Jung Il-woo, who still lives with his parents, admitted, "I've never lived apart from them. As an actor, my parents take care of many things, so I honestly don't feel the need to live independently."

Recently, 'My Little Old Boy' featured marriage announcements from stars like Lee Sang-min, Kim Jun-ho, and Kim Jong-min. At 37, Jung Il-woo revealed, "I've never been involved in a dating rumor.

Jung Il-woo, who once described his ideal type as "a wise person with qualities to learn from, and someone who uses chopsticks well," reflected, "You really have to be careful with your words. Something I said 19 years ago still follows me." He added that his views have evolved, saying, "I used to think you could tell a lot about someone's upbringing by how they use chopsticks, but now it doesn't matter much."
Known for his keen sense of smell, Jung surprised everyone by revealing he owns over 200 perfumes. When asked, "What if you meet your destined person, but they have a strong body odor or foot odor?" he humorously replied, "I wouldn't force myself to like it. It's their natural scent, and if there's foot odor, I can help clean it. If it's severe, I'll prescribe socks," drawing laughter.
