On October 14, renowned actor Park Seo Joon held his exclusive press conference ahead of the highly-anticipated fan meeting as 'IAM Worldwide's brand ambassador in Manila, Philippines.

First, Seo Joon was thankful for the support he received from the moment he arrived at the airport. What he missed the most in the country is, of course, being able to meet his fans face-to-face.

When asked what kind of acting project he is actively looking for, the actor replied, "Since there are a lot of different genres that exist, I can't say specifically that I want to try a specific genre. For me, what I love most is acting, so at the moment, I haven't thought about trying other endeavors yet."

Spending years in the industry, Seo Joon said that he would love to say to his 18-year-old self to just do his best and that everything will eventually work out. He also talked about how during those years he had a very hard time because he thought he really had a very vague future. 

allkpop had the opportunity to ask a question to the actor, asking what steps he takes to fully understand the character. Seo Joon said, "If we were to talk about this, I think we need a lot of time," adding, "Let's say, for example, I received the role of a 35-year-old doctor. In the scenario itself, I only get to check that he's already a doctor, but for me, as an actor, it's my responsibility to try to think about what caused this or how he became a doctor and what he went through. I will try my best to take all the information I can get from that. However, when I see some missing spots, as an actor, I think it's my responsibility to fill them up myself."

Seo Joon on working with the brand: "At first, I was very surprised that a foreign brand would offer me this. I'm happy that through this, I was able to meet my fans. During the shoot, I was able to do it very comfortably."

Hours later, Seo Joon finally graced the stage at the Araneta Coliseum, eliciting loud cheers from his fans. During the fan meeting, the actor shared some fun facts about himself, revealing he loves casual styles. As for the season, his favorite is winter. 

When asked what kind of music style he loves to listen to during a long drive, Seo Joon responded, "I love BTS." The actor also revealed that he works out 3-4 times a week. "I don't have much confidence in my body. That's why I continuously work out."
