For an actor, the time when they are not working on a project is extremely important
How do you empty out, and what do you take in
Right now is a period when I'm not working on anything — what am I taking in, what am I filling up with
 
Master Song Chang-sik
What he meant is: even when you're sad, don't grieve too much; bury it deep in your heart.
Then someday when I'm doing music, that will come out
 
So even when you're not working on a project, do you mean you're only thinking about film
That is, that all 24 hours of the day are filled only with film —
and that there's no time at all that's just empty without it — well, no, that's not the case either
 
It's just that there are habits that come with the profession.
In fact, right now I keep observing senior Sohn (the host).
So someday, if I were ever to take on the role of a host of this kind of talk show, or an anchor —
if I were to play, say, a character like senior Sohn —
the way he speaks, his posture, things like that —
I find myself watching, almost without realizing it
So all those habits and tiny details, these little examples, like the very specific things —

 

even right now I notice habits like the way he keeps clicking the ballpoint pen click-click-click
