"I even had extreme thoughts." Musical actor Ok Joo-hyun recalled a difficult time due to debt.
Singer Ok Joo-hyun's episode was aired on Channel A 'Best Friend Talk Documentary - Table for Four' aired on the 8th.
On this day, Ok Joo-hyun mentioned the controversy over casting the musical 'Elizabeth'. When Lee Ji-hye, the same agency as Ok Joo-hyun, was double cast as the main character when casting 'Elizabeth' in 2022, some raised controversy over the casting of network, saying that Ok Joo-hyun's breath was at work.
Ok Joo-hyun "I didn't contact Ji-Hye, Ji-Hye didn't contact me for each other." Because it's not okay. I know it's not okay, so I told him how I felt at the time.
He told Wisdom that he could do well someday if he learned not only 'Elizabeth' but also various works well. It wasn't aimed at a particular piece of work that `It opens up, so let's run for it.'"At that time, I learned a lot of things from Jihye that I didn't have." We just shared each other" he said.
Ok Joo-hyun "I learned it enough and grew up so well. I was unanimously selected as the heroine in the audition. I thought, 'It's okay, it's going to be okay, it's going to be okay,' but things got too big"I recalled the time.
Lee Ji-hye said, "My sister is a strong person in the station, and I have a personal relationship with her, and I have taken lessons from her." "For this reason, I have become the main character who does not have to be on the chopping block." Since then, Lee Ji-hye has been selected as the main character, but she only received worried messages, not congratulations on her passing. Lee Ji-hye said, "We didn't talk about it and spent a long time together, but after the performance, we hugged each other and cried our eyes out." he said.
At that time, Ok Joo-hyun recalled the business failure she experienced at the age of 27, saying, "I had a long time to pay back money when I started a musical and until my mid-30s."
Ok Joo-hyun recalls the early days of the musical, which was struggling with debt, saying, "It was a tunnel that was too long. I even had an extreme idea. This time was like hell," he said, expressing his feelings at the time when he was having a hard time.
Why do you think that when you can't even die? Isn't that such an unnecessary idea. Then, when I was able to breathe a little later, I thought, 'Tough trials can also be a good material for living harder.'" he said.
Ok Joo-hyun seems to be right when he says "Good things are not good until the end, and bad things are not bad until the end."I'm even grateful for the ordeal if I think that even if I had a hard time now, would I have been able to grow without this ordeal?"
And he said, "'At the end of the day, I'll just do what I have to do without being shaken up.'I thought ' the most"But how can it not shake?" My heart is so crushed. There are also tears of blood. I was crying, and I thought, "I'm getting this."The reality is difficult, but it drew attention when I recalled the time when I was trying to find hope.
