Kim Jaejoong will be portraying the character of capable Financial Prince Cha Mu Won, acting against Ji Sung, Choi Kang Hee and Wang Ji Hye. Although he is the talent who is excellent in handling matters and with gentleman poise, but as the time passes by, changes occur with the surroundings.
Kim Jaejoong’s first domestic drama had attracted lots of attention. He, who debuted as an actor through Japan’s drama, “In Japan, all the staffs are Japanese. Therefore they miraculously looked at me and treated me very well. If I were to say a similarity between acting in Korea and Japan, it would be that both treat me especially well,” saying this while laughing. He also talked about the most worrying thing in domestic drama. “Because Japanese and native language are not the same, it was less burdened on the contrary. It is a domestic drama and although it is my own country, I am afraid that I might speak wrongly thus I am rather worried about this.”
In the revealed video, Kim Jaejoong’s expression and talking were very natural. To this, Kim Jaejoong laughed and praised himself, “Today is my first time watching the edited video, it is not too bad.”, “It doesn’t seems to be me. The person (meaning Kim Jaejoong himself) in the video, is quite good.”
Though the attention was on Kim Jaejoong’s first domestic drama, the fans’ gifts placed at the production press conference garnered even more attention. Both domestic and international fans have sent rice wreaths to support Kim Jaejoong’s drama, expressing their support.
