Jung Sung Il, star of the film ”Murderer Report,” continued working part-time after ”The Glory”
Actor Jung Sung Il talked about what has changed since appearing in the Netflix series "The Glory" (hereafter "The Glory").
Previously, Jung Sung Il appeared on MBN Channel S variety show "Jun Hyun Moo Plan 2" and was praised for his hit song "The Glory."
He surprised everyone by confessing that he had been working part-time jobs to make ends meet since then. Recently, at an event with Herald POP held at a cafe in Seogyeok-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul,
In an interview, Jung Sung Il confessed, "I'm happy that I don't have to audition anymore." He added, "'The Glory' has been released, but before that, I was barely making a living.
I had to continue working part-time because I needed to make a living. Rather than working to do something amazing, I had to work just to make a basic living."
"It's been about three years since I stopped working part-time. I can now eat as much as I want and think twice before buying sneakers, something I'd only thought about three or four times before.
"I haven't had a high standard of living in the past, so now I can make a living just from acting. Being able to make a living just from acting is financially
It's also great that I don't have to audition anymore. The process of auditioning and waiting for the results was so tough."
He also said, "It felt like I was constantly going through job interviews. I went thousands of times, but I only got through 10th or less. I didn't have to go through auditions.
I felt satisfied that I had gone from non-regular employment to regular employment, but added, "Of course, it's a job that requires you to be employed, so I don't know how long I'll be able to do it."
"I'm always worried about whether I'll be able to continue producing works like I am now. I think I need to work steadily so that the public will want to use my work," he said, resolutely.
The film "Murderer Report" tells the story of a veteran journalist, Seong-ju (played by Cho Yeo-jun), who is hungry for a scoop, and a psychiatrist, Young-hoon (played by Jung So-hyun).
The story begins when a man named Kim Jong-il (played by Kim Il-soo) asks for an interview to confess to a series of murders, and the film will be released in Korea on the 5th.
