It may be hard to imagine our favorite stars to be doing a different field of work. They have inborn charisma and good looks perfectly fit for their path to stardom. This is the list of celebrities who did not dream to become an actor or actress in the beginning.
Song Joong Ki
Song Joong Ki wanted to be a speed skater or a short track speed skater when he was a child. He joined competitions and represented Daejeon at a national level. He had to give up on his dreams when he got injured in high school. When he was cast in the K-drama "Triple", he was able to make use of his skating skills again. We are just happy that he is now one of the famous actors.
Lee Bo Young
Ever since Lee Bo Young was a child, she aspired to be a news presenter. She failed to achieve the position when she became one of the 15 finalists to become one in 2002. She tried her luck with modeling again. She successfully became the exclusive model for Asiana Airlines. That is the story of her success.
Jin Ki Joo
Jin Ki Joo had dreams and aspirations that took her in different paths. She worked as an office worker for Samsung. This was a competitive work field. After working, she thought of being a reporter. After thinking deeply, she realized that her true dream is to pursue her acting career. That is the beginning of her acting journey.
Song Hye Kyo
Song Hye Kyo wanted to become a professional figure skater and trained hard for it in elementary school. She decided to quit before she enters high school. She found a new dream and enrolled in modeling contests. She won and was cast in her first drama. We are glad that she set aside being a skater to become the actress she is today.
Jun Ji Hyun
Jun Ji Hyun's childhood dream was to be a flight attendant. She loves traveling around the world, but she experienced a bad flight. She then realized that it wasn't the right path for her. She had a model friend in high school who got her into the business. That is how she became a superstar.
Lee Min Ho
Ever since Lee Min Ho was a child his passion was to become a soccer player. He worked very hard to achieve his goal. However, a bad injury in elementary school changed his mind. He was into acting in high school and majored in film at university. He now considers soccer as his favorite hobby.
