"Crushology 101"'s Jo Jun-young conveyed a deep resonance with his pure-hearted demeanor.
Jo Jun-young grants as the naturally gifted conglomerate heir "Cha Ji-won" in MBC's Friday-Saturday drama "Crushology 101" (directed by Kim Ji-hoon, written by Seong So-eun, Lee Sul, produced by Kakao Entertainment), claiming to be "Bani's admirer" with only affection for Bani (played by Noh Jung-eui), shaking the hearts of the audience.
In the last broadcast, when Bani was chosen as the last protagonist of the confession tree segment at the art college festival, Cha Ji-won confidently went up on stage at the call of MC Han Yu-reum (played by Jeon So-young) and made eye contact with Bani with a trembling gaze, creating a high-tension moment.
In the ensuing scene, it was revealed that the confession note was written not by Cha Ji-won but by Hwang Jae-yeol (played by Lee Chae-min), causing a momentary surprise. When Hwang Jae-yeol asked why they kept crossing the line, Cha Ji-won boldly expressed his feelings, saying, "I want to go, to Bani," melting the hearts of the viewers once again.
At the end of the broadcast, Cha Ji-won tried to win over Bani's heart by going to pick her up in front of her house and asking for a weekend date, but ultimately turned away with a pained expression upon seeing Bani leave with Hwang Jae-yeol, moving the viewers.
In this process, Jo Jun-young expressed Cha Ji-won's genuine feelings for Bani through excellent control of pace, from immediately blocking a situation where Bani almost got hurt to holding her tightly when she was distressed, enhancing immersion and giving the drama a greater weight, receiving positive reviews.
Meanwhile, "Crushology 101," where Jo Jun-young is making noticeable contributions, depicts Bani's romance entangled with attractive men suddenly approaching her after her first love, which has become a black history, and airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m. on MBC.
