On February 10, Park was on the YouTube channel Chungju City, where he talked about how hard it is to balance creative work with being an executive. During the show, he answered questions about the challenges of running a publishing company. Park said the job was challenging when he was honest. SPOTV News says he said, "It's difficult."

Park thought about the responsibility of telling employees what to do as he talked about the stress of being a manager. "As the CEO of a company, when I see someone who has to make orders, I always think about things like if they seem a little lacking in common sense. If I'm not sure if I told them not to do something, I don't say anything," as reported by SPOTV News.

Then the talk turned to how he deals with being angry at work. The host wanted to know if he ever gets angry enough to show it. Park made a joke, and this loosened the mood of the conversation. He said, "No, I don't. I'm afraid it'll be posted online,"

People who know how public figures are watched in the digital age, where workplace conflicts can quickly become viral content, understood what Park was saying. Coverage on Naver showed how his comments show that more and more celebrities who run businesses while being famous are aware of this issue.

Later, the movie business came up for discussion, during which Park gave a cautious assessment instead of heavy criticism. When asked about the problems that Korean movies are having right now, he chose his words carefully. Park said,"As someone in the industry, I don't want to complain about Korean films being bad. But don't you think Korean films are getting a bit of a bad rap?" This is what Naver said about the broadcast.

The host compared the situation to a big business and said that high expectations can lead to harsher judgments. He said, "It feels like Hyundai. It feeds the people's economy and is cost-effective, but expectations are high," This comparison revealed the complexity of the state of affairs for Korean cinema at home.

Meanwhile, Park Jung-min's performance in "Chungju City" proved that he is a grounded individual, whether as an artist or as a successful businessman.
