Actor Ko Du-sim recalled the time she left Jeju and traveled to Seoul.

On the 29th, Ko Du-sim appeared as a guest on the tvN STORY variety program 'What to Do with What's Left', which was specially prepared for the 1st anniversary Jeju Island special.

On that day, when asked about the reason she came to Seoul, Ko Du-sim said, "I rode in the bottom of the third-class cabin on a ship going from Jeju Island to Mokpo, and I saw prisoners with shaved heads being escorted."

She continued, "On one side were prisoners tied up, and on the other side were ordinary passengers. Even in the midst of that, they were staring at me and causing a commotion. It was so disgusting that I vomited."

After arriving in Seoul, she revealed that she first took a job to make a living.

Ko Du-sim said, "When I came to Seoul, I didn't know what to do. I couldn't even ask for allowance, so I thought I had to earn money. My older brother saw a newspaper and told me to go check if they were hiring a female typist, so I joined as an accountant. I worked there for about two years."

Then, she began to recall her dream of becoming an actor again.

She said, "As time went on, I thought, 'Why did I come to Seoul? I came to become an actor, and I can't keep doing this forever.' At that time, MBC was recruiting its fifth public recruitment class. I applied and got in."

She added, "I took the final interview, and the president asked a lot of questions. I thought to myself, 'I think I'll make it,' and indeed I did. I ranked first out of 42 people," leaving everyone surprised.
