I learned that one's mentality can influence how they react to physical obstacles.

Unlike office workers who improve their profession with repeated daily practice, entertainers don't have any work manual or daily workload. But, I personally set my daily workload, trying hard to invest a set amount of time to improve myself, like other professionals.
I think what I can do is to focus more on what I'm good at and see if I can improve on these positive qualities so that I can continue on the path I'm on now.
Lee Seung-gi before the army and Lee Seung-gi after the army are totally different. Firstly, I've matured a lot. I used to feel pressured by a lot of things before fulfilling my military duties. Now, I'm proud that I've become more confident.
Being in the special forces has really broken a lot of the limitations I thought I had. Thoughts like 'We've done this much, so we should take a break now' were ones that I had to ignore and overcome in my training. They taught me how to keep going, no matter how difficult a situation can get.
Most of my acting has been for fantasy-based shows like 'A Korean Odyssey.' But for 'Vagabond,' it is totally different.
I think efforts sometimes don't get rewarded.
Men and women are different, and they can never read each other's mind.
PSY is a legend. I am just proud that a world star has risen from Korea and that a longtime friend was met with such astounding success.
I am always ready for anything.
Many guys seem to think that his thoughts and feelings are always right and always the best option. I think I am the same kind of guy.
When acting, I can wear another person's clothes and act out the attractiveness of a particular character, which is very interesting for me. Singing is something I love as well.
In 'Vagabond,' I'm acting like a gangster; it's very tough. I have to use my body for action scenes, and there is nothing gentlemanly about this character at all.
I hope K-dramas can make inroads into more Asian countries.
