In the 'Foodie Hyungman’s Table Tour,' Jung Il-woo disclosed the casting backstory of the sitcom 'High Kick Without Hesitation.'
In the episode aired on the 8th, Jung Il-woo grants appeared in TV CHOSUN's 'Foodie Hyungman’s Table Tour' (hereinafter referred to as 'Table Tour').
That day, while eating pumpkin soup, Jung Il-woo shared, "I shouldn't be eating like this, but I have filming tomorrow."
When Hyungman said, "I really can’t eat freely or go out to play freely," Jung Il-woo remarked, "But I feel much happier when I’m working. I’m returning to drama after two years. If there’s a gap, it feels like I have entered a tunnel. It feels like I have been in the tunnel all along, and I can finally see the light while coming out."
He, who noted that he hasn’t rested for a long time, surprised Hyungman by revealing, "Next year marks my 20th debut anniversary." After debuting in 2006 with the sitcom 'High Kick Without Hesitation,' Jung Il-woo quickly rose to stardom, without ever being unknown, and his career has been nothing but a peak for 20 years.
Hyungman asked, "How did you get to grant the role in 'High Kick Without Hesitation'?" Jung Il-woo replied, "I auditioned. The competition was 400:1. When I later asked the director, 'Why did you choose me?' he said, 'I picked you because you seemed pretty when you laugh.'"
