Yoon Kyun Sang: The 1m91 second male member of "Doctors" failed college, had a spectacular transformation after losing weight

Yoon Kyun Sang is an actor who has been mentioned more since his role as Jung Yoon Do in the hot movie Doctors . He also impresses with his enormous height of 1m91, making all his co-stars look small.

Yoon Kyun Sang was born on March 31, 1987 in Jeonju, South Korea. Before becoming an actor, this 1m90 tall guy once worked as a model, about a year after he graduated from high school and... failed college.

Yoon Kyun Sang once shared about his early career like this: "In middle school and high school, I was very fat and didn't study well so I couldn't go to college. Seeing that, I decided the first thing I had to do was is to lose weight. Even though I lived in Jeonju, I always felt that Seoul had something very promising. So after successfully losing weight, I moved to Seoul. I was suggested by friends to become a model, then He received training and had the opportunity to participate in several shows." That was when Yoon Kyun Sang was only 19 years old (20 years old in Korean age).

Spending a year and a half striding on catwalks, he realized that this job, although quite interesting, was not something he wanted to stick with long-term. After being discharged from the army, following my father's advice, I majored in acting. Yoon Kyun Sang loves acting very much. He thinks that being an actor is a great thing because then he can to live someone else's life.

Yoon Kyun Sang started his acting career in 2012 with the SBS drama Faith. In 2013, he took on two small roles in the movies Forbidden Games and No Breathing. Continuing to fade in the tvN drama Gapdong (2014), Yoon Kyun Sang felt disappointed in himself many times but never gave up. He said his parents were the ones who gave him the strength to continue on the path he had chosen.

Luck smiled on the young man when director Jo Soo Won chose him for the role of Ki Jae Myung in the 2014 hit movie Pinocchio. The character Ki Jae Myung that Yoon Kyun Sang plays is a smart, honest guy who loves his family, especially his younger brother Ki Ha Myung (Lee Jong Suk).

However, a nightmare happened to their family when Ki Jae Myung's father was falsely accused by the press of causing the fire that caused his colleague to die. Frustrated and indignant, Ki Jae Myung plans to avenge his deceased father. But unlike his younger brother Ki Ha Myung, who became a reporter to reclaim his father's innocence, Ki Jae Myung chose to be a villain and kill those who blamed his family.

Yoon Kyun Sang's performance in the film received positive feedback from the audience. Viewers began to love Ki Jae Myung and enjoyed the acting of this new actor.

The role of Ki Jae Myung first brought the name Yoon Kyun Sang to public attention. He is always grateful to director Jo Soo Won for what he did for him: "The director made a big decision for me. That decision must have been very difficult. I want to say thank you to the director." for placing his trust in a rookie like me."

Just a few months after Pinocchio ended, Yoon Kyun Sang quickly reunited with the audience through SBS's romantic drama project The Time We Were Not in Love (Lee Jin Wook, Ha Ji Won). Continuing to work with director Jo Soo Won, this time his film was not as successful as the producers and fans expected.

However, that is not too big of a problem because right after that, the historical blockbuster Six Flying Dragons turned Yoon Kyun Sang into one of the most sought-after new actors at the present time.

Yoon Kyun Sang revealed that Pinocchio was the movie that helped him catch the "eye" of the Six Flying Dragons screenwriter: "After Pinocchio ended, I received an offer to participate in the movie from the writers." They said that I could portray the image of an honest, upright young man, and that would fit the image of Moo Hyul as an adult in Tree with Deep Roots.

When I met with the writer and director, they said they wanted to see in me the image of a pure Moo Hyul, how a young Moo Hyul had to face the complexities of life. That's what I need to show when taking on this character."

Six Flying Dragons closed an unexpectedly successful 2015 for this 29-year-old man. Along with the movie You Call It Passion, the actor participated in a total of 4 film projects in just one year. For Yoon Kyun Sang, this was also the first time he felt the love the public had for him.

Participating in 50 episodes of Six Flying Dragons can be considered a huge turning point in Yoon Kyun Sang's acting career. However, perhaps it takes a romantic, cheesy, or even a bit cheesy movie for this face to really attract the attention of international audiences, especially Vietnamese audiences. And Doctors is the movie that helped him do that.

Playing the role of Jung Yoon Do, a handsome and talented doctor, Yoon Kyun Sang captivated many girls with his cool and attractive appearance, not to mention his impressive height that overwhelmed the male lead. Yoon Do is said to be the one who "destroyed the image of the perfect second male in Korean films", when he was not as brave and gallant as people thought. But Jung Yoon Do is still too adorable to have a large audience wishing that he and the female lead would become a couple.

Up to Doctors, Yoon Kyun Sang has participated in a total of 5 SBS projects, most of which are successful projects. Many viewers jokingly call him a "family member" of SBS. Of course, this is just a very random coincidence.

Yoon Kyun Sang once shared in an interview while filming for Six Flying Dragons: "I will work harder and more effectively. I always hope the audience will help me point out my shortcomings." my own shortcomings, as well as encouraging me with positive compliments when I fulfill my role well."

That actor has continuously strived to pursue his acting dream. Although everything is just the beginning, although the road ahead is still very long, the audience has every right to place expectations on Yoon Kyun Sang, the promising face of Korean cinema in the near future.
