On the October 9 episode of tvN’s “You Quiz on the Block,” Jung Hae-in, who has had a strong presence in Korea this year with the success of both the K-drama “Love Next Door” and the film “ THE. the Executioner” (sequel to “Veteran”), appeared as a guest.
Jung Hae-in, who debuted at age 27 after numerous auditions, gained recognition for his “first love” roles in “Reply 1988” and “Goblin.” He then firmly established his presence in the industry through notable performances in “While You Were Sleeping,” “Prison Playbook,” and “Something in the Rain.”
In the episode mentioned above, Yoo Jae-suk mentioned, “I heard you gave your longtime manager a foreign car after you became famous.”
Jung Hae-in, smiling modestly, explained: “We went through a lot together and he took care of all the administrative tasks for me.”
The actor continued, “Today the coach is here, who has been with me since my debut. I gave him a watch,” before expressing gratitude by adding: “He’s the coach who’s been with me since I was a rookie. I had no money back then and even had to use a negative balance account. When he got paid, he bought me chicken and beer. He’s been doing it for years.”
Furthermore, Jung Hae-in revealed, “When I started earning and saving, he was the first person I wanted to give a gift to, even before my parents. But he firmly refused.”
