Recently, Lee Seung Gi sat down for an interview with the press.
During the interview, one reporter commented on Lee Seung Gi's surprisingly stable-looking mental state for the past 15 years that he had been in the entertainment industry.
Lee Seung Gi responded, "Well, I believe every celebrity goes through periods when they are really mentally unstable. They all affect them differently."

Lee Seung Gi said, "I had gone through difficulties myself not only once, but multiple times, too. I felt extremely unstable soon after my debut and before I joined '2 Day & 1 Night'. It came around me before I entered the military as well."
He continued, "The thing is, I never overcame those hardships. I just hung tough through the times when they hit me hard."

He said, "I was able to recharge myself in the military though. There, I gained confidence and energy that helped me keep going. What I did was to keep trying finding a new way out before reaching a dead end."
