[Magazine] @ Star1 September 2015 issue – Twenty nine, Ji Chang Wook

 

 

There are people who make you feel happy just by being with them. Actor Ji Chang Wook is a cheerful man who provides good energy to the people around him. Even when meeting him for the first time, he is a “multi-talented man†who makes you feel comfortable like you’ve been friends for 10 years. As he has been travelling around the provinces to film the movie “Fabricated Cityâ€, Ji Chang Wook laughs heartily, saying it has been a long time since he “came up to Seoulâ€. We present you an interesting interview that dramatically unravels the eight years of his acting career. 

 

Q: How was the photo shoot today?

Firstly, it was very hot. The weather is good but the venue was (so hot it felt) like as if I had gone to Bali in Indonesia (laughs). Haha.

 

Q: Do you usually have a lot of interest in accessories?

I often wear bracelets. Just like wearing socks and clothes, I will naturally wear (bracelets) when I go out.

 

Q: Your popularity overseas is huge. Seeing pictures of you at the airport or fan meetings, you are surrounded by fans and Ji Chang Wook cannot be seen. 

MBC’s “Empress Ki†and KBS’ “Healer†were well-received overseas so many fans will show up when I go to airports overseas. I’m really thankful when I see that. I’m also amazed about how they knew (my flight schedule) and came. So if possible, I wish to look at every fan in the eye and greet them one by one and sign autographs for them, but it gets very chaotic once I appear so that isn’t possible. I’m always sorry about that.

 

Q: Is there a fan who is the most memorable?

Rather than fans who are memorable, there are fans who make me worried. There are some fans who will follow me from the airport and I’m very worried about them. Because it’s very dangerous.

 

Q: I heard the ticketing for your July birthday fan meeting was like a war. All the seats were sold out within one minute.

I held the fan meeting for 1,200 people, but the tickets sold out faster than expected and even I was surprised. Usually there will be many things to prepare when I hold a fan meeting, but this time I just invited my close friends as guests and we sang and played together. Just like a birthday party with friends (laughs).

 

Q: Close friend? Who did you call?

2Bic’s Jun Hyung.

 

Q: How did you get close to Jun Hyung?

We met for the first time when we went to the same hair salon. I’m listen to 2Bic’s songs and I became big fan of them so I suggested that we have a meal together. We immediately became closer after the meal. I found out that we are both of the same age. Jun Hyung, (Seo) In Guk, and a neighbourhood brother we know…the four of us get along very well.

 

 

Q: Oh~ that’s a rather unexpected combination.

I got to know Seo In Guk thanks to Jun Hyung. Our neighbourhood brother is really a hyung we know in the neighbourhood (laughs). Even I think this is an amazing combination. Our assembly place is always the noraebang (*a place where you sing karaoke). Because everyone can sing very well, so it is really fun when we go to the noraebang. It always feels like we are holding a concert.

 

Q: Do you all also snatch songs in between?

Of course. In between, we will interrupt or request for the second verse. Since I’m not a singer, I will pass the high pitch sections to Jun Hyung or In Guk. Advanced techniques should be handled by the singers. Yesterday, In Guk said he finally got to rest after a long time and suggested going to the noraebang together so we went.

 

Q: Not too long ago, you also appeared on the Chinese variety show “Happy Camp†that only top Hallyu stars appear in. How was it?

That variety programme is extremely popular in China. So when I heard the news about my casting, I felt a bit pressured. I’m not the kind who is suitable for variety, neither am I interesting. But fortunately, the emcees treated me kindly so I think I overcame it naturally.

 

Q: You should also appear frequently on Korean variety shows. There are many things about Ji Chang Wook that we are curious about.

I’m still a bit scared of variety shows. Actually even for my previous appreance on MBC’s “Radio Starâ€, I was forced by (Yoo) Jun Sang hyung to appear on the show. I’m very afraid of talk shows. I can’t talk well and I’m not funny either. Variety shows that use the body are better instead. I just have to go there and work hard no matter what. Ah, but thinking about it, I don’t think it’s good either. I once appeared on SBS’ “Running Man†and I almost died then. Because it was really tiring. Well, there’s nothing that is easy. Haha.

 

Q: I hear that you are busy filming the movie “Fabricated City†these days. What kind of movie is it?

It is a story about getting framed and getting sent to prison, then escaping from prison to search for the mastermind. The genre is crime action, but it isn’t as dark as it sounds; it’s a movie that’s both light and cheerful.

