'Pilot' is a movie depicting the story of Jung Woo, who lost his job overnight, and succeeds in re-employment due to an unexpected identity laundering. Jo Jung Suk is expected to bring laughter to the audience with his unique cheerfulness through the character Jung Woo. 

Jo Jung Suk began his career in theater, starring in ‘Spring Awakening’, ‘Hedwig and the Angry Inch’, and the stage adaptation of ‘The Harmonium in My Memory’, among many other musicals and plays. After nearly a decade on the stage, Jo Jung Suk made his film debut as a comedic supporting actor in the 2012 box office hit ‘Architecture 101’, which became his breakout role.
