Cho Jin-woong has not appeared in a named role for a television drama in seven years, his last such significant credit being "Entourage" in 2016. While Cho Jin-woong's role was not described by JTBC as a special appearance, his presence may have been requested by screenwriter Bae Se-young, with whom he worked on "Intimate Strangers" back in 2018. Supposedly he has strong lovey-dovey chemistry with Ra Mi-ran. "The Good Bad Mother" will premiere on JTBC this coming April 26th.
