Song Ga Yeon recounted the story behind how she came to be interested in fighting as a career.


Visiting her hometown on Jeju Island along with the rest of the cast of 'Roommate', she nostalgically told the tale of her childhood. "I lived in Jeju until middle school, then I moved to Busan for school," she said. "Ever since I was young, my dad raised me very actively. He was a golfer, and there was a boxing ring right next to the gold course. I would go every day to watch, and it looked so cool. I wanted to go crazy in the ring, too."

It looks like she fulfilled her wish - she recently won her first bout as a professional MMA fighter!
