Quotes

“I lost a lot of weight and I wanted to show everyone everything I had. The image of ‘milky boy’ held be back. I wanted to be manly and mature. Hearing the words, ‘good job’ made it all worth it.”

“I don’t have plans to get married yet so I think about the people around me and how I should take care of them. My parents are getting old and they have to think about their retirement. I need to think about myself too but then again, doesn’t everyone my age think like that?”

“I want to work. It’s tiring but it makes me happy. Waiting for the next drama or movie is a form of ‘resting’ to me. I am going to take a week’s break and look through the next thing. Whisper tired me out mentally so I want to try something physically exhausting next.”

“A good person makes a good actor. I want to be a good mentor to those who dream of acting. I want my words to be precious to someone else.”
