Quotes 

“I didn’t quit musicals. When starting a new field, I am the type of person who goes all in and tries to establish myself in that field. Time passed so quickly, I will go back when I come across a good work.”

“I think you will come across good works if you do it without worrying about it. Director Kim Won-seok of ‘My Mister’ casted me after watching ‘Yong-pal’. The author said he watched ‘Yuna’s Street.’”

“”[My Ahjussi started off in controversy] was really discouraging. But we continued acting believing that viewers would be able to understand our hearts. We consoled each other saying we would tenaciously prove what we wanted to prove. The misunderstanding was resolved in the most beautiful way possible.”
