Last year, Ji Chang-wook led global OTT rankings with every project he appeared in, including 'Gangnam B-side', 'The Worst Evil', and 'Welcome to Samdalri'. He is not only a model for mainstream brands, which are a measure of popularity, but also proves his brand power by being active in over 10 different advertisements across fashion, beauty, and health supplements.
