Korean entertainer Yu Jae Seok consoled a lost young man who has been struggling with finding the balance between reality and his dreams.
On October 31 episode of tvN's variety show 'YOU QUIZ ON THE BLOCK', Yu Jae Seok and Cho Sae-ho met with citizens and invited them over to their quiz show.
On that day, Yu Jae Seok and Cho Sae-ho ran into Young-wook, a guy who spent many years trying to make his debut as a singer.
Unfortunately, when Young-wook started to nurture his dream, a huge obstacle named reality was standing in his way.
Even though he did his best to overcome hopelessness and despair, and strove to juggle two things at once (work and practice)―but those feelings were so overwhelming that it got to him from time to time.
After hearing his story, Yu Jae Seok said while complimenting his brave behavior, "They say that we should do what we want to do, but it is extremely difficult to leave everything behind and move to the big city (Seoul), especially when the circumstances are not ideal."
Yu Jae Seok, who also had to spend many years as a nobody could not help but relate to his story deeply.
He continued, "Along the way, you could give up. But I don't want you to think of it as a failure or a dead end. You just started dreaming. Don't try to do everything at once. Instead, tackle one thing at a time and achieve your dreams."
Also, Yu Jae Seok added a word of encouragement at the end that he hopes to see him on TV one day and cheered him up with a positive energy.
The public was deeply moved by his thoughtful gesture and heart-warming advice that he gave based on his own experience.
