Actor Lee Jung Jae spoke about the controversy involving actor Jung Woo Sung, his close friend and co-shareholder of Artist Company.

In a recent interview in Samcheong-dong, Seoul, Lee Jung Jae was asked about the rumors regarding Jung Woo Sung’s child born out of wedlock. He responded indirectly, saying, “I hope everyone makes decisions that lead to positive outcomes.”

Earlier, speculation arose about internal conflict at Artist Company when a New Year’s greeting from the agency excluded Jung Woo Sung. Addressing this, Lee Jung Jae said, “I didn’t even realize Jung Woo Sung wasn’t included. How could I check everything?”

He added, “I think Jung Woo Sung will need to handle things well moving forward. He should take time to think and discuss what the best decisions are.” He also shared an update, saying, “Woo Sung is currently working hard filming ‘Made in Korea’ (directed by Woo Min Ho). He is busy with shooting outside of Seoul, and I’ve been traveling internationally for promotions. Once our schedules settle down, we’ll meet.”

Lee Jung Jae stars in Netflix’s ‘Squid Game 2’, which follows Gi Hun’s (Lee Jung Jae) struggle to uncover the truth behind the deadly game. The series is now available for streaming.
