But the other dramas that I did are also important to me. In every drama series, I do different things," he said. He thanked his fans for helping him reach his goals.
"I don't forget that it's because of the support of my fans that I achieved success. I’m very honored and I'm very thankful for the support of my fans. I achieved fame and success because of their love and support," he said.
