Actor Hwang In-yeob revealed that he started acting on the recommendation of Hong Seok-cheon.
On 18th, a new video titled "Hwang In-yeob, the gem unearthed from the runway by a top gay" was released on the YouTube channel "Hong Seok-cheon's Jewel Box."
On that day, Hong Seok-cheon introduced Hwang In-yeob, saying, "As a model who just turned 25, you came to me when you were contemplating whether to continue as a model or pursue something else. You have the face of an actor. You absolutely have to act. You gained confidence from that and have come this far."
In response, Hwang In-yeob acknowledged, "That's accurate," and Hong Seok-cheon said, "I'm glad it's going so well. I hope you can make a strong impression on the audience as well."
Hwang In-yeob expressed his determination, stating, "I'm not lying when I say I started acting through Seok-cheon and became an actor. As much as you expect, I will strive to be a good actor who lives up to that expectation."
Hong Seok-cheon emphasized, "Actually, there was someone I thought of the moment I first saw you. Actor Lee Joon-gi; when Joon-gi debuted, I saw that face in In-yeob. I pushed you to have confidence and go for it."
Specifically, Hwang In-yeob explained about his first meeting with Hong Seok-cheon, saying, "When I was contemplating quitting modeling, there was a moment to say hello during the last show I participated in. At that time, Lee Sang-bong and Seok-cheon were both there. I greeted them, and he said, 'I hope you act; please give me your contact.' He offered to introduce me to an acting teacher. I was curious and went, and that's how our connection was made."
