Model Joo Woo Jae revealed the reason why he dropped out during the second semester of his fourth year in college.

On the 4th episode of KBS Cool FM's 'Park Myung-soo's Radio Show' (hereinafter 'Radio Show'), model Joo Woo Jae appeared as a guest in the corner of the legend.

On this day, Joo Woo Jae surprised DJ Park Myung-soo by mentioning an episode in which he started modeling after dropping out of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Hongik University in the second semester of his fourth year.

Joo Woo Jae said, "I had to write a thesis before graduation, but before graduation, I wanted to try something else. At that time, there was a time when current students had more merit than graduates,".

Joo Woo Jae said that the business he started haphazardly turned out to be an unexpected success. He recalled the past, saying, "At that time, I sat on a cushion for a while. They liked giving my parents pocket money, and they didn't stop me from taking a leave of absence."

He continued, "I was going to return to school and graduate when the deadline was over, but I thought it would be better to continue doing business than to go to another semester and get a diploma,".

He also explained, "I conducted the radio by myself for about a year and a half while doing business, and more people than I expected were listening to it."

Then, "I got a casting offer and accepted it, but I went straight to the show without learning how to walk," and made everyone laugh by revealing the reason why he suddenly started modeling.

The When Life Gives You Tangerines cast melted fans’ hearts once again — this time off-screen!

On April 15, the VIP premiere of the film Yadang took place at Megabox COEX in Samseong-dong, Seoul, and it quickly turned into a Poksak reunion.

The event was already buzzing with big names like Uhm Tae Woong (who made his first appearance in 8 years), Lee Min Ho, Ha Ji Won, Lee Joo Young, Hyeri, Lee Yu Bi, Kim Sung Kyun, and even Single’s Inferno 4's Lee Si An.

But the surprise appearance of severalWhen Life Gives You Tangerines cast members made fans super emotional.

IU, who played Gwansik’s daughter Geum Myeong in the Netflix series, was spotted quietly entering the theater wearing a mask. A fan who noticed her shared a photo, writing, “Poksak daughter Geum Myeong is here!”

Kim Seon Ho also showed up and quickly got attention. Fans recognized him despite the mask and commented, “Chung Seop is here too!” and “Park Hae Joon’s son-in-law came!” Kim Seon Ho made a special appearance in the series as Geum Myeong’s husband.

Kang Yoo Seok, who played Eun Myeong Yi (Gwansik’s son), also came to support his on-screen dad. Fans left sweet comments like “The son is so thoughtful!”

And of course, Choi Dae Hoon — better known as “Hak Ssi Ahjussi” — made fans smile with his bright energy. People couldn’t stop talking about him, saying things like “He came to see his in-laws’ movie,” and “The whole When Life Gives You Tangerines family is here!”

Before the event, Park Hae Joon shared in an interview with Xports News that he wasn’t sure who would show up, saying, “Everyone’s really busy, so it depends on the situation. But I’d be really happy if we could meet again after a long time.”

Well, they did meet again — and fans couldn’t be happier.

In Poksak, Park Hae Joon played the loving father Gwansik, but in Yadang, he takes on a much tougher role as a drug squad detective who never gives up on catching criminals. His transformation is already gaining attention from fans eager to see him in a new light.

Meanwhile, Yadang officially hit theaters on April 16.