 

Q: You are working with capable actors like Shim Eunkyung, Oh Jung Se and Ahn Jae Hong and there is already big anticipation for it. How is it like at the film set in reality?

Compared to dramas, movies are produced slower and every scene takes a long time, so there is slightly more time for me to think and that’s good. The atmosphere at the set is always harmonious as the director and other actors have amiable personalities.

 

Q: This seems to the be first time you are the lead in a movie. You must have received many offers all this while.

I tend to be rather careful when choosing movies. In between there were also a few times that the production was called off so I made my choice after thinking for a long time.

 

 

Q: We can’t avoid musicals when we talk about Ji Chang Wook. You were even doing the musical “The Days†and your drama “Healer†at the same time, so you seem to have a strong attachment to it.

I really enjoy doing performances. I think the stage is where the actor gets the most respect. Because no one can stop or bother you. I can also feel the response of the audience up close.

 

Q: The acting technique and tone are different for dramas and musicals. Isn’t that tough?

The fundamentals of acting are the same but the personality is slightly different. On stage, your actions must be bigger and more distinct because the audience is far away. Also your manner of speech, intonation or body tempo must be expressed well such that the audience will be able to feel them. But there’s no real need for over-action in dramas or movies. Each of them seem to have pros and cons.

 

Q: You ought to continue doing musicals.

Yes I will continue to do so.

 

Q: Looking at your works so far, from Song Eun Chae in KBS2 “Sons of Sol Pharmacyâ€, Oh Ji Eun in KBS1 “Smile Donghaeâ€, Ha Ji Won in MBC “Empress Kiâ€, to Park Min Young in KBS2 “Healerâ€, most of the actresses you’ve worked with are older than you.

I didn’t insist on working only with older actresses, but it turned out this way somehow. Really, except for (Jin) Se Yeon-ie in SBS “Five Fingers†and Eun Kyung-sshi in “Fabricated Cityâ€, all of them were older than me.

 

Q: Why do you call Shim Eun Kyung “Eun Kyung-sshi�

We still haven’t gotten close to each other….I’ve always been acting with seniors who are older than me, so I don’t know what to do once I meet a younger co-star. It’s too awkward. So now I’m at a stage where I’m extremely awkward with Eun Kyung-sshi. Everyone is annoyingly asking when are we going to get closer to each other, and I’m also on the lookout for a chance to get closer to her.

 

Q: Which older actor/actress is the most memorable to you?

Ha Ji Won noona! As Ji Won noona is my school senior and much more senior than me, it was difficult to approach her initially. At first, I thought a lot about what I should say to her. I ended up saying, “Senior, you are my school senior.†But noona only said “yes†which surprised me. Because her reply was very different from what I was expecting. Hahaha. Actually, I was expecting a reply like “Oh~ really? Who’s your professor? So you are my juniorâ€, so I was very flustered when she only said “yesâ€. From that moment, I had a mental breakdown. I even thought “We are doing a 50-episode production, this is a big problem†and “She doesn’t really like school?†(laugh). Fortunately, there were many scenes where we had to appear together, so we got close very quickly. I get dizzy thinking about that time.

 

 

Q: In actual fact, what is Ji Chang Wook’s style among those who are younger, same age, or older?

I’m jot particular about age. I don’t have a specific ideal type either.

 

Q: What kind of woman do you usually prefer?

It’s good if our conversations and laughing code match well. This is rather ambiguous, but I will firstly have a good feeling for her if we laugh and match in a certain way when talking. If we can’t have a proper conversation or if the situation becomes awkward, then I will feel uncomfortable no matter how pretty she is.

 

Q: Then the saying “love at first sight†probably doesn’t apply to Ji Chang Wook.

Thinking about this, it seems like I’ve never fallen in love at first sight before. Of course, my eyes will be attracted if there is a really pretty person next to me. I’m also human. But after talking to that person, I will think she’s not the one, definitely not the one.

 

Q: Looking at your filmography, you’ve been continuously acting without rest. Were there any slumps in between?

While doing “Smile Donghaeâ€, it was a bit difficult emotionally. As I was acting everyday, I felt that I didn’t seem to have talent, and nothing seemed to work out. I would do well when practising, but I was terrible when in front of the camera. So I seriously thought of finding other work to do. I couldn’t bring out the feelings that I had in mind.

 

Q: But eventually, “Smile Donghae†was a successful piece of work right? The viewership ratings were also high.

