Park Joo-hyun shared her past struggles after passing the audition for 'Human Addiction'.

On the afternoon of the 19th, actress Park Joo-hyun appeared as a guest on the MBC variety show 'Knowing Bros' (hereafter 'KB').

During the broadcast, when asked if she was cast while in school, Park Joo-hyun replied, “I was able to participate in external activities starting from my third year. At that time, I told my professor that I might need to take a leave of absence after passing the audition, but no one knew about Netflix back then. The professor asked, ‘What company is that?’, ‘What channel is it?’ thinking it was an internet broadcast,” mentioning the challenges she faced even after passing the audition.

When asked if her family was supportive, Park Joo-hyun said, “They were supportive, but since it was my first character and it was very strong and intense, my mother was worried.” When Yang Se-hyung asked, “Oh, so you’re not originally like that?” Park Joo-hyun replied, “I am originally like that,” causing everyone to burst into laughter.

'Knowing Bros' airs every Saturday at 11:10 PM on MBC.
