[+128] I think it's understandable with that level of fame.. It's good that he recognized it

[+72] Really loved him in 'Moon Lovers'... I wish we'd get a second season~

[+65] I think it means more that he was able to recognize that in himself, fix it, and is still reflecting back on it to this day

[+39] As someone who watched him in 'Moon Lovers' while clutching my heart... he was my reason for living back then 😍 Thank you~~ glad to hear that he's so introspective in real life as well 👏👏👏

[+35] He's still so youthful even 20 years after his debut~~

[+18] His acting skills alone really saved him from being typecast as an actor

[+9] With how big his hits were with 'Time Between Dog and Wolf' and 'Iljimae,' I can totally understand how he could let the fame consume him.. ㅜ both were such great works!!!

[+6] I do remember hearing lots of rumors about his celebrity disease when he was huge back then.. It's great to hear that he recognized it and worked really hard to fix it. His image has been so great ever since. 

[+16] I still watch 'Moon Lovers' reruns ❤️

[+2] What's important is that he fixed it. And it also seems like he's gotten even more handsome lately. 

[+-] I remember when 'The King and the Clown' hit theaters, I went to see it at least three times.. 

[+-] His fame was almost syndrome-like back then, so...

[+1] It's not exclusive to celebrities. Even us regular folks get a little c*cky when we accomplish something big.
