Lee Jin-wook plays Yoon Seok-hoon, a partner lawyer at Yulim, a law firm. He appears as a mentor to Kang Hyo-min (Jeong Chae-yeon), a wannabe lawyer and new lawyer who is trusted by everyone for his cold appearance, cool speaking, and skills. He said the reason for his appearance was that he constantly asked whether Yoon Seok-hoon was a person who really followed justice or a person who followed his client's justice.
Then "Yoon Seok-hoon is not a person with only one color. Although it looks cold, there is a clear feeling in it, and there is a firm belief in the cool and firm expression. "There is a three-dimensional charm that seems to like animals more than people at some point."
Lee Jin-wook cited 'Trust and responsibility' as the keyword that symbolizes Yoon Seok-hoon and "A person who solves anything." 'Trust me' is a character to which the phrase 'believe in me' is appropriate,' he added. In addition, he revealed the inner nature of the character construction by imagining Yoon Seok-hoon's lifestyle, emotional line, and way of thinking that could seem highly knowledgeable.
Finally, he laughed and expressed his feelings, "'Playing Yoon Seok-hoon, I actually came to judge justice more logically.'
JTBC 'Squire: Lawyers Who Dream of Becoming a Lawyer' will premiere at 10:40 p.m. on Aug. 2.
