Actor So Ji-sub Gifts Solid Gold to Entire Cast and Crew of 'Chief Detective 1958'

Actor So Ji-sub has once again demonstrated his generosity by gifting solid gold bars to the entire cast and crew of the SBS drama 'Chief Detective 1958.' The heartwarming gesture came to light as staff members shared photos of the precious gifts on social media.

Each gold bar, weighing 1 gram, was accompanied by a note expressing So Ji-sub's gratitude. "I felt great inspiration and happiness working together on this project," the note read. "I am always thankful to everyone who made Chief Detective 1958 shine by quietly doing their best in their respective positions." The actor reportedly distributed these gifts to approximately 300 individuals shortly after filming concluded.

I felt great inspiration and happiness working together on this project. I am always thankful to everyone who made Chief Detective 1958 shine by quietly doing their best in their respective positions.

This is not the first time So Ji-sub has surprised his colleagues with gold. Last year, after completing the Netflix series 'Plaza,' he also presented gold gifts to the cast and staff. During an appearance on the YouTube channel 'Channel Fifteenya,' he explained his reasoning: "I've always given gifts to the staff after filming. I prepared it with my own money, but everyone thought it was a sponsorship. There's no sponsorship for gold." He added, "It's meant to be used if times get tough."

'Chief Detective 1958,' starring So Ji-sub, concluded its run with impressive viewership ratings exceeding 20%, leading to considerable discussion about the possibility of a second season.
