As we wait for Park Sihoo-ssi’s next work, let us go down memory lane…
The road to stardom is no easy road. And even when you are a star, life is tough, not a bed of roses as what you might think.
Park Sihoo-ssi had a tough start. It took him all of ten long years from the time he debut his acting career in 1997 on the theatrical stage to the time he finally got a leading role in “Family Honor” in 2008. That was a long road, over ten years of being a relatively unheard and unknown actor. But even though the road was tough, our Oppa Park Sihoo-ssi was also a tough novice, with a compelling inspiration.
In an news article interview for Ten Asia, Park Sihoo-ssi was asked what made him carry on even when he was making only small progress in the ten years.
His response was that he was really a babe in the wood when he started, believing it when someone told him he would do well on TV. In a matter of a few months, he decided to be an actor and headed to Seoul, thinking that everything will right itself when he was there. Well, the road was tough and the journey was ten years long!
He thought he was really brave, fearless and full of confidence.
He first started out in the theatrical circle in Seoul putting up posters and distributing flyers for their productions. If he were lucky, he would get the chance to take to the stage as an extra from time to time.
But he was not deterred and had this positive attitude that he was building up his experience. And he kept going even though the parts could be so negligible. His inspiration was that his break would come and one day, he would suddenly get the lead role because of his look. And his look was his bane and fortune. Sometimes he got a small break like a commercial due to his look and sometimes his look lost him the part.
His self confidence and perseverance was what pushed him on. While some people shoot to stardom instantly, he had to build his acting career little by little, one small step at a time. His turning point was when he got parts in “Let’s Get Married” and “Which Star Are You From”, though he had a bit of a rut before taking a role in “How to meet a perfect neighbor”. After that, he made his jump as male lead in “Family Honor”, but not before playing his last second fiddle in “Iljimae”.
A tough novice on a tough road to stardom. And he did it through sheer perseverance and self confidence and never giving up on his ambition. Since then he has been playing leading roles, the latest being the Korean version of “Patrick Jane” in the Korean remake of “The Mentalist” which is currently being filmed.
No longer a novice, what will be his next move? We hope to hear more!
小鲜肉艰难的路途
等待施厚君的下一部作品的当时,让我们走下记忆的道路…
明星之路并非易事。即使你已经是明星了,人生也会是艰难,不是你想象中的玫瑰花床。
施厚君开始明星之路是非常艰难的。从他1997年踏入演艺舞台到2008年终于在“家门的荣光”中担任男主,是一条漫长的道路,超过十年之久的无名存在。但是,即使路途艰难,坚强的小鲜肉偶吧Oppa还是充满了灵感。
在“亚洲十大Ten Asia”的新闻采访中,施厚君被问到,虽然进展微小,是什么让他继续前进的。
他的回答是他刚开始时确实太天真。有人告诉他,以他的相貌,他可以上电视,天真的他相信了。在短短的几个月内,他就决定要成为一名演员,就前往首尔,以为在那里,一切都会好起来。这条路走得可艰难了,长达十来年!
他认为自己真的很勇敢,无所畏惧并且充满自信。
他是在首尔的戏剧舞台开始的,大多数时间为他们的作品制作海报和分发传单。偶尔幸运时,有机会登上舞台,扮演小角色。
但是他并没有因此而感到震慑,并以积极的态度看待,认为自己在累计经验。虽然是微不足道的角色,他也坚持不懈。他的灵感来自以他的外表,有一天他会突然有机会突破,扮演主角。他的外表是他的祸根也是财富。有时候,由于他的外表,有机会拍一些广告,但有时,他的外表让他失去了角色。
他的自信和毅力使他继续前进。虽然有些人可以立即成为明星,但他必须逐步建立自己的演艺事业。他的转折点是当他参演了小次角人物在“我们结婚吧”和“你来自哪颗星星”,之后有一段空白时间,然后参与“遇上完美邻居的方法”和“一枝梅”后,就有机会跳升为“家门的荣光”的男主角。
坚强的小鲜肉,迈向明星之路是多么艰难。但从未放弃过自己的志愿,通过自己的毅力和自信心终于做到了。从那以后,他一直扮演男主,最近是在韩国翻拍的“超感神探” (“超感警探”)中饰演“帕特里克·简”的韩国版,现在正在进行拍摄中。
不再是新手了,他的下一步将会是什么?希望不久可以听到更多!
