Hyun Bin Reveals The Deal He Made With His Dad To Start Acting

A man of his words.

Recently, actor Hyun Bin appeared as a guest on Jung Jae Hyung’s YouTube channel, garnering significant attention online.

In particular, his story on how he was able to start acting went viral.

He shared that he made a deal with his father.

His father, who was initially against him acting, made a deal: if he got into Joongang University’s Department of Theater and Film, he would allow him to start acting and would no longer be against it.

But if he didn’t make it, then he couldn’t speak of acting ever again.

Ultimately, he made it into the department, and his father never spoke against his acting again!

Many were impressed by the wholesome father-son relationship they had.

아버지: 연기하지마
현빈: 할래요
아버지: 그럼중대연영과에가
현빈: 넵 그대신합격하면더이상반대하지마요
아버지: ㅇㅋ

>>합격

중대 가라고 진짜 간 아들이나, 아들이 약속 지켰으니
당신도 더 이상 반대하지 않으신 아버지나….

To the son who actually got into the department, and the father who didn’t oppose him anymore because he kept his promise…such a wholesome father-son duo.
