Actor Lee Sang Yoon opened up about his unexpected journey from being a physics major at Seoul National University to becoming an actor, sharing some hilarious and insightful moments along the way.

On the January 20 broadcast of KBS Cool FM's Park Myung Soo's Radio Show, Lee Sang Yoon joined veteran actor Park Geun Hyung to promote their play Death of a Salesman.

During the show, Lee Sang Yoon recalled a surprising comment from Park Geun Hyung, who called his impressive academic background "a flaw." Park explained, "A degree from Seoul National University doesn’t mean much here. If you’re going to do theater, it’s better to major in theater."

Laughing off the remark, Lee Sang Yoon shared, "If I could be reborn, I think I’d want to become a doctor." This prompted a playful response from Park Myung Soo, who said, "With your looks, if you became a doctor, you’d end up in plastic surgery. You’d dominate the field—it would be chaos!"

When asked why he made the leap into acting, Lee Sang Yoon revealed, "I got the chance to try acting by coincidence. I was curious, and people around me suggested it would help me overcome my shyness."

He added, "At first, it was just an experience to develop myself, but I started enjoying it. Even though I used to struggle with being in front of others, I found this strange sense of joy that kept me going. That feeling has stayed with me until now."

Lee Sang Yoon continues to capture hearts with his talent and charm, proving that even a "flaw" like a Seoul National University degree can't stand in the way of pursuing his dreams. Fans are now even more curious to see his performance in Death of a Salesman.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
