There is no denying that Song Joong-ki is one of the most popular South Korean actors of this generation. The 32-year-old star is popularly known for portraying the role of Gu Yong-ha in the 2010 historical drama titled Sungkyunkwan Scandal. His fan base grew farther after he starred in Korean romantic hit drama Descendants of the Sun.
Recently, Joong-ki sat down with Marie Claire Korea and discussed the controversy hounding his latest movie The Battleship Island. The fiancé of Song Hye-kyo divulged to the publication that he was badly hurt by the criticisms. The actor even shared that he, himself, is not satisfied with his own performance in the film.
“I did feel distressed at the film’s box-office failure and criticism of the film. But I thought at that time, I need to reflect more objectively. I have regrets that if I had done better, I could have conveyed the message of the film to more of the audience.”
