BH Entertainment said on 31일 that Jung Woo’s exclusive contract will expire. The agency said it will continue supporting him through the release of his first directing project, the film ‘Jjangu,’ until it reaches audiences.
“We were happy to be with actor Jung Woo, and that time was a meaningful journey for both of us,” BH Entertainment said. “We will continue our full support until ‘Jjangu’ meets audiences.” The agency added, “We sincerely support Jung Woo so he can expand his activities in more diverse ways, grounded in his own style.”
Jung Woo signed an exclusive contract with BH Entertainment in 2019. The agency said the two are maintaining an amicable relationship even after the contract ends, based on long-standing trust.
Jung Woo drew public attention with the 2009 film ‘Wish.’ He later gained wide popularity for his role as “Trash” in the tvN drama ‘Reply 1994.’ His credits include the films ‘C’est Si Bon,’ ‘The Himalayas,’ ‘New Trial,’ ‘Heung Boo: The Revolutionist,’ ‘Next Door Neighbor’ and ‘Hot Blooded,’ as well as the drama ‘Mad for Each Other.’
Jung Woo is also moving into directing. ‘Jjangu,’ which he directed and stars in, is scheduled to open April 24.
