In a candid conversation on Shin Dong-yeob's YouTube show "Jjan Bro," actor Song Seungheon took a trip down memory lane, revealing the hurdles he faced at the onset of his acting career.
Reminiscing about his debut project, "Three Guys and Three Girls," Song Seungheon shared the challenges he encountered and the pivotal moment that almost altered the trajectory of his career.
Recalling the moment he received the script for "Three Guys and Three Girls," Song Seungheon admitted feeling unprepared for the task at hand. "I wasn't ready to act at all," he confessed.
With only a week or two to prepare, the pressure was palpable. "Imagine how awkward it would have been to act on site for me," he added, reflecting on his initial trepidation.
Despite diligent efforts to memorize lines and improve his acting skills, Song Seungheon found himself struggling, especially in comparison to his seasoned co-stars.
"On the other hand, all the other leads, including you, Dong-yeob, were purely amazing at your work," he remarked. His difficulties on set were compounded by the professionalism of his colleagues, leading to multiple retakes and a sense of inadequacy.
