Jang Yoon-jung has joined the cast of 'Nego King'.
On the 20th, the YouTube channel 'Dalla Studio' released a video titled 'Finally, President Jang Joins Nego King [Nego King] Ep.0'.
In the video, Jang Yoon-jung met with the 'Nego King' staff and expressed her initial surprise, saying, "When I first received the offer, I wondered, 'Why did they cast me?'" Regarding her title as 'President', she explained, "When I used to attend many events, I was introduced as a 'walking small business'. Now, it feels more natural as I've aged." When the production team mentioned wanting to show a stronger side of her, different from her friendly image, she nodded in agreement.
She also shared her husband Do Kyung-wan's reaction. Jang Yoon-jung, who kept her casting a secret, said, "When I was leaving in the morning, he asked, 'Where are you going today?' I said, 'I'm going to Nego King,' and he replied, 'Why are you doing Nego King?'" She humorously admitted, "Even when we travel, my husband is the one who negotiates prices, not me," causing laughter.
What is Jang Yoon-jung's Shopping Philosophy?
Jang Yoon-jung revealed her shopping criteria. "I shop every day. But I've learned not to buy impulsively just because I need something. I put items in my cart and wait until I feel 'it won't go lower than this' before purchasing," she said. She added, "I read a lot of reviews. The first few pages often have promotional content, so I look further back at the lower-rated ones."
Jang Yoon-jung hinted at her intense negotiation style. She said, "I know a lot of presidents. I want to negotiate for expensive products like cars and electronics. Saving on huge advertising costs won't be a loss for the representatives," adding, "It's scarier when you do it with a smile. You have to create an atmosphere where they can't refuse. To persuade them that it's reasonable, you need to study." She also confessed, "If I'm going to do it, I'll do it; if not, I won't. If they drag it out ambiguously, it annoys me. I'll just say, 'Let's not do it.'"
Bodyguards for the 'President' Aura?
The production team summoned bodyguards for the 'final boss' Jang Yoon-jung. Surrounded by a group in black suits, Jang Yoon-jung, who said "It's scary," took charge of the atmosphere, asking them to laugh and applaud when she speaks, showcasing her 'boss' traits.
Jang Yoon-jung declared, "From now on, I will start Nego King with you. I will push harder than ever," and in the teaser, she raised expectations by stating, "I don't look at price tags."
