My original dream was to become a singer-songwriter, so I sent a video of myself playing the piano and singing to all the big agencies.

It's not the moment yet for me to enjoy my time as an actor, and as the time goes by, I feel that I need to push myself harder to pay back for all the good fortune that I have received.

When I'm not in front of the camera, I'm just like any other normal person. I'm a student. I eat when I'm stressed.

Before, I could meet and greet all my fans one by one, but now, it's hard to remember all of their names. And my actions can sometimes cause misunderstandings. If I bow to one side, I've heard people from the other side ask why I didn't bow there.

I can't take the subway anymore. I think I can still take the bus, though. It's a double-edged sword because I'm grateful that people recognize and support me, but there are definite downsides to that.

Most superhero characters we see these days are from foreign countries. I would like to play a superhero that shows off Korean power.
