Quotes 

“Although I’m grateful for my fans’ love, I sometimes get really nervous when I feel like it’s more than I deserve. [However,] Ho Joon [in So I Married an Anti-Fan] is smooth, and he’s a natural at reacting calmly in front of the public. I want to learn from the way he communicates with his fans.”

“I typically like nighttime. I’m not that interested in sleep, so I usually enjoy making the most of the nighttime. When I find myself getting sentimental in the wee hours of the morning, I embrace it.”

“As an actor, every production I’ve been in was truly valuable to me and taught me a lot,” he shared.

“I’d like to be a part of a truly great production that will help me receive more recognition [for my acting skills] from both my fans and the general public. Before I turn 30, I’d like the last acting project of my twenties to become the work that defines my career.”
