moon embracing the sun”. As an actor in her twenties, he has a lot of experiences in the period drama genre. Indeed it has become an attraction of the era drama and the hanbok.
“I think that Korean clothes look good on this (laughs) This time, my mother made a few Korean clothes directly and it was more special. What is the know-how of the third historical acting? It is not know-how of acting, I noticed a way to survive on the scene, how to wear clothes in hot and cold weather, how to keep the condition, we taught all Yuno “
While acting as an actor, Jung Il confessed that he experienced many slumps. Sometimes my health has not been good because I have not left home for two months. He was so “a night guard diary” became a medicine that can break down the slump.
“We got elasticity as” Night Police Diary. “It was a burden because it was a title role from the beginning, but I was confident that I finished my work successfully and became a force to continue the next work I guess. “
It is “an actor who works like a cow” who worried about the next work already though it has not been several days since the work finished. Hope for the next work was also clear. Recently I’m saying that I’d like to serve as a serious and dark character as opposed to many ‘romantic comedies’. He also mentioned ‘Son Ye Jin for the other actor.
“Personally I really like the acting that Son Ye Jin in the movie” My head in the midst of a head “, I’m going to have a lot of acting recently my seniors were” up “(UP), but it would be nice to perform romance with. Is your older sister (older) easy? Age does not matter. “
In the field of entertainment where recent actors are active actively, they did not show greed. However, I carefully sent an interesting look to MBC “Infinitely Challenge” and SBS “Room Mate”.
“I’d like to get out anytime so I always want to challenge” infinitely challenging “because I’m close to my brothers. (Laugh) I thought it was interesting to see” roommate. “By the way, Because I am too funny and not interesting, I think that it is better not to perform entertainment appearance. “
He showed greater greed to leave a certain footprint on the actor’s way.
“I approached the debut ten years now, but I am not impatient, I am satisfied with the idea that I can do more diverse acts in my thirties and I am excited about expectations. I want to be remembered as an actor ” This work is an actor who seems to want Jung · Il to do it ‘, it is an actor who seems to want this character to become Jung · Il’ because it is important to be recognized in acting. “

The interview goes with the very first photos of the top. When I read he had a cold, I went back to see his beautiful face more in detail…and you can tell his eyes are a bit red in some of the photos, and there is a bit of puffiness under his eyes… he looks tired. I have a cold right now and I am in absolute awe how he can have a photo shoot! When I have a cold… that’s the last thing I’d like…to have someone take photos of me! You are extraordinary Mr. Woo, my hat is off to you… well my hood. It will only be for a sec as I need to keep my head warm! Ah Ah Ahhhchoooooo!
¡Salud! It’s that I want right now! And all I wish to all of you!

Actor Jung Il Woo Talks Taking Lead through His Third Sageuk
With three sageuks, he has filled his filmography with various projects as he enters 9th year of acting. It′s the result that has come from hard work. Drama The Night Watchman’s Journal ended with a happy ending. Taking on the role of ghost-seeing prince Lee Rin, Jung Il Woo became king in the end, making his dream and love come true. The past four months were not easy for Jung Il Woo. Not only did he suffer injuries from action scenes but he also had to fight against lack of sleep due to straining schedules. He said, “I had to film by pinching my thighs. Filming itself was a mental challenge.” The evidence of Jung Il Woo’s consistent efforts were shown through the project. Debuting with the film The World of Silence in 2006, Jung Il Woo acted out various characters in Highkick, The Return of Iljimae, 49 Days, Flower Boy Ramen Shop, Moon Embracing the Sun, Golden Rainbow and more, expanding his acting spectrum and made another leap through this project.
Q&A with Jung Il Woo
# How have you been since the drama ended?
“I’ve been keeping myself busy. I visited Jeju island and traveled to Sokcho with the production team and cast of The Night Watchman’s Journal. I have a tight schedule, including overseas activities and interviews.”
#How do you feel? Does it feel like the project is over?
