Park So Dam shared in one episode of JTBC’s Camping Vibes about feeling pressured about her acting career.
JTBC’s Camping Vibes is a new variety show that cast Ahn Young Mi, Park Na Rae, MAMAMOO’s Solar, Apink’s Son Naeun, and actress Park So Dam go on trips to places in South Korea with scenery that resembles famous tourist places of foreign countries.
In this episode, the members set out camping along with their guest Song Seung Heon. After dinner and some fun games, they sat around and have some honest conversations. Park Na Rae began to talk and said that they only met yesterday, but it seems like they got close so quickly.
Solar said she did not know they would become close quickly. She saw Ahn Young Mi as much softer than she realized because she seems so tough on the outside. On the other hand, Ahn Young Mi said that she wanted to look tough. She wanted other people to recognize her that way because she hates looking weak but then realized to show others who she is.
Solar also added that she thought from ‘Three Meals A Day’ of Park So Dam was the type of person who is confident enough to approach other people, but it turns out that she has more worries.
Park So Dam explained that she was the type of person who gets positive energy from meeting other people. As an actress, she has to do the job that she loves. She was grateful, but one day, she suddenly felt the responsibility and heavy pressure. She can focus on her character while acting but, at some point, worried about other people focusing attention on her.
She also continued saying that she could act and be herself on a camping show. When the other members said that they should be comfortable with each other around, she still has difficulty putting the weight down. She wanted to be and enjoy herself, but it seems it is difficult for her.
Song Seung Heon tried to comfort Park So Dam, but instead of dry tissue to wipe her tears, he unnoticeable gave a wet tissue, making everyone and Park So Dam laugh. She thanked him for wrapping things up nicely.
Moreover, Park Na Rae also gave comforting words to Park So Dam that it is okay not to be good at something sometimes. That doing well is not something they need to do on their show.