The drama did well. The viewership ratings were also good. But regardless of the ratings, my image in it was shabby and it was difficult to overcome that. I had lots of ambition, but I couldn’t express what I wanted to.

 

Q: How did you overcome your slump?

I made effort to observe my seniors’ acting. A senior comforted me and said, “There are no actors with talent. Everything is possible with hard work.†Listening to that, I gained courage and straightened out my mind. Actually if I weren’t an actor, there was nothing else to do (laughs).

 

Q: Do you have a criteria for choosing your projects?

I look at exactly three things. Though all of them are subjective reasons. Firstly, the script must be interesting, my role must be appealing, and I must have the confidence to take on that role. Sometimes after reading about the show, there roles that I’m not confident of playing no matter how interesting it is. Then it really won’t work out. But there are times when I can imagine myself acting in the show just by looking at the script. I will then gain confidence and I can also perform more easily during filming.

 

Q: Among your current works, which three are you most satisfied with?

“Five Fingersâ€, “Empress Ki†and “Healerâ€. Firstly I took the role of a villain in “Five Fingers†where I had to smash things and shout, which helped relieve a lot of stress. So it was memorable. In “Empress Kiâ€, I was able to portray what I had in mind, and I was able to act out whatever I wanted to express. In particular, I received a lot of praise from viewers which gave me a great sense of satisfaction. Finally in “Healerâ€, the scriptwriter had complete trust in me so I felt great right from the beginning. The result was also good.

 

 

Q: After “Smile Donghaeâ€, people called you “Donghae†for quite some time. At some point in time, the name Ji Chang Wook started to get overpowered by your characters’ names in dramas. In which drama did this start to happen?

After “Smile Donghaeâ€, people kept calling me â€œDonghaeâ€, but this proportion reduced a lot while I was acting SBS “Warrior Baek Dong Sooâ€. Around 70% was Donghae and 30% was Baek Dong Soo? But after “Empress Kiâ€, Donghae was completely gone. But there are still some people who call me Donghae some times.

 

Q: When you were being called “Donghaeâ€, I heard that you even seriously considered changing your name.

Really. Because people kept calling me Donghae. I’m no longer Donghae but people kept calling me Donghae, so I thought it would be to my benefit if I just changed my name to “Ji Donghaeâ€. But Donghae got forgotten as time passed because of other shows.

 

Q: I heard that you’ve been working with your current staff members for a long time. Your manager is also your classmate.

When I was filming SBS “Warrior Baek Dong Sooâ€, the management agency only comprised of me and the president; just two of us. I didn’t have a manager so it was very tiring, so I roped in my friend who is now my manager. I asked him “Do you have a driving license?â€, he said “I don’tâ€, so I told him “Then go get one†and he immediately went to get a license. Soon, I was taking him along to the film set. So he ended up working as my manager. Initially, this friend suffered a lot. Because he had to drive a large van, and he had to learn the job too. “Changwook-ah, what’s D?â€, “DAY – day sceneâ€, “Then what’s N?â€, “NIGHT – night sceneâ€â€¦I had to explain to him one by one like that and teach him.

 

Q: Looking now, both of you seem to have a special relationship. Surely you all don’t fight over anything.

We fought a lot initially. But we don’t fight now. Because we are best friends so we know each other very well. But there’s one thing that I’m unhappy about recently. That friend says he’s rather big and doesn’t appear at the film set frequently. While I’m sweating as I work, he’s drinking coffee at Gangnam and having a meeting (laughs).

 

Q: In a certain interview, you said that your goal when working on a show is to get along closely with staff rather than (focusing on) viewership ratings. Those words made a deep impression. 

Actually, whether a show does well or not is not something that can be done by me alone. Isn’t it better to have fun with the people I’m working with and make good memories?

 

 

Q: Talking to you so far, on a whole, it seems like you strive to be relaxed.

That’s right. Haha. Being relaxed is the best. 

 

Q: You say that being relaxed is good, somehow that seems like a homebody

It’s not that either. On rest days, I will definitely go out. But recently I’ve been raising a puppy so I spend more time at home. If it’s like last time, I would have gone out to meet friends on my rest day, but I’ve been busy cleaning dog poo and washing up, so I can’t go out often.

 

Q: What are you most concerned with these days?

My puppy. Because this is the period where I have to stay close and take good care of it.

 

Q: If you weren’t an actor, what would you be doing now?

An office worker? I’ll probably just ordinarily go to university and graduate, barely get myself a job and then start working at a company.

