• Rapper Swings Breaks Silence on Nearly Joining 'Squid Game 2'—Why He’s Now in Acting School?

    Rapper Swings is stepping into the world of acting!

    On January 11, Swings surprised fans by sharing a video of himself practicing a scene from the critically acclaimed film Burning (2018, directed by Lee Chang Dong) at an acting academy. Swings delivered an intense performance while analyzing the scene with passion and depth.

    The day before, on January 10, Swings had already hinted at this new chapter. He shared, “I’ve been taking acting classes for a month now, and I’m doing this every day. It’s so much fun! I’ll share clips occasionally, so please look forward to them.”

    What caught even more attention was when Swings addressed rumors about Squid Game 2. He reposted an article titled “Swings Enrolls in Acting School After Missing Out on Squid Game 2 Casting” and clarified, “I’m really grateful, but actually, I started acting lessons a month before that. So it’s not as urgent as it sounds.”

    This comes after Squid Game 2 director Hwang Dong Hyuk recently revealed that T.O.P (Choi Seung Hyun) was cast as the character Thanos. He also admitted, “I considered friends like Swings for the role but couldn’t fully trust their acting ability.”

    While netizens speculated that Swings’ acting lessons might have been fueled by this missed opportunity, the rapper is clearly moving forward with determination.

    Fans are already cheering him on, with comments like, “Swings is proving there’s nothing he can’t do,” “His commitment to learning is inspiring,” “Let’s aim for Hollywood next!” and “We’re rooting for your success!”

    Could we be seeing Swings take on major acting roles soon? Only time will tell, but his journey is already turning heads!
