Lee Seung Gi confesses he once thought of leaving the industry

Posted by CWK0 pt Wednesday, November 30, 2011

Multi-talented singer Lee Seung Gi recently confessed that he once thought of quitting his career as a celebrity. On the November 27th broadcast of Mnet's 'MIC', Lee Seung Gi appeared as a guest, where he talked about the unexpected mental hardships he went through during his earlier years as a singer. Commenting on his second album, 'Crazy For U' (2006), Lee Seung Gi confessed, "Compared to my other albums, this album has the most despair and sadness in it. I was extremely insecure and was asking myself, 'Can I do well?' I think those feelings were in the album." He continued, "The period between the first and second album release was the time when I was concerned about Lee Seung Gi as a person the most. I asked myself, 'Can I not be a celebrity? Should I quit? Maybe it's not for me?', and once thought of running away." Lastly, he added, "There's something called a 'sophomore jinx', where the second album doesn't do so well if the first one did. But, I didn't even have the energy to think about it. Even during my second album, I was scolded for not singing well." Source + Photo: My Daily via Naver
