Jay continued, “The character I played in ‘President’ was engaged in depressing situations, but my character for this drama is bright and rather interesting. Viewers will be seeing a completely different style of acting from me. I am not really an active person but I think I act better as a clumsy character rather than a serious one”.

Besides that, Jay also joked about YoonA who is a sunbae (senior) to him in the field of acting. He said, “I didn’t get any (acting) tips from YoonA. Perhaps we aren’t that close although we are in the same company”.
