Byun Wooseok reveals his trauma from his 'nugu' days, "I had a low confidence due to the hate comments I received"

Byun Wooseok revealed that it took three years for 'Lovely Runner' to go into production. He said, "I play the lead role in this drama, but since I wasn't very well-known, the role was offered to other actors first. That's why it took three years." He continued, "I'm grateful that I was offered the role of Sunjae. As soon as I read the script, I thought to myself, 'I absolutely want to do this.' I had a strong feeling that I should give it a try."

Byun Wooseok's success didn't come overnight. He reflected on the difficult times during his 'nugu' days. He said, "There were times when I got cut off during script readings. It was traumatic. I received a lot of hate and there were times when I had low confidence." He added, "Due to my modeling background, I really love being filmed. However, as I became an actor and constantly getting scolded, I became anxious in front of cameras. I even questioned myself if this job was really meant for me."


Byun Wooseok also said, "People around me didn't say bad things, but I did hear some hurtful comments. Some told me, 'I don't think you'll make it in 4-5 years.' Ironically, things started to work out for me around 4-5 years later." He added, "When I heard those comments, I was more determined to overcome them. I didn't want to be discouraged by those words."

He continued, "Instead of staying idle, I tried to overcome my weaknesses and trauma by experiencing the field. I took on any role, no matter how small, and I think that's how I overcame it."

In an interview with the production team, Byun Wooseok also talked about the difficult times. He confessed, "There was a time when I went to a salon to get my hair done for a character, and then got a call saying, 'Sorry, we can't work together this time.'"

He added, "At that time, a group chat for the actors was created, and I said there, 'I don't think I can do this anymore.' It felt like a punch. My pride was honestly hurt, and I wondered if I would ever make it. I cried to let it out," he said. "But I think those moments made me want to do better and work harder."

The reason Byun Wooseok can easily wake up at 7:30 in the morning even if he goes to bed at 4 a.m.


BWS: I wake up precisely at around 7:30 AM on the days 'Lovely Runner' air on TV, no matter if I went to bed at 3 or 4 AM. My eyes just open, even without an alarm. It's because the viewer ratings are usually released around 8AM. 

As soon as I wake up, I check those ratings and search for "Lovely Runner" to see how many news articles have been published. The number of articles indicates how much buzz there is. Then I search for "Byun Wooseok" to check the news and read the comments.

"Jung Joonyoung is preparing for immigration" His Recent Whereabouts Revealed for the First Time 64 Days After Being Released from Prison

 
by Journalist Kim Dohyung

During a radio interview, Journalist Kang Kyoungyoon talked about the reasons behind her participation in Burning Sun documentary that was recently released and how the late Goo Hara played a significant role in uncovering the clues behind the scandal. Additionally, recent whereabouts of Seungri and Jung Joonyoung also caught attention. 

Journalist Kang mentioned, "The documentary production began about three years ago. I received many offers for appearances, publications, and even lectures. However, I did not accept them. It was traumatic for me. However, the reason behind my participation in the documentary was the persuasion of the production team." Kang recalled the words of the production team, stating, "K-pop is really popular in Europe. If K-pop truly wants to expand globally, we need to address past events like these that have occurred in the K-pop industry." She added, "I strongly empathized with the idea that we need to address such scandal for further development (of K-pop)"

Journalist Kang also shared her thoughts on Goo Hara's contribution, which gained the most attention in the documentary. She said, "Goo Hara played a crucial role in exposing the relationship between Seungri, Jung Joonyoung, and the police. I was very concerned about how her family would perceive this. Many people misunderstand me and think that I reported this for some political reasons. That's why I had to share the process behind my report. To do so, Goo Hara's name had to be mentioned."

Regarding the recent whereabouts of Seungri and Jung Joonyoung, both have been released from prison. Seungri is reportedly focusing on business expansion rather than resuming his career as a singer, while Jung Joonyoung is said to be considering immigration. When asked, Journalist Kang replied, "I heard that he is preparing to immigrate abroad." Jung Joonyoung's whereabouts since his release on March 19 have not been widely known. This is the first time his recent whereabouts were revealed in the 64 days after he was released from prison.

-Wait, even if he gets a visa, is there a country that accepts immigrants with a criminal record??!

-Yeah, just leave and never come back to Korea.

-Is there any country that accepts scumbags like him? 

-Yeah and don't tell people that you're Korean wherever you go.

-Didn't Seungri say he'd do business in Cambodia or the Philippines? Will he follow him?

-Is getting a permanent residency that easy...?

-Go there and get shot or something.

-There may not be a country that would accept such sexual offenders, but if he can go, it's better if he disappears as soon as possible.

-In the country where I applied for permanent residency, they asked if I had ever been punished for a crime... Depending on the country of origin, there are some that ask for a criminal record document.

-Goodbye.

-Would they accept you with a criminal record? Anyway, it's probably better to stay in Korea, even though you're not wanted here.

-Is it possible to immigrate if you have a criminal record????

-Ah, please just leave Korea and take all the Burning Sun criminals with you.

-He's going abroad just to disgrace Korea again...

-If you're leaving, take your friends with you.

-Wow, it's even more surprising that it's been 64 days since his release... The sentence he received was really short.

-He lived abroad for a long time since he was young. He lived in many countries, so maybe he'll go there.

-I recommend him to immigrate to North Korea.

-How about North Korea, Junyoung?

-Even if you immigrate, people who recognize you will recognize you.

-You can immigrate as you pleaseㅋㅋㅋ With that kind of past, you won't even get a visa, let alone an entry.

-Which country accepts criminals??? Please tell me, so I won't even travel there.
