Actor Nam Joo Hyuk revealed that he was once scared about him getting tall too quickly.
On September 24, Nam Joo Hyuk and actress Jung Yu-mi joined an online press conference for their new fantasy series 'The School Nurse Files'.
The story of 'The School Nurse Files' centers around the school nurse named 'Ahn Eun-young' (Jung Yu-mi) and Chinese characters' teacher 'Hong In-pyo' (Nam Joo Hyuk).
As the two stars talked about their school days, Nam Joo Hyuk said, "When I was in high school, I used to visit the nurse's office all the time."
When asked why, Nam Joo Hyuk explained, "It was to get my height measured. I was getting tall incredibly fast."
The actor continued, "I grew like 20 centimeters a year, and was afraid that I was going to become too tall."
He added, "I honestly was so scared. Measuring my height at the nurse's office every now and then helped me ease my mind a little."
Nam Joo Hyuk is 187cm (6.1ft), and his tall figure got him to make debut a runway model in 2013; he is known to be one of the successful model-turned-actors.
