Im Siwan of K-pop group ZE:A is one of the many idols who is making a mark in movies and television series. The rising actor starred in the recently concluded popular tvN's cable drama, "Misaeng," where he showed his impressive acting skills.
Since the end of the series, Siwan has reportedly been receiving numerous project offers while he is on break after "Misaeng."
The idol-actor is currently on a break and his agency is reportedly looking over the offers to choose Siwan's next project, Enews reported. An affiliate from his agency said, "We've received about 50 scenarios and are currently looking them over."
"Many of the projects put Im Si Wan as the lead actor," added the affiliate.
According to Enews, the idol showed his exceptional acting skills in the movie "The Attorney." He took a supporting role in the movie but he gained positive feedback on his performance.
Meanwhile, he won the Best New Actor award in the recently concluded "2014 MBC Drama Awards," Daily Kpop News reports. This was for his dramatic performance in the series "Triangle." However, it was not his win that made headlines but the smart and humble speech he delivered as he accepted his award.
During his acceptance speech, he said, "I have no idea that I will receive an award today. Actually I had a lot of expectations since the last time I was nominated for the Best Child Actor award. I feel good receiving this award unexpectedly. As always, I feel better and better with the more awards I have, but I will not put any special meaning on the award I received tonight. I will become Im Siwan who always studies and approach acting with much passion."
He went on saying, "I will personally contact all the people I need to thank. As I don't have the phone numbers of the fans, I will take this opportunity to thank them."
