Jung Woo-sung and Lee Jung-jae Spotted in Beijing Amidst Controversy

Jung Woo-sung, embroiled in a paternity controversy, has been spotted in China.

On the 3rd, a video featuring actors Jung Woo-sung and Lee Jung-jae surfaced on online communities both domestically and internationally. According to reports, Jung Woo-sung and Lee Jung-jae recently visited Beijing, China, to meet with local entertainment industry figures. It is said that they visited an entertainment company affiliated with Alibaba Group to meet with representatives.

Previously, the two actors made headlines when they were seen visiting a cigar bar with Chinese actress Zhou Dongyu, as revealed on Chinese social media platform Weibo.

Regarding this, Artist Company, the agency representing Lee Jung-jae and Jung Woo-sung, stated, "The visit was for meetings with Chinese entertainment companies they have known for some time." They further explained the meeting with Zhou Dongyu, saying, "A production company representative conveyed that actress Zhou Dongyu wanted to greet Lee Jung-jae and Jung Woo-sung, so they exchanged greetings."

This appearance is particularly noteworthy as it marks Jung Woo-sung's first public sighting since he apologized for the paternity controversy at the Blue Dragon Film Awards five months ago.

In November of last year, Jung Woo-sung was caught up in a paternity scandal when model Moon Ga-bi announced the birth of her child, revealing Jung Woo-sung as the father. At the Blue Dragon Film Awards held the same month, Jung Woo-sung expressed his remorse, saying, "I sincerely apologize for causing concern and disappointment to everyone who has shown me love and support. I will accept all criticism and bear it. As a father, I will fulfill my responsibilities to my son to the end."
