Actor Jung Woong-in recalls his past hardships.

In Channel A 'Best Friend Tokumentary-4-person Table', which will be broadcast on the 13th, actor Jung Woong-in invites actor Song Sun-mi, who has worked with director Jang Hang-joon, his best friend of 36 years, in the movie 'Duabu-In-One'.

On this day, Jung Woong-in will reveal the story of his debut in a drama thanks to Jang Hang-jun when he was only active on the theater stage after graduating from college. Jang Hang-jun, the main writer of SBS 'Thousands and nights', called Jeong Woong-in first and said, `I'm going to call producer Kim Byung-wook, but at first, tell him I won't do it, I'll wear out once I open it,' causing his best friends to laugh. In the end, he was able to make his face known as an actor by appearing in big works, starting with director Jang Hang-joon's plan to appear in the movie `The Quiet Family' to the dramas 'gukhee' and 'Eunsil'. In addition, Jung Woong-in's father, who was hospitalized, told Jang Hang-jun, who came to the hospital, that he could not stop talking, saying, "Teacher, my family lives thanks to you."




Jung Woong-in will then disclose his family history. I remember being heartbroken when I remembered my father, who ran a hamburger restaurant, picking up the noodles that fell and spilled while delivering 20 servings of noodles on a motorcycle. He recalls his father, who passed away after fighting cancer, confides that "I suddenly remember how hard my father, who has passed away at my age, must have been in his sleep." Jung Woong-in, whose parents were the driving force, is said to have appeared in hit movies for four years after his debut, and eventually moved from a moldy semi-basement house to a three-story, 30-pyeong apartment.

After the appearance of '3 Friends', the manager at the time confessed the ordeal of being swindled with all his property because he used a bond as collateral for Jung Woong-in's property. He visited a loan shark and recalled the desperate moment when he knelt down, and he also tells a funny (?) anecdote that people who put up red foreclosure labels at the time said "You're a famous person, so I'll put it on the back."

The relationship between Jeong Woong-in, Jang Hang-joon, and Kim Eun-hee will also be revealed. He got into a fight with writer Kim Eun-hee after being bitten by a dog at Jang Hang-jun's honeymoon house in the past, and Jang Hang-jun said he was slapped by Kim Eun-hee while siding with Jung Woong, turning the scene into a sea of laughter.




Meanwhile, Channel A 'Best Friend Tokumentary-4-person Table' will air at 8:10 p.m. on the 13th.
