Actor Song Hyun-seo shared her story of returning to the path of acting after working as a manager.

On the 27th, YouTube channel 'Bin Paper' released a video titled "Former Manager of Yoo In-na Works as an Executive Driver for a CEO Worth Hundreds of Billions of Won While Chasing Her Dream as a 30-Something-Year-Old Actor."

That day, Song Hyun-seo introduced herself as "an actor who has been acting since 2015 and is now in her 10th year." She revealed that after completing her second year of university, she submitted a leave-of-absence form and moved to Seoul to fully pursue her dream of becoming an actor.

Song Hyun-seo recalled, "I asked my mother for two years to try this path. I told her I wouldn't accept any financial help, but it wasn't easy." She added, "About two years later, my mother said, 'If you keep spending money like this, even I will be too burdened.' At that moment, I felt very immature and cried for a long time. A week later, I returned to my hometown."

At that time, she had gone through a period where she couldn't film a single work for eight months and felt her limits. Song Hyun-seo shared, "I was attending school again in Gwangju, but there was no vitality at all. I hadn't adapted yet and only drank alcohol. I lived with immense frustration."

Later, while considering employment, she experienced corporate life through an internship at Korea Rural Community Corporation but realized, "This isn't working for me." After pondering how to return to Seoul, she thought of becoming a celebrity manager and eventually joined YG Entertainment after applying to several entertainment agencies.

Song Hyun-seo said, "I started by managing senior actor Cha Seung-won, then took on Yoo In-na and actress Son Na-eun as my clients." She added, "I worked with In-na for about four years, so she remains the most memorable."

Regarding her connection with Yoo In-na, she shared, "We often went to her house and ate together. She liked hanging out with managers and staff. She treated me really well, just like a sister would."

However, while working as a manager, she did not inform the company that she had previously been an actor. Song Hyun-seo explained, "Doing it secretly didn't feel confident at all, and I worried that if they found out later, they might feel deeply betrayed. If I were to act again, I thought I should quit being a manager and do it properly."

Ultimately, she chose to return to the path of acting. Song Hyun-seo said, "After quitting my job, I wanted to boldly declare my intention to become an actor and start with confidence. I felt I needed to cut off all other options to focus on this work."

She further emphasized, "I have never once regretted quitting," revealing her unwavering determination toward acting.
