Oh Young so, whose real name is O Se Kang, was born in 1944 in Gyeonggi, grew up in Paju. The artist experienced a difficult childhood when his father died early, having to drop out of school to earn a living. After being discharged from the army, unable to find a job, a friend introduced him to the troupe. When he stepped on stage, he saw a new world. Young so is happy to see the reaction of the audience, who are immersed in his language and expressions.

Initially, the artist was assigned only small roles. He also had to do more work such as putting up posters and cleaning up after the play ended. The meager salary is not enough to cover the cost of food, housing ... causing him to resort to his mother's help. "My younger days were similar to Ki Hoon (Lee Jung Jae), the main character in Squid Game," he said.

The opportunity came to him when many artists left the stage because of poverty. In 1971, he was cast as Stanley in Marlon Brando's play A Streetcar Named Desire. In 1975, he made a splash with Goethe's Faust. He later joined the National Theater and became a big name in the Korean theater industry.

According to DongA, his natural incarnation and tall, skinny physique make many people think he is a monk instead of an actor. "Because I've learned so much about Buddhist ideology, maybe I look more and more like a monk," he said.

The moment he stood between the boundary of life and death, he thought his life had to stop here. When his health recovered, he realized that he no longer had material desires, no fame. He stopped driving, changed many habits. "I wondered what money meant. Because I was alive again, I started thinking about living worthily," he said. The artist plans to return to his hometown of Haeju, where his grandfather used to live, after retiring.

A beautiful world, a beautiful society and a beautiful human being. One day, I'll be away from the stage. I hope the impression I leave on the public is beautiful."
