Actor Cho Jung-seok expressed his feelings about trying to play a dramatic cross-dressing role in the movie 'pilot'.

At the press and distribution premiere of the movie 'pilot' held at Lotte Cinema World Tower in Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 16th, Cho Jung-seok said, `Many cast members did not recognize me in the scene where I first turned into Han Jung-mi.'

'Pilot', which will be released on the 31st, is a comedy that takes place when Han Jung-woo, who became unemployed overnight in the Star Pilot, succeeds in re-employment after a drastic transformation, and director Kim Han-kyul of 'Most Ordinary Dating' took the megaphone.

In particular, the expectations of prospective audiences are pouring in due to the enthusiastic performance of Cho Jung-seok, who challenged for a two-person role. Cho Jung-seok portrayed Han Jung-mi who succeeded in re-employment from star pilot Han Jung-woo in various ways.

In response, he said, "While filming the movie, I sympathized with Jungwoo so much. First of all, I'm the head of a family, and I made my debut in the musical 'Nutcracker' in 2004 and ran to this place nonstop, and I think I sometimes had the thoughts and lines that Jungwoo had at the end, and the scenes that I talked to my mother. I hope many people can sympathize with the character Han Jungwoo after watching the movie," he said.

In addition, Cho Jung-seok, who tried to dress up in an unconventional way through his work, said, `There is a scene where when I first transform into Han Jung-mi and walk in shoes, I get a suggestion from a fitness trainer"There were a lot of people when I filmed that scene, but everyone didn't know I was Cho Jung-seok. So I remember standing together all the time," he said with a smile.
