With him wrapping up his drama 'High Society', he recently held an interview with several media outlets, but probably due to all the schedules he's been handling, his interview answers were rather short, curt, or just thoughtless according to the reporters who went to interview him. Two media outlets, The Fact and Financial News, especially pointed out the matter directly by writing articles about his attitude, rather than trying to piece together an interview article with his short answers.
The media outlets pointed out that the word 'tired' was written all over the idol-turned-actor's face when they went to meet him. However, despite understanding how tired he must have been, how little effort he put into their short interview sessions disappointed and frustrated the reporters.
The Fact says they had no choice but to cut the interview short at 25 minutes, while Financial News says their interview ended in 15 minutes. The reporters say they worked hard to prepare questions that weren't so obvious, but were met with short, unimaginative answers.
When one reporter asked him if he watches his fellow member Siwan's dramas, Hyungsik simply stated, "I tell myself I should but I forget because I don't have time". When asked what his thoughts are on the compliments he receives from his sunbaes, he responded "I'm thankful". When asked to compare his teamwork between his different co-stars, he replied "People are all different". When the reporters decided to wrap up the interview with the question if he had anything to say about 'High Society' having reached an end, Hyungsik said, "I want to go to the bathroom".
According to The Fact, a Star Empire employee later apologized for Hyungsik's lackluster attitude, telling them, "Hyungsik has a lot of concerns lately. He is having a hard time because he has a lot of schedules."
The reporters point out that although he may be tired, he's not the only one there who's tired. The agency employee who had to bow his head and apologize on behalf of the idol is also tired, the reporter who had to prepare for the interview and drive over to meet with the idol is also tired. They ask the question whether Hyungsik being tired can be an excuse for everything when everyone else there also has his own issues and things that tire them out.
