Jang Keun Suk revealed his thoughts on the downs of celebrity life during an interview with Harper’s Bazaar Magazine. When asked about the negative criticisms that come his way, the actor expressed, “Some people may be scarred deep down in their hearts, but in my case those words keep me focused and build me up.”

He continued, “Not everyone can like me. I’m neither the nation’s actor nor the nation’s little brother. The thing that can heal the pain on in the inside is none other than harsher criticism.” On the topic of celebrity life, he explained honestly,

“Being a celebrity isn’t that exciting. We are humans like everyone else just working as celebrities. Why do we always have to be attractive or pretty? That is not exciting.” Along with the interview, Jang Keun Suk’s photo shoot taken in Paris was revealed. With his casual fall attire, the actor displayed his own unique style in the photo
