Netflix TUDUM Korea Spotlight

The series, which was released in August, tells the story of a team of Korean military police with their mission to catch deserters. "When I tried to portray An Jun-ho, what I paid a lot of attention to was not saying a word, but expressing my present emotion in other ways. I discussed a lot with the director. Since he's someone who is trapped, it was very difficult to express how he felt when he faced external stimulation," Jung said. Also known for shows like Something in the Rain, One Spring Night, and movie "Tune in for Love", the actor said he hopes to stay healthy in "both body and mind" to continue his job.

"When people tell me that they are enjoying the show and when I'm shooting on set and people send me coffee, delicious snacks, or even send me meals to support me during my acting, that's when I feel that I'm being loved. I realise that I have to do my best. I'm always thankful when I go on set. I love my family and I love my fans," Jung added.
