He said, "I thought of 'You Who Came From the Stars' as my first and last production. It was really hard. I originally had no thoughts about acting. Director Jang Tae Yoo and writer Park Ji Eun sent me a love call, so I was grateful. The director told me everything from the camera moving to the broadcasting system. I didn't realize this while I was in the production, but after its completion, I wondered if that was why people acted. It was difficult to the point that I thought this production would be my first and last."
The model-actor continued that he didn't think he could pursue acting as a career. He shared, "I thought of it as work that did not suit me. I didn't like being in a nervous state for such a long time. The happy life I was thinking of had ordinary things similar to other people like having leisure time and not putting my health in danger, so 'You Who Came From the Stars' was very difficult."
Ahn Jae Hyun also discussed what made him change his mind. "However, I felt [something different] after finishing 'You're Surrounded'. While watching the last episode during the farewell party, everyone applauded together, so it was somewhat touching. I was washing my hands in the bathroom where I said to myself in the mirror, 'So that's why they do this.' Even during the preview for 'Fashion King', I realized this was why people filmed movies and invited others to watch together. I was nervous, but I also enjoyed it."
Thankfully for fans, 'You Who Came From the Stars' was not his last production, and he has proven himself a talented rookie actor. The movie 'Fashion King' premieres on the 6th.
