Veteran Korean Actor Jang Dong-gun Talks Talents He Would Like To Work With & His Search For An “Ordinary” Role


Korean star Jang Dong-gun was awarded honours at the Asian Film Awards in Hong Kong, and picked out two actors and three directors that he is especially keen to work with.

This list includes fellow actors and friends Hwang Jung-min and Lee Byung-hun, as well as directors like Bong Joon-ho, Park Chan-wook and Kim Jee-woon. “Over my past works, I have done a lot of roles that are not common, that you can’t see in real life usually, such as a soldier in the middle of war, a killer, as well as a zombie. Jang recently wrapped production for Korean action feature Night Fever, which is slated for release in summer this year.
