Actress Lee Yoo Mi, who played an active part in the Netflix series "Squid Game" and "All of Us Are Dead", revealed the number of auditions beyond imagination.

On the 28th of last month, an interview video of actress Lee Yoo Mi was released on the ESQUIRE Korea YouTube Channel.

The number of auditions she joined before Lee Yoo Mi hit the jackpot with the Netflix series "Squid Game" last year was especially noticeable in the video.

When the production team asked the total number of auditions, including the movie "Hostage", Lee Yoo Mi said she could not imagine how many times she had auditioned.

Lee Yoo Mi, who recalled her past saying that she lived really hard, surprised everyone by calmly answering that she seemed to have auditioned about 400-500 times.

Actress Lee Yoo Mi, who debuted in her 14th year this year, made her name known to the public around the world by appearing in Netflix's most popular series "Squid Game" last year after various works.

She has established herself as a "mainstream actor" after succeeding in acting as a villain in the recently released Netflix series "All of Us Are Dead".

It seems that she rose to stardom with one work, but behind the scenes, she was able to succeed because she had the persistence and passion to challenge 500 auditions. 

Many fans cheered and applauded Lee Yoo Mi, saying, "I hope she will be more successful in the future."

On the other hand, in the video, Lee Yoo Mi is looking back at her old works, correcting mistakes by looking at her information posted on Namoo Wiki.

Super Junior’s Kyuhyun recently opened up about his experience in the group, revealing why he tends to stay quiet and his life living in a dorm for 18 years.

On May 6th, a new video from the web show Salon Drip 2 featuring Kyuhyun as a guest was uploaded to the YouTube channel TEO Theo.

During the show, host Jang Do Yeon asked Kyuhyun if he finds it easier to talk when others do most of the talking.

Kyuhyun responded, "First of all, I don't talk much within Super Junior. I just don’t feel like speaking. The members talk so much that I don’t want to add anything."

He continued, "I don't really have a strong sense of self in the group. I’m the youngest, and there are so many opinions from the others. There were times when a song I liked was rejected, so I stopped sharing my opinions."

As Super Junior approaches their 20th anniversary, Kyuhyun admitted, "I just go along with what the members want," making the audience laugh with his laid-back attitude.

When asked who speaks up the most in the group, Kyuhyun answered, "Eunhyuk, Leeteuk, Ryeowook, Heechul, Siwon, Yesung, and Donghae. I just follow their lead."

Kyuhyun is also known for his long dorm life as an idol. He proudly stated, "I think I’m number one in the world among idols when it comes to living in a dorm," revealing that he’s spent 18 years living there.

Reflecting on his early dorm life, Kyuhyun recalled, "At first, there was no space in the dorm. I used to sleep in a tent I got as a gift. There was no room because the members and even the managers all lived together."

When Jang Do Yeon asked if he ever wanted his own space, Kyuhyun replied, "Now that I live alone, I’m so happy. I can do whatever I want. It feels like I’m a successful adult."

He added, "I didn’t know living alone could be this happy, but sometimes it’s a little scary. Like when I hear noises at home," which made everyone laugh.
