It's been seventeen years since his debut as an actor, but actor Joo Sang Wook's recently concluded project "Cunning Single Lady" played a big role in his career.
Joo Sang Wook is known for portraying rich and successful men in dramas, but he shares that he wants to break away from that stereotype. After portraying a tough and stern character in "Good Doctor", the perfect opportunity for him to change his image come with his role as a comical and quirky computer engineer in "Cunning Single Lady".
He said, "If there's still someone who calls me a director after seeing me in the drama, I don't know what to say. Regardless of whether I've changed my image or not, I'm just glad that I was able to show a different role in the drama."
"I've always been portraying director or businessman roles in the past. In the drama, I thought I was acting seriously, but it turns out to be comical. I felt comfortable acting without having to worry about the limitations," he added.
On his chemistry with on-screen wife Lee Min Jung, he said, "It was easy because we've worked together in the past. She was worried because it's her first time acting after her marriage, but I think she managed it well."
