The behind-the-scenes story of So Ji-sub, who gave up being a water polo player to debut in the entertainment industry

So Ji-sub appeared on Fairy Table.

I learned for the first time about his days as an athlete and the process of how he debuted in the entertainment industry.

He was skilled enough to even make the standing army.

It really broke my heart to hear that you had to give up sports and choose to become an entertainer because of your family's financial situation.

I heard that he packed his bags and left the dormitory because he was in a situation where he had no choice but to choose money.

I think I can somewhat understand how much worry you must have had back then.

I applied for a modeling job posting by chance because I was a fan of Kim Sung-jae, and ended up getting accepted.

It was also fascinating that it became a turning point in my life.

Because of the decision made back then that made So Ji-sub who he is today

I also wonder if that is why there is such a wonderful actor today.
