Jung Gun-joo and Gong Myung Showcase Genuine Friendship in 'One Week Before I Die'

Jung Gun-joo has showcased his genuine chemistry with Gong Myung.

In the first two episodes of the TVING original series 'One Week Before I Die' (produced by CJ ENM and Studio Mondo, provided by TVING), released on the 3rd, Jung Gun-joo captivated viewers as 'Lee Hong-seok,' the best friend and sole board game partner of Ram-woo, played by Gong Myung.

Despite being in different classes, Hong-seok continues to play board games with Ram-woo during breaks, ensuring he is not alone. He humorously teases Ram-woo by taking photos of his environmental protection tattoo, which Ram-woo drew on his arm to intimidate bullies. Additionally, Hong-seok amusingly announces the rejection of a request made under Ram-woo's name for purchasing inappropriate books in the library, bringing laughter to the audience. However, the scene where Hong-seok follows Ram-woo's hearse, shedding tears at the end of episode 2, adds a layer of poignancy, leaving viewers curious about the events that transpired between the two.

Jung Gun-joo perfectly embodies the bright and witty high school student Lee Hong-seok, even donning a Sailor Moon wig on April Fool's Day while playing board games, capturing the audience's attention. His portrayal of a delightful bromance with Gong Myung brings smiles to viewers, showcasing a relatable friendship dynamic. As Jung Gun-joo continues to impress with his performance, anticipation builds for his future endeavors.

Meanwhile, 'One Week Before I Die,' featuring Jung Gun-joo, is released every Thursday at 12 PM on TVING.
