Actor Ji Soo-won got angry at the criticism of presbyopia.
In the 190th episode of TV Chosun's 'Gourmet Heo Young-man's Baekban Travels' (hereinafter referred to as 'Baekban Travels'), which aired on the 24th, 57-year-old actor Ji Soo-won joined the Oido dining table trip in Siheung, Gyeonggi Province.
On this day, Ji Soo-won said, “I live to eat. I really like eating.” To Heo Young-man's response, "You don't have the body type of someone who lives to eat," he joked, "I've got everything inside."
Ji Soo-won also revealed the reason why he debuted as an actor. He majored in fashion studies in college and said, “I started modeling as a part-time job,” saying that he was a fashionista who was recognized since his school days.
He continued, "While I was working as a model, I received an offer to be a movie star. I made my debut in a movie called 'Two Cops'. When they saw that I was a reporter at the time, they contacted me and said, 'Would you like to try it?' They said, 'You guys invited me, so of course I'll use it.' "I thought about it, but I didn't get a call. I was slowly getting tired of it. After holding on for a long time, I called the film company. I said, 'Director, this is Ji Soo-won, will you regret it if you don't hire me?'" Ultimately, Ji Soo-won rose to stardom through 'Two Cops'.
Two people went to eat chicken soup. Ji-won Ji, who was reading the recipe for chicken stew seasoning, paused while reading, and Young-man Heo said, "You can't see it clearly, right?" Ji-won Ji said, "No, I wrote that wrong. What's next?" In response, Heo Young-man sniped at Noan, saying, "You're old enough to do that now." “Teacher!” said Ji Soo-won in a fuss, “I think I look a little older today,” and smoothed his hair for no reason.
The two also visited a seafood store to taste Oido's natural raw oysters. As a merchant was peeling stone, the two naturally joined in and helped, and the merchant, who was looking at Ji-won Ji, was happy and said, “Isn’t that the guy who’s on TV?” Heo Young-man became jealous and said, “I’m on TV too.”
Heo Young-man, who was walking along the beach of Oido, mentioned her husband to Ji-won Ji, asking, "Have you ever felt this kind of atmosphere when you were dating?" Ji-won Ji said, "I don't remember when we were dating. It's been too long."
