A past interview from 2004 with actor Jung Woo Sung has resurfaced online, causing a stir among netizens. The interview, originally published by Elle, was brought to light once again after the recent revelation that Jung is the biological father of model Moon Gabi’s child.
Resurfacing of 2004 Interview
The interview has quickly gained attention, with over 38,000 views on an online community board since its resurfacing. In the interview, Jung candidly discussed topics like his fantasies and past one-night stands, which raised eyebrows among many.
When asked by the interviewer if he had ever had sex outside of the bedroom, Jung answered humorously:
“Elle: Have you ever had sex in a place other than in bed?
Jung Woo Sung: Tons. Haha. No, but rather, I have many fantasies. You know, like in a bar? I want to do it in one of the bathrooms there.
Elle: Tell us the number of times you’ve slept with an actress you were filming together with.
Jung Woo Sung: Hahah. That question is not just for me but also targets the other person. This puts me in a difficult position. Anyway…it’s not Son Ye Jin.
Elle: No, We have another one. Are you not mad at the types of questions we’ve given you so far?
Jung Woo Sung: It’s fun. I myself as more of an ‘open-minded’ person, want to talk about this more, but am always disappointed that I can’t. I guess a day will come when I can answer, ‘I slept with them, but it was a bit boring’ to the question ‘Who did you sleep with?’”
He also mentioned having one-night stands in the past.
Elle: Actresses can meet you closely and observe you. Your inward charms must be just as grand as your visuals.
Jung Woo Sung: I wouldn’t know what charms I show. But I believe that that is the most important thing. Women’s inward charm is more important than big breasts or double eyelids. The scent is strong when a charm like that comes out with just one word. It is sexier than any fishnet stocking.
Elle: You probably didn’t think like that in your twenties.
Jung Woo Sung: I didn’t think too deeply about women then. I think I looked more at not only the visuals but also the aura. So, instead of looking inward, I remember sleeping together because of that moment of charm I felt then.
Netizens React to the Interview
Many netizens were taken aback by the nature of both the questions and Jung’s responses. Comments on an online forum expressed discomfort with the interview:
- “I’m more shocked that this was an Elle interview.”
- “Both the interview questions and answers are dirty.”
- “Ew.”
- “But does the reporter choose the questions? Aside from Jung’s answers, the questions are so uncomfortable.”
- “Why is he answering these types of questions?”
- “Acting as if they are woke.”
- “These questions look like they would be from MAXIM magazine..so dirty.”
Some questioned the appropriateness of the questions, pointing out that they seemed more fitting for a different kind of magazine, like MAXIM. Others were critical of the actor for engaging in such conversations.
Jung Woo Sung’s Current Situation
In the midst of the controversy surrounding the interview, it was also reported that Jung Woo Sung has been in a long-term relationship, adding another layer of complexity to the ongoing news about his personal life.
