New actor Jang Deok-soo (25) is located early in the jewelry box in Hong Seok-cheon.

After successfully completing season 1 of his debut work 'Cheongdam International High School', he also made a clear impression in season 2 of 'Cheongdam International High School'. New actor Jang Deok-soo settled perfectly in viewers' jewelry boxes. Jang Deok-soo, who recently met Sports Chosun, heard a lot because "Cheonggukgo" was also his debut, and there was a brief gap after finishing season 1, but as he participated in season 2, he felt a lot of character to show. So I was able to film it in a good mood and fun way rather than a burden.

Park Woo-jin, played by Jang Deok-soo, was a member of Diamond 6, who dominated power on campus, and was a person who committed evil acts, but he also shocked the home turf by becoming the main character of the final episode. Viewers are shocked by Park Woo-jin's misdeeds in the play. In season 2, he even assaulted Kim Hae-in (Jang Sung-yoon) indiscriminately, making him look impossible to shield. In response, Jang Deok-soo "I was also very surprised to see the script. In the end, I was the one who killed Oh Ji-eun (Hadasol), so I thought about how to look more vicious and mean with the director. The feeling the director wanted was the feeling between Jeon Jae-joon (Park Sung-hoon) and Son Myung-oh (Kim Gun-woo) of 'The Glory', so I thought a lot about it because he said it would be nice to have a luxurious 'Yangachi' charm. So, while thinking about how to make the lines more interesting, I watched the famous scene of Jungwoo Ha's 'Beast Boyz' before filming and thought 'I could make it fun if I breathe like this. The director liked the tone, and he gave me that energy and praised me saying, `It's talented, it's good, it's good.'

Since Park Woo-jin's misdeeds did not end simply with swear words, Jang Deok-soo chose to concentrate rather than 'immersed' into the role. Jang Deok-soo said "When acting, I thought about doing it realistically. However, it was difficult to understand Woo-jin, so he seems to have focused rather than immersed himself. Every time I read the script 'That's terrible. It's a real trash. I thought about what Woo-jin's strengths would be, but there wasn't much. It's hard to say that it's Woojin's strength, but since he does his best, I think that's his strength."

Ryu Jeong-seok of tvN 'First, For Love', who he met after playing the trashy Park Woo-jin, is rather a character who looks exactly like Jang Deok-soo. As he played Ryu Jeong-seok in his childhood, who is usually an introvert and focuses on his own hobbies, viewers also fell in love with the narrative of the characters in the play. Jang Deok-soo seems to have understood the essence of "First, for love" and naturally flowed. I'm usually quiet, introverted and timid, so I feel brightened up through this job. My parents also look at me and say, `I'm getting slicker and slicker.' I think my personality has changed a lot while acting. I think it's becoming more active because it's a job that depends on the environment," he said with a smile,

The rich sensitivity of watching movies alone and enjoying flower arrangements was inherited from my parents. He said he naturally became emotional thanks to the movie-like love story of his mother and father, whom he met while majoring in design in Paris, France. Jang Deok-soo said, `Thanks to my parents, I naturally fell in love with movies. It is said that since I was young, I liked making and filming something. Since kindergarten, I think there was a thought that I wanted to watch 'All In' and act. I didn't have a firm dream until high school, but my dad told me 'What are you going to do when you're 20?' Do you want to try acting?' he said. At that time, my dream was constantly changing, and it changed every time I watched a movie. I started acting with the thought of 'Let's do it then' and thought of going to school, so I thought of learning directing."

Jang Deok-soo, who entered the Seoul National University of the Arts, showed different steps from the cotyledons, such as creating his own directing team and producing movies. Jang Deok-soo said, "'I thought that learning to direct while acting and learning to act while acting were different, so I entered the directing major. The independent film teams looked cool, so I observed their motives one by one, and then took a picture of them one by one, and to my friends who had never even spoken to me at the club launching ceremony, would you like to team up with me?It was suggested that ' Everyone was so passionate because they were in their first year, so all the key staff gathered in a day, and within a few months, they worked on the script and immediately started making it into a 4-50 minute movie. I'm currently revising it, but I'm trying to put it in a film festival. I tried to deal with a bright youth rather than a dark youth, but it tells the story of a delivery man, and whenever I have money, I try to film it responsibly and complete it."

Jang Deok-soo is making remarkable growth not only in directing but also in acting. Jang Deok-soo plays a variety of roles from Park Woo-jin in 『Cheonggukgo』 to Ryu Jeong-seok in 『First, Love』, and web drama 『Short Script』. Jang Deok-soo said, `I also want to play a friend who is not bad in the romance genre. I'm greedy for an epileptic character who doesn't blame anyone, isn't insidious, and only cares about love. If there is someone who is looking for you, I am ready to work hard on acting."

It is Hong Seok-cheon who recognized Jang Deok-soo early on, who is known as 'Jewel Detector'. Expectations for Hong Seok-cheon's jewelry box are higher as it is also included in Hong Seok-cheon's jewelry box early on. Jang Deok-soo said "When I went to Gocheok Dome with my sister for the first time, there was a picture taken by her, and the reaction was good when I posted it on Instagram. One day, the number of views reached 2.6 million, and Hong Seok-cheon followed me just before I went to bed. 'Does this go into the jewelry box that I've only heard about?' I felt good because I wanted to. Please read this article and call me on the "Treasure Box"," he said with a smile.

Jang is currently showing his face through a web drama 'Short Script' and is competing for first place in an audition program 'Casting 1147km'.
