My Take
What I respect most about Joo Jin-mo is that he is an award-winning actor first and a celebrity second. Born Park Jin-tae in Seoul, he won the Grand Bell for Happy End and the Baeksang Best Actor prize for A Frozen Flower, while also leaving a mark in 200 Pounds Beauty and the series Empress Ki. He moves between film, stage and television with a rare blend of sensuality and gravitas. I always trust actors who earn recognition through performance rather than image, and men like him tend to grow richer and more compelling with age.
