It seems the pictorial and the accompanying interview have given the actor's fans a peek behind the scenes, having been accustomed to seeing him on hit shows like "I Live Alone" and "Would You Marry Me."

In the interview, Seo talked about his own personal tradition that serves as his ground in the morning. To introduce this, he talked about how the seemingly simple action of visiting bakery stalls contributed much to his daily activity.

"I attempt 'bread-keting' daily at 8 AM," he said, using a playful term that combines bread and ticketing. He added, "It's a period of stability where I do not feel the need to prove anything to others. This allows me to temporarily pause concerns regarding my next steps as a professional and reach a state of happiness,"as per AllKpop.

The conversation also highlighted the actor's close bond with his dog, Monde, who was present during the photoshoot. Seo described Monde as more than a pet, framing the dog as a personal anchor. Before quoting him, the discussion introduced this dynamic as central to his ability to decompress after work.

"Monde is a 'switch' that helps me transition from being an actor to my personal self," he said. He elaborated, "The sight of Monde greeting me at the entrance of my home helps release the physical and mental tension accumulated during my work."

Seo's reflections offered insight into the balance he seeks between his public career and private life, emphasizing small rituals and personal connections that sustain him. According to AllKpop, he framed both bread and his dog as sources of comfort, highlighting their importance in maintaining mental and emotional well-being.

Fans of Seo Bum June have responded positively to the interview, noting that it provides a more relatable and human perspective on the actor beyond his television appearances.

The full interview and additional details are available in the February issue of Luxury, where Seo discusses both his personal philosophies and upcoming activities for 2026.

In separate news, SBS's drama "Would You Marry Me" is facing public backlash over a controversial scene in its October 25 episode. The episode depicted a family medicine doctor being secretly filmed while performing CPR in a public park.

Another character, Baek Sang-hyun, warned that illegal filming carries up to seven years in prison and a fine of 50 million won. Despite the warning, the character forgave the perpetrator, saying it was a first offense.

Insight reported that many viewers criticized the drama for trivializing a serious crime. One viewer commented, "Forgiving a criminal without adhering to the proper legal process sends the wrong message."

Others said the show should have focused on reporting the incident to authorities instead of forgiving the offender. In response to the criticism, SBS reportedly removed all related clips from its official platforms.

Insight also noted that the network has not issued a formal statement regarding the controversy. The issue has sparked ongoing debate about how TV dramas portray social and legal responsibility.
