An introspective and thoughtful Mile and Apo discussing who they see reflected back at them in the mirror in this interview.
Koung: Is there any moment when you were looking at the mirror and the person looking back was not you?
both nod
Apo: There is.
Koung: What moment was that?
Mile: For me, there were two parts. The first one was when I acted. When I turned into a character, I didn't think that it's me. I'm still a human. I can't be that character 100%. But I didn't feel like myself at that moment, which is good. The second one was when I had to do some mission that society pressured us to do, until I lost myself, so there was a time when I looked into the mirror and I wanted to cry. It was the moment that I felt like there was no me. Frankly, I hate being unfaithful to myself. Between lying and not lying, we humans do lie. I sometimes do that.But being unfaithful to your goal is, I think, very torturous when we're forced to do so. I think being me as the second one, I don't want to be that person, but I've been through that from time to time.
Koung: Apo, looking at the mirror, have you ever seen another person reflecting back?
Apo: Yes, I have. When I was young, actually, a long time ago, I was told to do this, be like this and that. Being like that "was good", and because I was young, I didn't know if it's right or wrong. They were adults so I believed that it was good. I knew deep down, that it wasn't me. But I didn't know how to get rid of it. Everytime I saw myself, like P'Mile, I always wanted to cry. Nowadays, having a chance to go abroad and do things these days, and being surrounded with good people like P'Mile, I'm very happy to see myself today. The one I look in the mirror and see is me. I'll be sad if I can't be faithful to myself because I used to be one. Now I want to be as real as I can to myself in a positive way. And I want to be who I want to be, and do what I want to do. Be the most sincere to myself. This is what I always talk about in every show. Moreover, I've played a role in KinnPorsche and it talks about differences all the time; whether its love, life, everything, which is really beautiful. Just accept and be yourself, whether you're good or bad. I want to encourage people to love themselves as who they are, which I have always talked about.