“In a way it feels like everything disappeared all of a sudden. I think modern pieces definitely linger in my mind longer. Modern dramas are about things that might happen in real life and I wear modern clothes so sometimes I cannot easily get out of it even when it’s over. On the other hand, when I film a historical piece I feel like I travel to the past using a time machine. It feels empty once it’s over.”
# It was a journey of four months, which is not short.
“I filmed by poured in my everything for four months. It would be a lie if I say I didn’t get drained of energy. I think it’s time for healing.”
# It must have been physically challenging?
“I really had to act by pinching my thighs (laughter). No matter how physically fit you are, your concentration level falls if you act without sleeping for six nights. There were times when I had to stay up all night, take a shower and go back to filming. I remember fighting myself by pinching my thighs. I fiercely worked hard in order to not lose my consciousness.”
# Is there a reason you prefer fantasy-related genres?
“I think they suit me well. The Moon Embracing the Sun was a fusion sageuk and 49 Days also included fantasy elements. When I work on such projects, I feel like I’m in a game. I felt the same when I was trying to catch the monster serpent in The Night Watchman’s Journal. (laughter)”
# Was there anything tough about acting out a character who can see ghosts?
“It was a character that went through changes as he became a ‘night watchman.’ It was hard catching ghosts in every episode. The ghost appearances meant I had to film all through the night. This is the first time I had such a tough time filming.”
# Did you get injured while filming action scenes?
“I was injured everywhere including my face, feet and hands. I had to rush to the hospital once while filming an action scene. Although I have scars everywhere, I think of them as scars of honor.”
# You’ve filmed three sageuks already. As an actor, what is so charming about sageuks?
“It a genre that portrays very delicate line of speech and emotions. Of course if differs by characters but I think sageuk characters have charms that differentiate them from others.”
# Did you have a large responsibility as the lead actor, leading your junior actors?
“That’s what I was careful about. In my case, I always ask, ‘What do you think?’ as I try to adjust myself according to the others. Even though I’m sunbae, the hubae actors have certain characters and acting direction in their mind, so I tried to act by respecting that. Acting has no answer so it’s hard to say you can teach someone and since there is no answer, it’s always difficult.”
# You’ve proven yourself as a trustworthy actor.
“Is that right? I’m still lacking and have a long way to go but I was just lucky. Time goes by really quickly. I will be 30 soon.”
# You’re entering your 9th year of acting already.
“That’s right. The director tells me to act however I like since I’ve acted for almost 10 years. He really didn’t gave me any direction until the end and respected my acting style. I think I was able to concentrate more because I felt like he had his trust in me.”
# Has anything improved compared to before in terms of acting?
“If I was in the process of finding my color before, I’m definitely more relaxed now. I personally feel like I’ve improved in terms of pronunciation and vocalization.
# Finally, is there anything else you want to say?
“I will be wrapping up this year with an Asia tour. I would like to greet you with my next project without taking a long break. I don’t know which project I will be working on yet but I’ve narrowed it down to either romantic comedy or a completely dark character. Please continue to show your support for actor Jung Il Woo’s growth.”
An event, an entertainment industry where an accident happens like everyday. Among them, if actively acting as an actor of 10 years without any accident, it can be said that his life is quite successful. It is a story of Jung Il who emerged as an actor who can take full responsibility for one work by removing the modifier “Star of the star”.
In the fusion period drama “The Night Watchman’s Journal.” mixed action and fantasy, starring actors who had little experience of acting, except for Jung Il, served as an inexperienced viewer. Jung Il so far was praised as the only actor who is absorbed in drama during the drama airing period.
Jung · Il said, “Before the coach starts,” You believe it because you are the 10th year actor. Although I did not follow the direction (do not do it because I do not do it, do your best, try to play) “, I really do not do it to the end.Although there were many troubles with a difficult character, the director” good “,” Do it! “I told you to guide me and I think that I finished off the work well,” sighed a sigh of relief.
The reason why the director did not give direction to Jung Il is because he trusted his performance so much that he took the lead of his previous work “Golden Rainbow” and quickly chose him to star in “The Night Watchman’s Journal.” is there. Not only that, Jung Il was well equipped with basic matters such as promises of time, and because he was an actor who wished to penetrate works and characters, he saw such honesty and passion in the eyes of the director .