 

Q: I heard you studied a bit when you were in school.

When I was in school, I would get scolded if I didn’t do well or the people around me will call me a good student if I did well, so I only studied to manage that. I thought university was all that mattered to life. I thought that was success. But as I grew older and came to an age where I could think on my own, I realised that studying wasn’t everything. I didn’t rank first or second in the entire school, and it’s not like I’ll get to go to Seoul University just by doing a bit of that, so I totally lost interest. So while searching for something interesting, I ended up as an actor.

 

Q: Hearing the news today about Hallyu star Song Seung Heon dating Chinese actress Liu Yi Fei was shocking. Is cross-border romance also possible for Hallyu star Ji Chang Wook?

If I match well with that person and we can communicate, I think it’s sufficiently possible.

 

Q: You have a very good physique till that point that you are often called “gangster shoulders†or “Pacific Ocean shouldersâ€. Is there any exercise that you enjoy?

People think that I do weight lifting, but I hardly use weights.  Instead, I like soccer so I often play that.

 

Q: I heard that you are the only son. What kind of son are you to your parents?

Honestly speaking, I’m not a good son. I wish to be a good son, but it doesn’t turn out the way I want it. Firstly, I can’t see them often because I have no time. So they feel sad some times. (*Note: He didn’t use the word “them†or “they†in his reply, neither did he specify if he’s referring to one parent or both parents, though we know that he only lives with his mother. While the Korean language allows for pronouns to be omitted in sentences, it is hard to do so for English, so I just used “them†and “they†in my translation since the reporter asked about his “parents†and not just his mother)

 

Q: You are 29 this year (*Note: Korean age). After a few more months and you will be 30. How do you feel now that the first figure (of your age) will be changed?

I don’t really have any thoughts. Because I’m not the kind who is very concerned about getting older. I only think that yet another year has gone by. Like I’ve always been so (laughs).

 

Q: 10 years later, how will Ji Chang Wook look like?

I will probably still be acting and meeting friends occasionally like now? Actually, living like that is my wish (laughs).

Q: Is there a fan who is the most memorable?

Rather than fans who are memorable, there are fans who make me worried. There are some fans who will follow me from the airport and I’m very worried about them. Because it’s very dangerous.

 

lmao 

 

Q: Which older actor/actress is the most memorable to you?

Ha Ji Won noona!

During the weekend, JCW went to Taiwan for the fan meeting.

 

Some of the airport photos.

 

 

 

Ji Chang Wook arrived in Taiwan to much fanfare, with more than 200 fans waiting to welcome him at the airport. Upon arriving, fans rushed forth to offer him gifts and photocards for him to sign. He paused to hand out a few autographs before being whizzed away by an entourage of sports cars and staff dressed as Healers.

 

 

 

He tried so hard to entertain all of the fans. My baby is soo loving.

 

 

Whose idea was it to have a fleet of sports cars to escort him from the airport?

 

Ji Chang Wook was scheduled to attend a press conference at the atrium of GTV’s building at 3.30pm to promote the drama “Healerâ€. As his flight was delayed by an hour, the event only started 40 minutes later.

Having kept an entire room of media and fans waiting, Ji Chang Wook flashed a smile when he appeared and courteously apologised and thanked everyone for waiting. When the emcee sat at the wrong seat, he gestured to exchange seats. The crowd would burst out screaming each time he opened his mouth to speak, and he shyly greeted everyone in Chinese.

 

 

Fans waiting to see him at the GTV atrium

 

 

At the press conference, he said that because “Healer†was filmed in winter, it was very tough because of the low temperatures, and the action scenes were also challenging. But he was very happy working with the staff and other actors, and every scene in the drama left a deep impression on him. The lines in the script were beautiful, the visuals were pretty, and he really respected the director.

 

He admitted that he did not get a good sleep last night because he was too nervous, so he is feeling a bit tired now. But seeing everyone makes him very happy, and the passion of Taiwanese fans is always very memorable to him. Coming to Taiwan, he wants to eat pig intestine vermicelli again; he ate it last time and the taste was unforgettable. He also wants to have a look around Ximending. In any case, he wants to take home beautiful memories from his Taiwan trip this time.

 

 

The emcee suggested that he could venture out of Taipei to Shuangxi to fish for prawns. He laughed and said he has never caught prawns before and hope to go there if he has the chance. During the event, 70 fans in the atrium had the chance to see him up close, and he also picked 3 lucky fans to take a photo with him on stage.

