In the same interview, the award-winning actor shared how people would randomly walk up to him to ask if he will ever return to showbiz. According to him, he told people that he needs a full recovery.
But when he was asked at the “Fast Talk” portion of the show if he will return to showbiz, he said “No.”
Jiro was also asked if he sulked in the showbiz industry. According to him, he said he’s not sulking in the showbiz industry but he just feels like he needs some space so he can do what he wants to do.
