Park Jung-min said at the production presentation of the Coupang Play series 'Newtopia' held at the Conrad Hotel in Yeouido, Seoul, on the morning of the 7th, `I was a fan of BLACKPINK, but I never imagined that I would work with Ji-Soo over words.'
'Newtopia' is a story about soldier Jae-yoon and a bear lord running to each other across downtown Seoul, where they were attacked by zombies, and Yoon Sung-hyun, the director of the films 'Watchmen' and 'Time for the Hunt', took the megaphone.
Park Jung-min, who played Jae-yoon, a late soldier's boyfriend, said "Jae-yoon joined the army late, so his girlfriend, Young-ju, has already gotten a job" He thinks about whether it is right to continue this meeting, but eventually decides to say goodbye for Young-ju. After that, after experiencing a sudden disaster situation, I realize the importance of the lord and run."
He then shared his feelings about working with Ji-Soo on romance. Park Jung-min "There is a cabinet that only collects precious things in my house, and I have a black pink signed CD at the front. I was such a fan of BLACKPINK that I asked Kim Go-eun to get an autograph before. It was such an honor to see that it read 'Thank you Jung-min' on one side and 'Thank you Jung-min' on the other. I never imagined that I would be talking to Ji-Soo and working together on acting."
Meanwhile, the Coupang Play series 'Newtopia' will be released for the first time at 8 p.m. on February 7.
