[talk] Yang Jo-wi, who appeared in the New Jeans music video without any guarantee!

While the new music video for the group New Jeans is gaining attention for featuring 'Squid Game' actor Jung Ho-yeon and global star Tony Leung Jo-wi, the behind-the-scenes story behind the production of the music video has been revealed.

On the 23rd, 20th at midnight, New Jeans released the side A version of the music video for ' Cool With You ', one of the triple title tracks of their 2nd mini album 'Get Up', and the side B versions of 'Cool With You' & 'Get Up'.

In this music video, Jung Ho-yeon plays the role of Eros, who gives up his status as a god and chooses love, and shows delicate emotional acting. Despite his short appearance, Tony Leung leaves a strong impression with just his eyes and aura. Although neither of them says a single line, they maximize the narrative of the music video, which is a modern adaptation of the Greek myth of 'Psyche and Eros'.

"Although it was a short appearance, I really wanted an actor with charisma and presence. After much thought, I thought of Tony Leung," he said. "Despite his short appearance, Tony Leung showed his enthusiasm by thoroughly analyzing the script in advance and personally suggesting the gray hair styling for the music video. He received praise from the staff for doing his best on set, living up to his reputation as a great actor."

The casting of Yang Jo-wi was made possible by the executive producer Min Hee-jin herself. Executive producer Min sent the scenario to Yang Jo-wi through an acquaintance, and Yang Jo-wi, who confirmed the music video story, appeared in an attractive character without any guarantee, regardless of the amount of screen time.

Yang Jo-wi and Jung Ho-yeon shared their thoughts on their appearance through Adore. Yang Jo-wi said, “We had a good connection, and I wanted to give a small gift to Korean fans,” expressing his love for Korea. Jung Ho-yeon said, “All the staff members, including New Jeans, who I’ve always been a fan of, and the Dolphin Kidnapping Group, worked together to film happily. I hope that the joyful energy is conveyed to the viewers.”

They say that CEO Min Hee-jin arranged for Yang Jo-wi to appear in the New Jeans music video without any guarantees.

You really have talent!
