Is the black-haired kid really quitting acting forever because of that? I mean, I do think he misinterpreted Peter Pan's character, since Peter Pan is supposed to be a childlish, selfish character that doesn't really understand consequences or guilt, but seems a bit strange that he quits over one incident like that.

    But i think he might have been getting a lot of comments like you stood out a lot and you shouldn't when he wants to stand out. So if he became a idol he can stand out even if he is in a group or solo.

    Doesn't really make sense to me, since you need to stand out from the others if you want make it as a famous actor. There are times when you need to match the scene and not steal the spotlight from other actors, but in the example shown, they were literally all just reading the same line, not acting out a scene. Just seems weird to me. If they wanted to get that issue across better, they should have been doing a scene where he's a minor character trying stealing attention from the lead.

    Standing out in a wrong way is not good. Good way is when they agree to you

    No that's not the issue. The issue is he doesn't want to hide who he is to fit in. Him standing out is a natural consequence because he's perceived as "odd." Like he said, he was serious about work but he was scolded because he was seen as attention-seeking when he was just being himself. Although he didn't like not fitting in, he also didn't want to suppress his true self so left with no choice, he quit acting. That's why he's trying to walk on a new path.

    How is just interpreting the character wrong "being who he is"? The acting teacher was literally like "stop trying to stand out so much" even though he sincerely seemed to be putting a lot of thought and effort into interpreting the character. A good teacher would have just gently corrected him that his interpretation was wrong, instead of accusing him of being attention seeking. It's just disappointing to me that he's giving up something he's passionate about because of this.

    Let's see, I think as per previous life he might more passionate and talented ( which is proven) about being an idol

    It's who he is because he was NOT trying to stand out. He interpreted the character that way with no hidden intention. He didn't go for the "odd" angle because he thought, "oh if I do it like this I'll stand out more." No. He was 100% serious and thought he was right and that's how the character could be. But because it's "odd" people think he did it on purpose to seek attention. Even though he did nothing unusual from himself, but because he's odd, he got criticised. That was the issue. He didn't want to be scolded for being himself (like thinking in a weird way).

    He literally says, "I don't want to hide who I am to fit it."

    That's why he tried going the idol path, where being "odd" doesn't bring criticism (as much). There's more freedom of creative expression in that area.

    I said he was sincerely interpreting the character, but he was doing it incorrectly. I never said he had some hidden intention or that he wasn't giving it his all. But he's in an acting class to learn how to act, so obviously he is going to get feedback from his teacher if he's doing it wrong. If he's so thin-skinned that he can't accept getting some advice from his acting teacher, I'm surprised he makes it as an idol.

    Fair enough I guess, if he decided he doesn't want to learn how to act anymore because he would rather be just himself rather than act out a character the way it's written. Certainly not suited to acting, in that case. But I still don't think the scene portrayed that at all.

    Oh I think there's a misunderstanding. What I meant is that his acting class/teachers thought he had a hidden intention (to stand out) not that you said it. Even if they did not think so, that was how it felt to him. Incorrect is incorrect but it's being "odd" and pressured to change that got to him. We can also see that when he talked to his mom and she said something about how this is society is.


    Also, I don't think there's a right or wrong in acting since it's such a subjective art form. One right interpretation could be wrong the next. For example, having different actresses play the same character or having different directors film the same story would lead to different results. This is also why there are conflicts between actors, writers, and/or directors sometimes. Not everyone's visions align all the time. So yeah I understand why he'd quit and be an idol instead.

    (Although being an idol doesn't guarantee total creative freedom, who can still force him how to sing and dance when he's already on stage? Lol)
