Quotes

“When I first started my acting career, I only knew what my acting teacher taught me. When a director gave me an impromptu direction, I didn’t know what he wanted me to do and I wanted to escape from the place.”

“I faced some limitations as an actor and started taking lessons again, where I now study my character first and then discuss it with my teacher. I feel responsible as many other people’s lives hang on the success of a drama in which I appear.”

“In essence, I think having various experiences and dialogues with different people helps me improve my acting more than taking lessons.”

“I worked like a machine [as an idol]: singing, riding in a van, eating, riding again and appearing in shows and sleeping. Since we were part of a big boy group, there was an army-like hierarchy and I had no personal time. At the time when a senior asked me what color or kind of car I love, I fumbled for words, because I didn’t give a thought on such things, living the busy idol schedule.”

“As an actor, I have more personal time to focus on myself and ponder what’s best for me.”
