In the released interview, Ok Jin-wook talked about his character Jo In-beom in the Netflix series ″True Education,″ saying, ″When creating a character, I always tend to draw from within myself. Although the appearance is different, Jo In-beom’s playful and bright side is also a part of me. However, Jo In-beom is a character who pursues external strength, whereas I tend to endure hardships inwardly and become internally strong, so that aspect is quite different.″ He also revealed that he is learning a lot about himself through acting, stating, ″When monitoring, there are times when expressions or voices appear that I have never seen before, and I keep discovering that there are various sides within me.″ Regarding his mindset as an actor, he said, ″Whether doing musicals or filming, I tend to trust the experts for parts that are not my responsibility, like sound or camera, and don’t worry much. I think my part ends the moment I finish acting in front of the camera. The reactions or results that come afterward are beyond my control, so I always try to keep myself grounded by not expecting or imagining them in advance.″ Ok Jin-wook has appeared in various works including KBS dramas such as ″Even If You Fool Me, It’s a Dream,″ ″After Winter, Cherry Blossoms,″ ″Third Person Revenge,″ and ″Running Mate,″ as well as musicals like ″The Creature″ and ″The Show! Silla-Gyeongju.″ Recently, he received recognition for his singing and acting skills in the musical ″Girlfriend,″ where he played the role of Will.
