Jung Soon-won expressed his desire to be remembered as an actor with a wide spectrum of acting.

While SBS's Friday-Saturday drama `Connection" (played by Lee Hyun, directed by Kim Moon-kyo) ended with its highest viewership of 17.1%, actor Jeong Soon-won, who plays the role of 'Heo Joo-song' in the play, responded to the interview to commemorate the end.

SBS 'Connection', which ended on the 6th, is an addiction-tracking suspense that reveals the whole story of the connection, a deteriorated friendship that has been around for 20 years with the death of a friend as a clue.

In the play, Jung Soon-won played Heo Joo-song, the CEO of the insurance company 'Tusta Holdings', which is full of curiosity and affection for humans, and helped Park Jun-seo's insurance and will.

Regarding playing the character Heo Joo-song, Jeong Soon-won said, `I thought it was a great blessing because there were many parts that could be challenged actingly. I want to say thank you to Director Kim Moon Kyo for trusting me"I think it's a blessing to work with good actors, and the scene was so good." They supported me in the direction I wanted to express and filmed it effectively. I think I was able to show the acting I wanted to do to my heart's content.

Regarding the emergence of various social problems such as drug addiction, infidelity, and media collusion, the work seems to develop into a social problem by making bad choices and lying to hide it with the purpose of 'Let's keep it to ourselves'. Then, there will be good victims. While working on the work, I thought that I would not make mistakes as much as possible, but even so, I thought that being honest and punished before the truth could contribute to society."

Finally, when asked what kind of actor he wants to be remembered as, Jeong Soon-won "I like Yoo Hae-jin. "I felt it while acting as Heo Joo-song, but I think he performed a wide spectrum of acting, which was light and funny in some situations, but when he was serious, he was serious and serious. I want to remain an actor who can show more diverse performances in the future."
