Actor Seo In-guk is getting praised by viewers for his realistic acting in the drama “High School King.”

In the 12th episode, aired on Tuesday, Seo sat in the pouring rain and cried his eyes out after realizing that he would not be able to continue his career as a hockey player due to a shoulder injury.

As Seo was able to skillfully show his character’s grief, the scene captured many viewers’ attention since his character, Lee Min-suk, normally has a bright and playful personality.

According to local reports, Seo sat in the pouring water for two hours to focus on his acting, wowing the staff members.