 

Lucky fans.

Ji Chang Wook will also be appearing in the Taiwanese variety show “100% Entertainmentâ€. The episode will be aired next Friday.

[Event] Ji Chang Wook wraps up 2015 Taiwan fan meeting

 

 

Last night, Ji Chang Wook held his Taiwan fan meeting at the Taipei International Convention Centre, which was attended by about 1,500 fans.

 

Ji Chang Wook opened the show with a piano performance of “I’ll Protect You†as fans waved their blue-coloured light sticks. He greeted the audience in Hokkien (the Taiwanese dialect), saying “Did I sing well?†followed by “Hello, I am Ji Chang Wook,†drawing loud screams from the audience.

 

Videos of his opening performance:

Ji Chang Wook said he was happy to see everyone and hopes to get closer to all. He also did advance preparation such as practising the piano and coordinating with the band. He has been working hard to film his movie recently, and he knows that “Healer†is currently airing in Taiwan. He thanked everyone for their support and laughed, saying he will be everyone’s Healer tonight.

 

He also gave a surprise to fans by asking the audience to open up the table on the right hand side of their seats. Those with a voucher inside their seat will be entitled to front row VVIP seats and an autographed postcard. A total of 23 fans were picked in this lucky draw.

 

Video of him telling fans about the surprise:

 

http://youtu.be/BzKBpQafzK0

 

 

In the activity segment, he picked 3 fans by personally giving them a phone call to invite them on stage. He re-enacted classic scenes from “Healer†with them, such as standing close to each other in the towel scene, a back hug, and the snowflake kiss. He gamely completed all of them, and also gave the fans his personal cap, pyjamas and cushion seat.

 

In the second segment, another 3 fans were picked to go on stage, where he personally painted their nails for them.

 

Singing “Even Though I Loved Youâ€:

 

 

 

 

 

During the singing segment, he suddenly appeared among the audience seated at the back. Fans rushed forth to get closer to him to shake hands and take selfies. The area immediately became chaotic, but Ji Chang Wook did not panic, but asked the fans if they were hurt. Towards the end of the show, he even jumped off the stage, drawing screams from the audience. The show reached a climax when he sang the Chinese song “Fairytaleâ€, to which the whole hall sang along together as the 2-hour long event drew to a close.

 

After the show, he gave a round of high-fives to everyone before leaving. He will depart from Taipei on 7 September via the VIP access route at the airport.

 

This post is a summary of various articles about the event translated from Chinese.

[interview] Ji Chang Wook’s interview with the press in Taiwan

 

 

During Ji Chang Wook’s stay in Taiwan over the weekend, not only did he attend a press conference, hold a fan meeting and appear in a variety show, he also kept himself busy doing interviews with the Taiwanese press. This post is a summary of interviews released by various media outlets. Points that have been mentioned countless times in previous interviews have been omitted in this post.

 

 

When Ji Chang Wook arrived in Taiwan on 5 September, he first went to the GTV building to promote his drama “Healerâ€.  After having a simple box of Korean food for dinner, he did five interviews consecutively. By the time he got to the third round of interviews with the online media, he was visibly tired.  Interview and photo-taking was limited to 20 minutes, but because the staff left the photo-taking to the last, reporters could only take pictures for 10 seconds before they were asked to stop. Ji Chang Wook took the initiative to ask for more time for photo-taking to allow photographers to take more handsome pictures of him.

 

Ji Chang Wook was asked to rate his dancing, to which he laughed and said “20 pointsâ€, and revealed that he couldn’t dance well since young. The staff at the side snickered when they heard that, which made him burst out laughing uncontrollably, and seized the chance to complain to the media, “You see, all of them are laughing secretlyâ€.

 

Not only does he like soccer, he has also started to play golf with friends recently. As he is usually busy with filming for several months straight, he wishes to develop a hobby. Learning a musical instrument is also part of his plans.

 

As both “Healer†and his new movie “Fabricated City†involve action scenes, he was asked if he will keep doing action after trying it once. He laughed saying that he did not intentionally choose to do an action movie. Although he is trying action again, it is still as difficult and tough, and he hasn’t gotten better at it either.

 

 

Asked if he plans to take on a historical drama again, he revealed that he did receive an offer for a historical drama after “Empress Ki†ended, and he also finds such dramas very appealing. But if he stars in a historical drama again, he must act as the king!