Jung Il said, “Is not the work I played all the time left, so when I appear in a work, I can not put in other jobs as much as possible except seeing the script of filming. I always grab the character while looking at the script, so why is that for those reasons? It is for those who do not do everything by slobbing when the drama is over and resting. “
The work that saw the youth star Chung · I again was the drama ” 49 days” (2011) which was aired in 2011. Jung Il celebrates “49 days as a memorable work with each interview, although it was not a starring in this work, but harmonized with the works with actors including Lee Yo Won, Ikemen scheduler We expanded the range of performance with custom-made clothes’ character called so called, and received the evaluation that the potential was accepted at the same time. Since then, I went through “Flower Boy Ramen Shop” (2011), “Moon embracing the Sun” (2012), “Golden Rainbow” (2013), while performing performance to the “The Night Watchman’s Journal.” with Jung Il I began to see again.
He said, “While doing a “The Night Watchman’s Journal.”, I got a lot of stories saying that my performance is good, a lot of power, a sense of responsibility, I felt responsibility, and my attitude towards work changed, too much more than anything and confidence It was a work that was very influenced. “
When I made a debut with “Unstoppable High Kick” (2006), I was concerned about the reason why Jung Il, who was said to be a youthful rising star, totally different actor for the first time in 3 or 4 years. As soon as the question was over, he said that there was a chance to grow.
“I grew up quietly without experiencing hardships so far, but my grandmother died before I made ” Golden rainbow. ” It was a great shock. The biggest thing is “Golden Rainbow” and I was not feeling well. I had no motivation for life and it was very panic for more than two months. I did not know when people would die, but as an actor I thought I had to work harder when I was young and active. After experiencing pain the eyes to see the world, the attitude to contact people has changed. Even just this work can be done, I thanked him, so I thought that I had to pour everything. So, after I started”The Night Watchman’s Journal.” I acted exclusively with only thinking acting without thinking anything. “
Through this work, Jung Il showed us the possibility of starring in the mini series, proved himself that both genre and character are all digestible actors. Is it because of that? I felt that Jung Il’s acting transformation started from Him.
He says, “By all means there are many restrictions in the genre, and even though the early stage is different, it will change again in the second half. Even if that is not the case, we are considering a lot of movies in the next work and also worry about playing And one of the things that changed a lot about me was that I quit smoking 7 months ago. It seems that my voice is getting better as I quit smoking but I have no pleasure in my life (lol) Drama When I was doing, I was worried that I would smoke again because I received a lot of stress, but the idea of tobacco did not come out, ” he told about future plans and changes with jokes.
After the work was finished, the era when it was natural to meet with the newsmen and interview was over. As it is troubled if there is no work, the time has come for us not to interview for the next schedule for the overseas schedule. Even in unusual practice Jung Il met with multiple media and interviewed each time the work ended. As a joke asked, “What is the reason for interviewing every time?” Jung Il responded as to why he should listen to the obvious thing.
Chung Il said, “While writing the drama, the reporter wrote the work and the articles of the actors, I think the interview is courtesy to reporters, and while working in the tenth year Many reporters who became familiar with it, please talk about my acting and work, I would like to know how I saw it. “
On this day, the sixth interview with Jung Il was more impressive than any time. Every time I saw the situation, the situation was different, the characters in the work were different, and the feeling for him was different every time. This time I met a friend I contact once a year, and I felt strongly that I talked with my friends without hesitation. Among them, did he discover his enthusiasm for performance that can not be expressed by sentences and his objective Jung Il, which is a solid objective? I want to cheer for actor Jung Yi from my heart.
“It would be nice to be an actor qualified as an actor, since becoming old enough to bear the responsibility as a human being, I feel like I should be a person who is responsible for what I have chosen, regardless of the work The fans who have been doing the same for nine years was also about to appreciate since I used to like me before, but from now on I have a lot of sense of responsibility to fans, I want to show off good works. “
