Then, "I took a break from work for about three years because that was the only thing I could do," he said. "The company said it would look for the work because I kept talking about it." But I kept waiting and got frustrated. It was repeated. Then there was an explosion. I waited because I heard that there was a drama that had a high possibility of appearing in it, but there was an article that said someone was cast. The lid flew off from there and I couldn't stand it," he said, expressing his difficult feelings.

During the hiatus, Kim Ji-hoon "Three years felt too long for me. All the money I've earned has run out. The biggest problem was that there was no hope when and what would happen. I felt a lot back then"and "I was sick all the time. For the first time in my life, I had a headache when I touched my head. I even felt that there was a cancer in my head. At that time, I felt that the greatest amount of stress in my health was..." he confessed.




He "What I decided at that time was that the work would not come in anyway, so let's go on a trip, read books, and have a constructive time in the meantime. But it's been about six or seven months, so even if I read a book, the letters don't come in, and even if I watch a movie, I can't input what it's about. There was a time when I couldn't do anything like that," he said, expressing his feelings during the slump.
