• Yoo Jae Suk feels uncomfortable with Ma Dong Seok's early morning call, here's why

    Yoo Jae Suk was uncomfortable with Ma Dong Seok's early morning call.

    In the 164th episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' (hereinafter 'You Quiz'), which was broadcast on October 12, the filmmaker of 'Midas Hand' in Chungmuro, who hit the jackpot with the movie 'The Roundup' for the special feature of 'A Thousand Faces' CEO Jang Won-seok appeared as a guest.

    Actor Ma Dong Seok also participated in the production of 'The Roundup'.

    On this day, CEO Jang Won Seok said, "Ma Dong Seok is extremely passionate about making movies. He often texts me in the morning. If it's urgent, he calls me. It's an idea bank. I only think about movies for 26 hours. '"

    However, Yoo Jae Suk, who heard this, did not have a very good expression. He said, "If the performance is good, it turns into a joke, but if the grades aren't good…"

    Then, CEO Jang Won Seok explained, "It's not a bullying style. I'm not someone who gets annoyed because there is no answer. There are people like that, but senior Ma Dong-seok isn't like that. "The misunderstanding has been cleared up. If you send it at 4 or 5 in the morning, you don't check it right away. That's it."

    CEO Jang Won Seok also drew attention by telling an anecdote that Ma Dong Seok said, "If you have a scenario meeting from the first episode, you act from start to finish."
