Actor An Bo-hyun revealed the circumstances that led him to pursue acting and shared his special connection with Kim Woo-bin.

On the 2nd, a video titled "Your Story Could Be Made into a Drama" was released on the YouTube channel 'Yojung Jaehyung'. On this day, An Bo-hyun and Jung Eun-chae, starring in SBS's new drama "Chaebol Detective 2," appeared as guests.

That day, An Bo-hyun said, "I originally planned to become a military officer. I had no intention of going to college. But my cousins encouraged me, saying, 'Your height is great, so why not try modeling?'"

He continued, "At 19, I participated in a program that allowed me to experience modeling, where I met Kim Woo-bin. Woo-bin was one year younger than me and had also come as an aspiring model. It was incredibly fun and like entering a new world. With the thought of 'Why not give it a try?', I started, and here I am now."

An Bo-hyun also revealed, "While watching boxing movies like 'Champion' and 'Fists of Destiny,' I felt a desire to try acting myself."

Regarding his connection with Kim Woo-bin, he said, "Woo-bin told me, 'Hyung, I'm going up to Seoul to start acting.' When he was leaving for the military, I went to see him off. Hearing that, I said, 'I'll go to Seoul after I get discharged.'"

He added, "At that time, my dialect was very strong. So, on the subway, I kept listening to people's conversations to learn standard Korean. I mostly just listened while commuting."
