Jung Hae In's popularity rose after portraying the role of a single father in One Spring Night and as a soldier in charge of catching army deserters in the short series D.P.

The first drama tells the story of a handsome single parent, an employee of the library in his father's restaurant, who cares about his daughter and works hard, whilefacing professional and personal challenges.

The second drama, in turn, shows his experience in the military as he along with his colleague traces some army deserters and, in the process, meets a former school friend who escaped.

Both dramas are psychological and raise some moral dilemmas. However, little is known about this actor's personal life, which only adds mystery to the blinding light of his shining popularity.

Jung Hae In was born on April 1, 1988, in Seoul, South Korea. His family is quite influential and rich, so he was born for great things. He is a descendant of Jung Yak Yong, who was a scholar and advisor of Joseon Dynasty King Jeongjo.

He was considered the most handsome man of his time and was even called as the "Leonardo Da Vinci of the Joseon Dynasty. Yak Yong's job was as a philosopher performing the duties of a minister.

His family upbringing did not allow the future actor to feel the usual freedom and irresponsibility of a spoiled child. His grandparents raised him due to the enormous work of his parents who have been working in a large hospital for a long time. His father now works there as a professor in ophthalmology at a Medical University in Korea.

The actor became successful in his later years due to his wishes to finish his studies and do military service in accordance with social expectations.

The net worth of this actor is $14 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. 

The information is not provided regarding his salary for each episode of the new drama Love Next Door. For his previous drama, "Snowdrop," the actor was paid 110 million for each episode, and JISOO received the same amount for each episode of this series
