Kim Mu-yeol Considered Quitting Acting, Agency CEO Reveals

The CEO of actor Kim Mu-yeol's agency, Yeo Jun-young of Prain Global (Prain TPC), expressed heartfelt congratulations to the actor on his rise to global stardom. Yeo recalled the challenging period in Kim Mu-yeol's career, highlighting the actor's perseverance through difficult times.

Yeo revealed he had kept a particular photograph for 15 years, waiting for the right moment to share it. He admitted to holding back from posting it earlier, concerned that its significance might be downplayed. For Yeo, this image represents a historical moment, deeply connecting him to Kim Mu-yeol's journey.

“

I've really kept this capture for 15 years, thinking I'd post it someday. I held back because I worried people might dismiss it as historically insignificant.

The CEO's reflections suggest that Kim Mu-yeol had contemplated retiring from acting at one point. The phrase "이제 다 글렀네" (which roughly translates to "It's all ruined now" or "It's over now") implies a moment of deep despair or a feeling of finality regarding his acting career before his eventual success.

No matter what anyone says, to me, it's historical.
