Kim Jung-jin Signs with Ace Factory, Continues Strong Performances in 'Boys' Generation' and More

Actor Kim Jung-jin is embarking on a new journey with Ace Factory.

On the 3rd, his agency Ace Factory officially announced their exclusive contract with the actor. Ace Factory expressed their delight in partnering with Kim Jung-jin, stating, "We are happy to be with actor Kim Jung-jin, who possesses boundless potential. We will provide full support so he can showcase his infinite capabilities in various projects moving forward."

Since his debut in the 2022 film 'Christmas Carol,' Kim Jung-jin garnered attention for his exceptional ability to embody diverse characters. He has since expanded his acting range through numerous works, including the Coupang Play series 'Boys' Generation,' MBC's 'Intimate Betrayers,' JTBC's 'Decent Sales,' 'Face Me,' and 'Newtopia,' showcasing varied character transformations.

Notably, in 'Boys' Generation,' he played Yang Cheol-hong, the leader of the Bu-yeo Agricultural High School gang, delicately portraying a surprisingly clumsy character beneath a tough exterior, which captured viewers' attention. He then starred as Choi Young-min, the leader of a violent runaway youth group in 'Intimate Betrayers,' and lovingly completed the role of Dae-geun, a straightforward but romantically inept character in JTBC's 'Decent Sales.'

His performances earned him the Male Rookie Award at the '2024 Seoul Con Apan Star Awards.' In the recently released Coupang Play series 'Newtopia,' he played Private Gyeong-sik of the anti-aircraft unit, receiving praise for maximizing tension with his fluid emotional acting.

With his remarkable versatility and strong presence, anticipation is high for Kim Jung-jin's future projects with Ace Factory. The agency is home to actors such as Lee Jong-suk, Lee Joon-hyuk, Yoo Jae-myung, Lee Si-young, and more.

Netizens reacted positively to Kim Jung-jin's move to Ace Factory, commenting, "Cheering for actor Kim Jung-jin's career!" and "He was so impressive in 'Boys' Generation'." Many expressed excitement for his future projects, with particular praise for his wide acting spectrum.
