Comedian Roh Woo-jin is starting anew with J1Space.

Jay One Space announced on the 13th that it has signed an exclusive contract with Roh Woo-jin. The agency said it will do its best to support Roh Woo-jin to become more active as an all-around entertainer.

Roh Woo-jin made his debut as a comedian in KBS's 20th open recruitment in 2005, gaining huge popularity with the 'master' section of 'Gag Concert', and later appeared on various programs such as SBS 'Law of the Jungle' and was loved by viewers.



Jay One Space added that he will make every effort to help Noh Woo-jin overcome his past mistakes and start anew, and that we ask for a lot of support for his sincere change and growth. Regarding future plans, Roh Woo-jin said he is working on creating digital content that can participate together from the planning stage to implement donations and social contributions. Through this project, he expressed his willingness to share happiness, donate, and communicate with the public, focusing on the three keywords 'Sharing', 'Donation', and 'Happiness'.

Noh Woo-jin expressed his determination to return to his initial start and rebuild public trust through J1 Space. He promised to never forget his past mistakes and to continue to be more humble and sincere as a comedian.



Meanwhile, Roh Woo-jin was caught drunk driving on Olympic Boulevard in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul in July 2020. At the time of the accident, the blood alcohol level was reportedly at the level of revocation of the license. In response, Roh Woo-jin could not shake off the thought of a moment's lack and made a mistake. Inexcusable, this was my apparent misbehavior, and it should never have happened. I sincerely apologize. I'm sorry."
