Jeong Jinwoon Abruptly Leaves Yumi's Cells
Actor Jung Jin-woon, formerly of 2AM, has suddenly withdrawn from the musical 'Yumi's Cells'. This decision comes just 13 days after the casting announcement.
The production company, Sam Company, officially announced on social media on the 16th, "Jung Jin-woon, who was cast as character 109, will not be able to participate in this performance due to scheduling conflicts." Information about additional cast members will be released later.

The timing of Jung Jin-woon's withdrawal is coincidental. At the time of the casting announcement on the 3rd, he was riding high on the success of his recent film 'The King and the Clown,' which surpassed 16 million viewers.

Furthermore, there was significant online interest in the identity of the '109th cell' character that Jung Jin-woon was set to play. 109th cell is an original character created for the musical, not appearing in the original webtoon, and is only known to have a 'mysterious personality.'
As fans of the original work were building curiosity about the character, the actor for that role departed 75 days before the musical's opening, leading to reactions like, "The mysterious cell, which isn't even in the original work, has mysteriously disappeared."
