Actor and now a rookie author Ha Jung Woo talked about how he felt to release a book.

Ha Jung Woo attended the release day press conference in Seoul on the 12^th for his essay compilation book and said “I first declined since I am still in the starting stages and I was shy.”

In this book, he wrote about his acting, family, love, friendship, music, and his life. He also included about 60 drawings that he drew himself and talked about his thoughts on famous artists such as Picasso.

Ha Jung Woo said “The reason I changed my mind and decided to release this book for the fans. Even if I acted in a movie, the media wouldn’t say anything about it but the fans stood by and supported me. I wanted to share with them how I prepared for society before my 20s and what my thoughts were throughout my life.”

When he was asked about who helped with the drawings, he said “The people that helped me with the book were the writers from my various works and Go Hyun Jung gave me lots of help for the drawings. She told me to do my work more professionally, and that gave me the drive to try harder writing my work.”

He also said “I’ve prepared the book little by little since 2009 and I was talking things over with people whenever I had the time. I thought that if I finished with my filming in 4-5 days in a week, I could rest and write for the remaining days.”

About the book title “Good Feeling,” he said “I use the phrase ‘this person has a good feeling’ whenever I meet someone and that was why I used it for the title. I wanted to share all the ‘good feelings’ I have to the people that read my book.”
