Ji Changwook’s first role was teenager Jinseo in an episode of Sleeping Beauty (2008) as part of the independent film Sleeping Beauty. He was not noted at the time, but the film was later talked about as his debut showing the actor’s fresh rookie years. In Sleeping Beauty, his first on-screen appearance, the actor played a pretty boy who was asleep with a nosebleed in the woods. Jinseo, who killed his grandfather while trying to protect the pregnant girl Sujin (Lee Nari), mutters, “This is an opportunity, it’s going to happen anyway.” But the weak young man cannot run far away from what he did and eventually chooses to escape reality by inhaling gas in the bathroom of the express bus terminal.

After being busy with dramas and musical The Days, Ji Changwook returned to the film world with Fabricated City (2017).
