Jang Gwang-ja Jang Young 'More than 100 failed auditions. I thought I was going to die of panic disorder.'
Jang Gwang's son, Jang Young, confessed to having a severe panic disorder.

In TV Chosun 'Dad and Me', which aired on the 4th, Jang Gwang's son Jang Young confessed the reason for panic disorder and his sadness as an unknown actor.

On this day, Jang Gwang, Jang Young, and his father appeared to take a walk for their dogs, saying, `It used to be a walk for dogs. We didn't talk much to each other, but the inconvenience of taking a walk has disappeared a lot now", showing a changed appearance.

After the walk, the two visited a restaurant to eat health food, and unlike before, they continued to eat by talking to each other.

While eating, Jang-gwang said, "You've visited me when you were working part-time. I told you I had a panic disorder then. In fact, neither my mother nor I know the seriousness of panic disorder. So even though I was talking about it that day, the reaction was not great."

In an interview with the production team, Zhang Guang "I didn't know the seriousness of panic disorder. You said it because you were having a hard time, but if you don't empathize, you get hurt. I looked up the Internet and watched it even if I asked people. But I thought it was in a dangerous state."

Jang-kwang told his son "It's very difficult, and it's very difficult. What was the situation for then?"

Jang Young said "I was cast as a cast member of a weekend drama, but it was canceled a month later, and then I played the third role as a supporting actor, but my role was taken away. It was so hard to hold on because I was dragged down with my mood at its peak"I recalled that time.

To make matters worse, Jang Young said he was eliminated from all auditions more than a hundred times later, completely destroying his self-esteem.

Jang Young was criticized at the company at the time. At that time, he was taken to solitary confinement by the manager of the agency and took X bath. He said, 'You set me an audition like that, but I fall every time I watch it. Then, at some point, my self-esteem was smashed. At that time, my mind collapsed. Am I regressing. I felt sorry for my family, too. 'Go to the audition'But there's nothing for a year or two."

Jang Young also said, `One day, I couldn't breathe and fell down on the road. I thought I was going to die like this," he said, surprising everyone.

Jang-gwang went to that state. It must have been really hard. I thought I went to a situation I didn't know. If it was me in the past, it would be a panic disorder. You can't beat that?I would have said '. But now, I feel sorry because I understand the situation. I thought I didn't understand deeply.'

Jang-kwang asked his son "Did I make it harder then?" and Jang-young declined to say.

Zhang Guang said, `If I had known about panic disorder, I would have cheered for you more" and Jang Young thought "What's going to happen is to make it obvious that I'm doing it?" he said.

Jang Kwang said "When you know that in your family, trust builds. If you don't talk, you won't know. It's past, but I think I had a very dangerous time. I thought you had a hard time, too. In the future, if that happens, never get sick alone."
