Actor Jung Woo-sung, who appears in the Disney+ original series "Made In Korea," held back his words about the "out-of-wedlock child controversy."

According to the entertainment industry on the 15th, Jung Woo-sung attended the Made In Korea production presentation held at the Grand InterContinental Parnas in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and said, "I ask for your understanding that I cannot speak at length about my personal changes or reflections."

In response to the question, "Weren't there difficulties filming due to changes in family relations such as the birth of a child out of wedlock and marriage?" he only said, "I understand what the question is, but today is a gathering of several actors for the work 'Made In Korea.'"

Made In Korea depicts the story of Korea in the 1970s, when turmoil and takeoff coexisted, and Baek Gi-tae (Hyun Bin), a company man who seeks to rise to the pinnacle of wealth and power by using the state as a revenue model, and Prosecutor Jang Geon-young (Jung Woo-sung), who pursues him, as they confront massive cases.

It is Jung Woo-sung's first OTT series attempt and drew attention as his return one year after acknowledging the birth of a child out of wedlock. Jung acknowledged last year that he is the biological father of the son born to model Moon Gabi. He then completed a marriage registration with a different romantic partner in Aug.

Actor Jung Sung-il, asked the same question, said, "Not only me but the director here, the staff, and the actors all filmed joyfully and passionately. There is no doubt about that," adding, "We did our best on this project, and there was nothing at all that was a problem."

Jung Woo-sung did not hold back when speaking about his role and the project. He said, "(Jang Geon-young is) a stubborn figure," introducing him as "a man of determination who, within his view of his profession, will stubbornly carry out his duty to the end."

Meanwhile, the six-part Made In Korea will release its first two episodes on the 24th. After that, two episodes will be released on the 31st of this month, and one episode each on Jan. 7 and Jan. 14.
