[K-MUSICAL] Musical Actor Park Eun-tae's Advice: Don't Just Look at the Spotlight

 

Musical actor Park Eun-tae (Theater+)

Nowadays, it is not easy to see interview articles by musical actor Park Eun-tae.
Somehow, Park Eun-tae feels like he has become a "hidden actor."

However, Park Eun-tae in the past was different from now.
He didn't seem to enjoy interviewing the media, but he didn't shy away.
I also had several 1:1 interviews with Park Eun-tae.
He was serious during the interview, but he was also good at joking.
I once asked him this question.

There are many people in the world who dream of becoming a musical actor with you as their role model. Are you giving advice to these people?"

To his surprise, he replied, "Yes."
Park Eun-tae said, "I'm giving a lot of advice to those people."
Park Eun-tae's first advice to musical dreamers is about a hard heart.
Aren't you just looking at the glamour of musical actors?
I also dreamed of becoming a musical actor after seeing star actors who debuted before me.

I grew my dream by listening to the OST of Cho Seung-woo and Hong Kwang-ho.
But do you guys really want to do this?
This job looks happy, but it's definitely dark and there's a hard part.
There are many people who have been on the musical stage for a long time but are not successful.
Some actors have only been doing ensembles for too long.
Can you love musicals and performances even if you become like them?
If I had only wanted success, I wouldn't have come this far.

I want to be clear.
You shouldn't just look at the intense spotlight.
I am asking young friends about 'determination'.
Can you be satisfied with singing with a fundraising box in the subway?
I became a musical actor with that determination.
My parents spent a lot of money to make me study at university.
When my friends were studying TOEIC when I was a senior in college, I gave up everything and entered the musical.
If you have the power to bite your teeth hard, you will succeed somehow.

I was shocked to hear Park Eun-tae.
Actors like Park Eun-tae also had such a desperate determination and effort.
The world is full of geniuses.
But even geniuses cannot succeed unless they try hard.
I learned this once again through Park Eun-tae.
