Jung Woo-sung: "While shooting 'Protector,' I lost my father, briefly attended the funeral, then returned to set... Is this acceptable?"
Actor Jung Woo-sung revealed that he suffered the loss of his father while filming the movie "Protector."
In a video interview with News1 about the movie "Protector" on the morning of the 10th, when asked about the difficulties he faced while filming, Jung Woo-sung said, "There were none as a director."
However, he added, "During the difficult situation with COVID-19, we cautiously continued filming, and during the Busan shoot, my father passed away. I just held the funeral and returned to filming," expressing the personal hardship he experienced.
Jung Woo-sung recalled, "It was difficult to delay the shooting due to personal circumstances. The budget wasn't small, but it was a 'compact' budgeted project. Even delaying a day or two was a burden on the project. I went to Seoul for a short time and immediately shot the action scenes."
He added, "I wondered if it was okay to do this emotionally."
