Rising Star Cho Jun-young Reflects on 'Crushology 101' Finale

Cho Jun-young, a rising star from SM Entertainment who debuted in the 2020 JTBC drama 'Live On', has shared his thoughts on the conclusion of 'Bunny and Brothers'.

In the final episode of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama 'Bunny and Brothers', which aired on the 17th, Cha Ji-won (played by Cho Jun-young) gracefully ended his unrequited love for Bunny (played by No Jung-eui) and took a step towards his future by joining the Chaon Foundation as an intern.

Cho Jun-young, who portrayed the role of Cha Ji-won, a third-generation chaebol with everything but nothing, expressed his happiness in playing the endlessly kind character. He stated, "I was happy to play the endlessly kind 'Cha Ji-won'. It was a meaningful project where I learned a lot from working with great actors and excellent staff in a joyful and passionate environment."

Known for his gentle charisma and unwavering dedication to Bunny, Cho Jun-young revealed, "I tried to be a reliable presence for 'Bunny' and my sister 'Cha Hye-won' (played by Chae Je-ni) by taking care of the actors off-screen as well."

Cho Jun-young, who gained attention for his steadfast devotion, recalled his most memorable line when Bunny doubted his sincerity, saying, "I don't act like this with just any girl." He shared, "It was the first time Cha Ji-won expressed his feelings, and I prepared various versions of the line to capture the moment when he stepped out of his comfort zone."

Cho Jun-young concluded the drama with heartfelt gratitude, saying, "I hope you felt excitement and joy while watching 'Bunny and Brothers'. Thank you for staying with us until the end. Meeting 'Cha Ji-won' was a special time for me, and I will continue to work hard to show you various sides of myself."
