Korean Actors Praise Park Jihoon's Weight Loss Acting
Actors Jung Tae-woo and Lee Min-woo praised the acting of singer and actor Park Ji-hoon. The 524th episode of JTBC's entertainment show "Knowing Bros," aired on April 11, featured a "King Danjong and Teacher" special, with Lee Min-woo and Jung Tae-woo, who are called the original King Danjongs, and Korean history instructor Seol Min-seok appearing as guests.
When asked about Park Ji-hoon's acting as a senior King Danjong, Jung Tae-woo said, "I felt Ji-hoon's gaze was different from 'Weak Hero.' He had a sad yet warm expression, with a scary charisma within. He's quite similar to me," he commented, not sparing his praise.

Jung Tae-woo mentioned watching the movie "The Man Who Lived with the King," in which Park Ji-hoon appeared, and added, "When I first played King Danjong at 12, I was just a victim without understanding the situation. Here, Ji-hoon has the blood of royalty flowing through him without him even realizing it. His desire to appeal rather than remain silent, and his wish to do something for the country, were very well portrayed. I enjoyed watching it because the friendship, deeper than that of family, was well depicted."

Regarding Park Ji-hoon's acting preparation process, Lee Min-woo said, "What I found amazing is that it's not easy for an actor to maintain their physical and mental state for over three months of filming. Hearing that he prepared and adjusted himself to achieve this artificially, I thought he was an amazing friend," highly praising his efforts.
Meanwhile, the movie "The Man Who Lived with the King" is set in Cheongnyeongpo in 1457 and tells the story of a village chief who voluntarily exiled himself for the village's prosperity and the young former king who was exiled after being dethroned. The film surpassed 16 million cumulative viewers, ranking second in domestic box office history for highest-grossing films and first in cumulative revenue. Park Ji-hoon, who passionately played the role of King Danjong Yi Hong-wi, earned the nickname "Danjong Oppa."
