With only days left before we welcome another year, almost everyone is already preparing their new year's resolutions.

It has never been different to your favorite Korean celebrities, for they also set some goals that will make them be the better versions of themselves every year. It may be doing a new hobby or a kind of change that will help them grow as an individual.

One of the most prominent actors in the Korean entertainment today is the "Alive" movie star Yoo Ah In. He was known for his versatility in acting. The actor has shared his upcoming resolution and how ready he is to welcome 2021 with a new goal!

On Dec. 24, Yoo Ah In posted a series of photos on his Instagram account and wrote:

"Before. It was all for the show. It tickled. Then it started tasting good. And then I felt like I could breathe out better. I couldn't live without it. For about 17 years. Stinks. But I'll probably miss it, huh? That stink of cigarette in my hair at night. I'm quitting. Cough cough. Bye cigarettes. In 2020 (Yoo Ah In most likely meant to write '2021'), I'm gonna quit smoking and work out more diligently. I'm going to be healthy. I'm going to save myself through health. The first grand decision born out of a life filled with cigarette smoke!"

After his shocking revelation, it already made a buzz in the entire social media community. The fans were confused about his post's content, saying that he will quit smoking in 2020, which is only days left before welcoming 2021. Fans were confused if he meant to stop smoking by the end of 2020 or 2021.

Because of his surprise confession, the media has produced different news articles regarding the actor's post. Later on, Yoo Ah In then made his statement clear with another Instagram post.

He said:

"Earlier this morning, I threw out some bait for you all by declaring that I would quit smoking in the remaining 8 days of 2020. However, seeing everyone's unstable response to this confession and the excessive number of news articles that talked about my statement, I feel bad. I have been motivated to extend my decision to go smoke-free in 2021 and for life. Thank you so much to all of you who were so very mistaken to believe that I meant 2021 when I said 2020, and I will continue to remain in hiding while becoming a healthier person. I hope all of you guys can successfully quit smoking too!"

The actor said because of some news articles that he has read due to his recent post, he made it clear to the public that he will go smoke-free in 2021. The actor promised that he will do his best to stay healthy in the upcoming years. He also wished that people who smoke would also try their best to quit the vice and live a healthier life.

Meanwhile, after the success of his movie "Alive" along with actress Park Shin Hye, Yoo Ah In is expected to release another exciting Netflix series, "Hell again." The upcoming series is about a society where humans will face supernatural phenomena. It will depict the human-made hell that was created to overcome the reality of people's wrongdoings.

Yoo Ah In is said to play the character of Jung Jin Soo, the head of an emerging religion called "Saejinrihoe." He will talk about the phenomenon when death angels from Hell come on earth and state that it is a revelation from God. The 34-year-old actor is once again expected to show an outstanding performance in this new thrilling series that is set to air in 2021.
