It is no exaggeration to say that the year of 2024 Cheongryong was the year of actor Jung Haein (36). He made a successful acting transformation by challenging for the first time in his life in the sequel to the movie 'Veteran'Veteran' that returned after nine years. As the presence of villain Cho Tae-oh in the first film was so intense, the villain in the second film also received hot public attention.

Jung Haein, who plays the youngest detective in the violent crime investigation unit, Park Sun-woo, completely built her own character with high-quality action and eye acting that goes between good and evil. This year, he won the hearts of 7.52 million viewers by hitting the Chuseok theater district, winning the Chung Ha-won Popular Star Award and the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 45th Blue Dragon Film Awards held on the 29th of last month. The Best Supporting Actor Award was expected to be the fiercest even before the awards ceremony. After in-depth discussions, the judges, who selected Jung Hae-in as the winner, praised him in unison, saying, `He has grown into an actor who can lead the overall flow of the work.'

Jung Hae-in, who met with Sports Chosun before the joy of the award went away, felt rewarded as he received the " award and felt relieved." If the expectation is high, disappointment is also high, so I was happy to receive the award even though I wasn't thinking about it at all. Kim Mi-hye, CEO of Sam Company, who is Jung-min's wife, also sent my mother a congratulatory text. The two of you got close at the Cannes Film Festival and are still getting along like a family." Also, since 'Veteran2' is an action-packed movie, stunt actors suffered a lot at the scene, and martial arts directors Yoo Sang-seop and Jang Han-seung also won the technical award, which made me feel good," he said.




When asked if he had any regrets about not being able to express his gratitude to his family at the time of the award, Jung Hae-in replied with a smile, "'Both my mom and dad have a T (rational) MBTI, so I don't feel sorry for that or anything.' In the meantime, "I was able to act while receiving great love in the family's fence. Thank you for raising me well."

Earlier, Jung Hae-in took the stage as the presenter of the Best Picture Award with Hwang Jung-min at the 43rd Blue Dragon Film Awards held in 2022. Two years later, he held the Best Supporting Actor trophy in his arms, and he was the first to share the honor of winning the award with Hwang Jung-min. "The moment I was on stage as a presenter with Hwang Jung-min passed like a panorama," Jung Hae-in said. "He didn't say the script prepared by the senior. I told you because the senior's tone and tone at the time of the award reminded me of Pastor Jeon Yo-hwan of 'Sulinam', but did you hear the ad-lib 'Satan?He accepted '" and "After winning the Best Supporting Actor Award, the senior held my hand tightly and said 'Congratulations so much '." Even if you didn't say it for a long time, I felt the sincerity and warmed my heart." When asked if he had an after-party after winning the award, he had a simple dinner with CJ ENM's promotional marketing team, CEO Kang Hye-jung of Foreign Travelers Kang, Vice President Cho Sung-min, Director Ryu Seung-wan, and Senior Director Shin Seung-hwan of Justice. Jung-min also stopped by because he had something to do later. "After that day, director Ryu left the country to film "Humint", and I can't wait to meet him and serve him delicious food." revealed the wind.

Jung Hae-in created several famous scenes at this year's Blue Dragon Film Awards. In the Netflix 'D.P. series, Koo Chang-hwan, who was loved as a duo of Jun Ho-yeol (Jun Ho + Ho-yeol), and Chung Ha-won shared the popular star award and enjoyed the joy together. Jung Hae-in, who sent heartfelt congratulations on the award of the old exchange, was the next winner, and as soon as his name was called, he was surprised and made viewers laugh with a puzzled expression.

Jung Hae-in, who recalled the time of the award, smiled, saying "I sat right next to my brother, and I think the seating arrangement was a divine move." It was then the only category where fans worked hard to vote for the Popular Star Award, so they knew whether they would win or not. When Dong-hwan's name was first called as the winner, he thought only one person would receive it, so he thought 'I must have been turned upside down at the end after competing until the end.' But (Han) Jimin suddenly called my name. 'Huh?I was very surprised"I was very aware of the love given by the fans, and I said thank you at the fan meeting held two days after the awards ceremony."




He was also honored with the Best Work Award of the 'Seoul Spring' team, which marked the end of the awards ceremony. Jung Hae-in showed off her brilliant presence by appearing in a special film 'Seoul Spring' released last year. Hwang Jung-min and Lee Sung-min also showed their warm seniority by singing Jung Hae-in, who worked hard for the work, on stage. Jung Hae-in briefly appeared on "Hwang Jung-min's hidden son" at this point, but he was sitting and celebrating because he thought he was not standing on the spot, but I didn't know Jung-min and Sung-min would sing it at the end."

Finally, Jung Hae-in thanked the audience for watching 'Veteran 2' at the theater and reflected on the meaning of the work. He said "I'm just grateful that so many people have seen the work. It is arrogant to take 10 million for granted. There's nothing natural in the world. Compared to the previous episode, 7 million is a huge dream number. The stage greeting of Veteran2 was held until the fifth week, and Shin Seung-hwan was in charge of hosting 330 stage greetings. You really need to win the MC Award for stage personality" he expressed his admiration. Then "I tried to have a habit of not comparing myself to others during my acting career. If I could, I would make myself unhappy and not be able to fully enjoy this moment. So I tend to avoid that. Of course, there was a burden to act well, but the audience liked it enough, he said, expressing satisfaction. On the trophy 'Blue Dragon', we celebrated the Year of the Blue Dragon in 2024, and I was born in 1988. I think we've got a really big luck coming up.'
