◆ Q&A about the award


Q. [9th Donga.com's PICK] How do you feel about receiving the award?

First of all, I would like to thank you for giving me this special award. I feel good whenever I receive an award. It makes me think that I should work hard in the future.


Q. What did you think after seeing the name of the award (Veteran of Reversal)?

The name of the award is 'Veteran of Reversal', and I feel like there will be a twist in the award. As an actor, I always want to show a twist rather than a similar appearance, so it felt special.


Q. Congratulations on being handsome. Please tell us your thoughts.

Thank you so much for thinking so! Haha


Q. Please describe ‘Jung Hae-in’s 2024’, which showed polar opposite charms, in one word.

It wasn't my intention, but the opening of the drama 'Mom's Friend's Son' and the movie 'Veteran 2' coincided this year. The two works have different endings, but I think I was lucky to be able to show various sides of myself at the same time. I think 2024 will be a year that I will remember for a long time and be thankful for.


Q. You are breaking genres, from melodrama to action and romantic comedy. What is your next goal for breaking genres?

If it's a work with a powerful story, I'm willing to challenge myself with any genre.


Q. During that time, you have great skin and body. You are a master of management. What is your special management secret?

Rather than having any special management tips, I try to eat as healthily as possible. Drinking water frequently and getting enough sleep are also important.


Q. Future plans

I have a fan meeting tour planned for the future, and I am excited to meet fans from all over the world. I want to finish it in good health. And I will work hard to meet you again in a good production.
