Ji Chang Wook Hits Rock Bottom After Losing His Successful Career In “Merry Berry Love”

The upcoming Korean-Japanese series “Merry Berry Love” has unveiled new stills featuring Ji Chang Wook in character!

“Merry Berry Love” is a romantic comedy about Lee Yu Bin (Ji Chang Wook), a Korean spatial designer who achieved great success in Korea but loses everything overnight and travels to a Japanese island in hopes of turning his life around. There, he meets Shirahama Karin (Imada Mio), a young Japanese strawberry farmer who has devoted her life to growing strawberries.

Ji Chang Wook plays Lee Yu Bin, a man whose successful career as a top-tier spatial designer comes crashing down overnight, leaving him unemployed. The newly released stills capture the stark contrast between his life before and after his fall from success, showing both the polished city man who exudes a professional aura and the unemployed man catching brief naps while looking disheveled.

Once accustomed to a relaxed atmosphere, perfect hairstyle and a desk surrounded by office tools and covered with blueprints, Lee Yu Bin eventually sheds his chic persona completely.

“Merry Berry Love” is a romantic comedy about Lee Yu Bin (Ji Chang Wook), a Korean spatial designer who achieved great success in Korea but loses everything overnight and travels to a Japanese island in hopes of turning his life around.

The newly released stills capture the gradual evolution of Lee Yu Bin and Shirahama Karin’s relationship. In the first photo, the two face each other warily.

Ji Chang Wook Talks About His Recent Drama “The Scandal,” What Acting Means To Him, And More

Actor Ji Chang Wook recently sat down with ELLE Korea to discuss his recent drama “The Scandal”!

Based on the 2003 film “Untold Scandal,” “The Scandal” depicts the daring and dangerous love game between Lady Cho (Son Ye Jin), a woman whose exceptional talents far exceed the confines of the women’s quarters, and Cho Won (Ji Chang Wook), the greatest playboy of Joseon. Their risky wager ensnares another woman, Hui Yeon (Nana), who becomes entangled in their escalating deception. The series tells a story steeped in forbidden love and irresistible seduction in an era when such passions were not permitted.

Discussing the process of developing his character Cho Won, Ji Chang Wook shared, “I tried not to deliberately exaggerate or add to his qualities as a playboy. Instead, I wanted them to be naturally reflected in his attitude and actions. Cho Won is a complex and challenging man. Since he is a character whose true feelings remain a mystery until the very end, it was quite fun to portray him, but there were also quite a few difficult aspects. I had many conversations with director Jung Ji Woo to bring the character of Cho Won to life.”

When asked about the similarities between himself and Cho Won, he shared, “Inevitably, since I am the one portraying the character, a little bit of Ji Chang Wook is bound to be reflected in the character as I portray him.”

He also discussed the scenes in which he faces off with Lady Cho. He remarked, “There isn’t a single scene in which Lady Cho and Cho Won encounter each other that isn’t breathtaking. Every moment is packed. We always put a lot of effort into rehearsals, and I think viewers will be able to fully feel the tension between the two, which has been meticulously portrayed.”

Ji Chang Wook, who has continuously reinvented himself through his performances in a variety of genres, was asked what acting means to him. He remarked, “It’s getting harder and harder. That’s because it’s not easy to define in a single phrase. That’s why I always try to rely heavily on the help of my colleagues, from the director to the cinematography, lighting, costumes, and makeup—even the look of the space I’m standing in. I always strive to act across various genres, but that doesn’t mean I can become a completely different person. In the end, acting is a job where you receive help from people. I’ve often thought that perhaps an actor’s skill lies in how well they make use of that help.”

He continued, “The moments when I feel the greatest thrill while acting are also, without exception, when I communicate well with my colleagues and team members. When we create a great scene that way and I see everyone happy about it, that’s when I enjoy my work the most.”

Talking about his daily life, Ji Chang Wook shared, “Honestly, my daily life these days is quite boring and repetitive. Sometimes it even feels uninteresting. Even so, the fortunate thing is that the career I chose is still incredibly fun for me. I want to continue moving steadily toward the standards I’ve set for myself.”

Watch: Son Ye Jin Makes A Shocking Proposal To Ji Chang Wook In Preview Of New Drama “The Scandal”

Netflix’s upcoming drama “The Scandal” has unveiled a new intriguing preview teaser!

Based on the 2003 film “Untold Scandal,” “The Scandal” depicts the daring and dangerous love game between Lady Cho (Son Ye Jin), a woman whose exceptional talents far exceed the confines of the women’s quarters, and Cho Won (Ji Chang Wook), the greatest playboy of Joseon. Their risky wager ensnares another woman, Hui Yeon (Nana), who becomes entangled in their escalating deception. The series tells a story steeped in forbidden love and irresistible seduction in an era when such passions were not permitted.

The new teaser begins with Cho Won riding a horse on his way to Hanyang in response to a letter from Lady Cho asking him to come see her.

The two eventually meet in Lady Cho’s room, where a tense atmosphere fills the space as they face each other once again.

“I have a favor to ask of you,” Lady Cho says before revealing the reason she summoned him. She makes the bold request that Cho Won get So Ok (Shin Yoon Ha), a woman intended to become a concubine in the family, pregnant.

Faced with the unexpected proposal, Cho Won appears deep in thought as he tilts his head and rubs his chin. Lady Cho then challenges him to show off his “skills.”

“I hear you have spent your years plucking every pretty flower beyond Hanyang. Then show me, this once, how much you have changed,” she says.

After giving the request some thought, Cho Won responds with a question of his own: “Do you still hold me in your heart?” This intriguing exchange raises questions about their complicated history and what lies ahead.
