"17-year-old model debut, unaffiliated for 5 years… Lee Soo-hyuk said he and GD were 'friends who always fought'"
Actor and model Lee Soo-hyuk candidly spoke about everything from the story of his model debut to his long-standing friendship with G-Dragon (Kwon Ji-yong).
On the 22nd, the YouTube channel 'Gongbuwang Jjin Genius' released a video titled 'Lee Soo-hyuk and Hong Jin Kyung's model force that dominated Cheongdam-dong.' In the video, when asked what led him to debut as a model, Lee Soo-hyuk began, "I originally intended to join an actor agency, but I received an idol offer, so I actually couldn't join the agency."
He continued, "I liked clothes so much that I started modeling," and recalled, "I debuted at 17, but I spent the next five years without an agency. During that time I called companies myself to get work." He added, to laughter, "I asked actor Kim Young-kwang how much he was paid, then tried to ask for a little more than that."
When Hong Jin Kyung asked, "Were you friends with G-Dragon before that?" Lee Soo-hyuk replied with a laugh, "We fought all the time." He said, "We bickered like, 'Why are you an idol?' 'What movie are you filming?'" and added, "At that time, I had no idea it would turn out like it does now."
Hong Jin Kyung said, "Neither of them could have imagined they would become this big," expressing admiration, and the video naturally portrayed the narrative of two people who started as model classmates and friends and became top figures in their respective fields.
Viewers who watched the video reacted enthusiastically, saying, "It really feels like a youth movie," "Enduring five years unaffiliated is cooler," and "The story that he was GD's friend who always fought is crazy." <