Reporters also asked if he had many friends of the opposite gender when he was in school. He laughed saying he always went to a boys’ school and was only a very ordinary student. In university, he had a good relationship with both male and female classmates.

 

Not long after, he debuted as an actor. Looking back on his years in school, he admits he couldn’t have been more ordinary. During his rest days, he says he will usually meet up with friends for a meal or coffee and chat, and they will also meet up for a drink or to exercise. But because he is afraid of being recognised, he will usually meet up at quiet places with fewer people. If he gets discovered, he will secretly leave or else his friends will feel awkward. When he goes out, he doesn’t disguise himself like Healer.

 

When asked about the places he frequent, he says he will stay in Apgujeong and Cheongdam-dong most of the time. Not too long ago, he drove to Samcheong-dong and was surprised to find the scenery along the mountain road very beautiful. He also recommends everyone to visit the beautiful Han River when they come to Korea for a holiday.

 

Ji Chang Wook feels that his charm lies in his eyes. He said, “The eyes are the most genuine. I will first look at the eyes when I look at someone. I will also look at the eyes when I speak to someone.â€

 

Regarding his filming in Taiwan for “Running Man†previously, he said, “I think the Leofoo Village Theme Park is very pretty. You can see giraffes walking about when you wake up. It’s awesome. Although these are all very fun, I’m still afraid of amusement rides.â€

 

Here’s a video of him talking to the press about the places he frequents and driving at Samcheong-dong:

Ji Chang Wook makes a “cameo†in “The Long Way Homeâ€

 

 

Looks like Ji Chang Wook might be appearing on the big screen faster than we thought…or maybe not.

Actor Sol Kyung Gu, who was previously supposed to star with him in the movie “Two Constables†that never materialised, revealed in an interview that Ji Chang Wook made a special guest appearance on his upcoming war movie “The Long Way Homeâ€. However, Ji Chang Wook’s short cameo never made the final cut as his part was edited out from the movie.

 

Sol Kyung Gu said in his interview, “Many characters appeared in our movie, but many of them ended up being deleted during the editing process. This was the case for actors Kim Won Hae and Jung In Gi, and even for Jung Suk Won who only appeared in one scene in the beginning.â€

 

“Especially in the case of (Ji) Chang Wook, he was supposed to act with me in the movie ‘Two Constables’ but it was postponed, so he said he will make a special appearance in ‘The Long Way Home’. His agency representative was also on close terms with our producer. He made his way down to Ha Dong immediately after his drama ended in order to film this, but he was completely edited out of the movie. He was just cut out like that.â€

 

In the movie, Sol Kyung Gu stars as a South Korean soldier called Nam Bok. He went on to elaborate on Ji Chang Wook’s cameo role.

“He appeared as a South Korean soldier who gives me a draft notice. That was the story about Nam Bok’s past and the drama begins from that point onwards. It was probably edited out because it made the story too long.â€

 

“The Long Way Home†is a movie about Nam Bok, a farmer who is drafted to become a South Korean soldier, and a North Korean soldier named Young Gwang (played by Yeo Jin Gu), who can operate a tank just by reading a manual. Both of them get embroiled in a dangerous battle over a secret document that has the power to turn the tide of the war.

 

Although it seems that Ji Chang Wook might not be appearing in the actual movie, he is seen in one of the movie’s trailers. He appears around the 2-minute mark of the trailer. Blink and you might just miss it!

 

 

Soldier 1 (Ji Chang Wook): Your draft notice is here! Kim Nam bok-sshi?
Nam Bok: I’ll be having my 60th birthday tomorrow and the day after, what army?
Soldier 2: Let’s go.
Soldier 1 (Ji Chang Wook): Your country is calling you.

 

Sol Kyung Gu’s revelation now helps to answer the mystery of a photo of Ji Chang Wook at a film set that emerged last September. Turns out he was filming this movie!

This turn of events sounds eerily similar to what happened to his supposed cameo in the 2013 film “How To Use Guys With Secret Tipsâ€. Although he was listed in the final credits as a guest star playing the role of Hong Joon oppa, he never appeared in the final cut of the movie at all. While that may have been understandable since he wasn’t as famous back then, you would think that the director would want to keep his cameo segment now that he has made it as a Hallyu star. I guess the director would rather focus on quality than star power, and we probably can’t blame him for that. But I’m sure we all feel it’s a pity, just like Sol Kyung Gu.

 

“The Long Way Home†opens in theatres in Korea on 24 September 2015.
