Jin Goo says his immense popularity after 'Descendants of the Sun' still feels unreal

For many years, the actor has been continuously taking part in dramas and films but only recently turned into an extreme hot figure after the hit drama 'Descendants of the Sun'.

In regards to the dramatic change in his popularity, Jin Goo said, "It's true that it's something to be happy and thankful about, but it's not making me go cocky like, 'Did you see that? I'm this great.' To me, this situation still feels unreal. And I also know that this period won't last long. All I want is to be acting until I die. Memorizing lines and overnight filming will be overwhelming once I age, but I hope I can be acting as long as I can. That's why I'm trying harder to take care of my health."
