Actor Wi Ha-jun confessed that he couldn't enjoy the popularity of 'Squid Game' at all.

On the 27th, KBS2's 'Gajung Gajung Lee Min-jung' featured guests Yang Dong-geun, Park Gyu-young, and Wi Ha-jun.

On this day, Wi Ha-jun revealed the behind-the-scenes of his casting in 'Squid Game'. He said, "I went to the production company for a greeting. As far as I know, only the role of Junho was not decided, but after hearing my tone while I was speaking, I was offered an audition." He continued, "I thought it was a light reading, but everyone was there, including the director and the production company representative. However, since I have a habit of memorizing the script when I audition, that helped me. They looked at that positively."

Wi Ha-jun shared about the explosive popularity of 'Squid Game', saying, "I couldn't enjoy it at all back then. Instead, I felt a lot of stress." He added, "I hate being disappointed too much, so I don't have any expectations for anything. Even a small expectation can lead to a big disappointment."

Meanwhile, 'Gajung Gajung Lee Min-jung' airs every Friday at 10 PM.
