Jung Kyung-ho Opens Up About Choi Soo-young’s Impact on His Life and Career

In a recent appearance on the YouTube channel hosted by Shin Dong-yup, actor Jung Kyung-ho made heartfelt comments about his partner, Choi Soo-young. The video, released on the 12th, also featured actors Seol In-ah and Cha Hak-yeon.

During the show, Shin Dong-yup jokingly warned Jung Ho-cheol, “Never talk about Kyung-ho’s girlfriend. The office specifically requested to avoid that topic.” However, Jung Kyung-ho interjected, saying, “No, it’s okay to some extent.”

The conversation took a more touching turn when Shin Dong-yup brought up Jung Kyung-ho’s father, Jeong Eul-young, a respected star director. “Your father was a major TV producer. When his son said he wanted to act, I can imagine how he must have felt, being a parent myself,” Shin states.

Jung Kyung-ho responded with sincerity, saying, “Yes, I lingered in this industry for a long time without much direction. I feel truly sorry. But Choi Soo-young held me together.” He reflected further, “Without her, I might have become a disappointing actor. She’s my anchor.”

He continued, “I’m so grateful for her. And I also deeply appreciate my father for supporting me despite his initial doubts.” Shin Dong-yup added humorously, “Without Choi Soo-young, Jung Kyung-ho might have ended up like Ma Joon-gyu from the film Roller Coaster.”
