There was no trace of exhaustion in Ji Chang-wook, who had a packed schedule in the previous year, as he managed to exude an attractive and sexy aura despite taking on one role from another.

Since the start of 2024, Ji barely caught any rest. He was the lead star in the series “Welcome to Samdal-ri,” “Queen Woo,” and “Gangnam B-Side,” which followed the romantic comedy, historical, and action genres, respectively. He also took on the lead role as the mysterious Andy in the film “Revolver.”

Not to mention holding a fan meeting in the Philippines and Milan Fashion Week, on top of other appearances.

Yet the actor doesn’t believe that he evolved into a “sexier version” of himself. He shared that he focuses on transforming himself in every project he accepts, with a keen attention to detail.

"This series is not just about the two teams playing; it's about reviving the spirit of hockey in Delhi. We hope this will inspire more young players from the region to take up the game," Harmanpreet stated in a press release issued by Hockey India.

“I wouldn’t say that I transformed myself,” Ji said during a virtual conference for the action drama “Gangnam B-Side.”

“I put a lot of detail into what I wear, including the accessories and weapons I would have, and what kind of hairstyle and makeup I would wear. Basically, I put a lot of thought into how I would look like,” he further explained.

Since “Gangnam B-Side” and “Revolver” were of the action genre, Ji shared that he’s the type of actor who focuses on the pre-set scenes, apart from delving into the “violent” side of action.

“There are pre-set scenes [in action works] on how is this person fighting, why is this person fighting, and where is this person fighting. I focused more on those elements and built those elements together. That’s going to make the scene more convincing,” he said.

Hype is building up for the actor who’s set to lead the upcoming drama “The Manipulated,” where he will star opposite actor-singer Doh Kyungsoo. It tells the story of Tae-joong (Ji) who gets revenge against Yo Han (Doh), who orchestrated the heinous crime that sent the former to jail.
