Shin Dong-yup Gets Emotional Over Jung Sung-hwa's Success in Musical Theater

Shin Dong-yup, known as 'Jjanhyung,' was visibly moved by the success of musical actor Jung Sung-hwa.

On the 22nd, the YouTube channel 'Jjanhyung Shin Dong-yup' featured an episode with musical actors Jung Sung-hwa and Jung Sang-hoon.

During the episode, Jung Sang-hoon commented, "You seem younger than before. It's unbelievable how youthful you look compared to back then," to which he replied, "That can't be true."

Shin Dong-yup explained, "It's not that I'm sad, but it's fascinating how when someone is financially struggling, it shows on their face regardless of age." He continued, "When you become financially stable, things change. You don't have to ask for favors or do things you dislike just to earn a few bucks."

He further elaborated that financial stability allows you to avoid showing your less favorable side to loved ones. "It's a point where you can express your feelings to family and loved ones, and the happiness shared with them changes your expression," Shin Dong-yup added.

Shin Dong-yup congratulated his close juniors, Jung Sung-hwa and Jung Sang-hoon, on their success in musical theater. He shared, "There was an article saying 'Jung Sung-hwa is chasing Jo Seung-woo,' but eventually, he reached the same level as Jo Seung-woo. It made me emotional."

Jung Sung-hwa reminisced about the emotional moment, saying, "While Jo Seung-woo's shows were sold out, my performances had plenty of seats available. The first floor was often more than half empty, but eventually, it filled up, and audiences gave standing ovations."

Meanwhile, Jung Sung-hwa and Jung Sang-hoon revealed that they lived together for about eight years during their college days in Daehangno. Shin Dong-yup humorously added, "People who didn't know them might have thought they were a couple because they were always together."
