Sharing one important lesson he has learned from being part of show business for 15 years now, Enchong said: “It’s best not to mind what’s being said about you on social media, as well as the toxicity of it. If you’re good, producers and network bosses will definitely hire you.”He added: “Just focus on your craft and your attitude, which is actually a big part of your success. You have a responsibility to keep improving yourself as an artist.
Enchong admitted to have experienced a lot of rejections in the past. “It’s good that I have a mentality of an athlete,” said the former member of the national swimming team. “If you tell an artist that he is incapable of winning, he will work even harder to prove you wrong.” The actor then recalled a “humbling” experience during his first ever appearance in the Sunday variety show “ASAP.” “I honestly felt like I was taken for granted. I was given the ugliest outfit and the most inconspicuous spot on stage. This got me so frustrated that I actually cried. My brother knew this. He was a witness,” said Enchong, referring to his older brother, actor AJ Dee, who has since retired from show biz.
“These days, I feel uncomfortable when people call me ‘Sir Enchong.’ But also I feel that, since I was able to do my job, I’ve earned that respect. Earning respect takes a lot of effort, time and humility,” he said. “This is also why I enjoy talking to people. This makes me feel good, especially when they reciprocate. I do this because I learn a lot from them.”
