Da Ping is also a chronic liar who loves stirring up trouble, something Seah was quick to distance himself from in real life.
“Ugh, I don’t want. I stay away [from such trouble]. I think for me, as a man, all men want peace. Please, no drama,” he said.
He also insisted he’s nowhere near as good a liar as his character.
“I can act lah, but I don’t think I can lie,” he smirked.
As Brighter Days explores themes of misunderstanding, anger and the inability to let go of the past, Seah, who’s Christian, shared how his faith has shaped his approach to forgiveness.
“I feel forgive and forget is not easy to do, but I guess forgiving is a decision you have to make first. Then the forget part, of course, there are wounds internally that need time to heal,” he said.
So how does Seah heal?
He keeps himself busy and turns to exercise when he needs to clear his head.
“I guess these activities keep me distracted or calm me down because whenever I do this kind of activities, I look inwards and reflect on myself also,” he said.
“But for this current period of time, I’ve been a bit more busy with work, so work has been keeping me busy.”
Of course, it’s hard to talk about Seah’s life lately without addressing the intense interest in his marriage over the past few months.
Seah and Chang Min have yet to publicly clarify their current marital status.
When we asked if he was finally ready to address the speculation, Seah deadpanned: “What I want to say has been said previously in my statement so I’m not going to comment any further.”
So we asked him directly: Is he still married?
Seah let out a loud “huh?” before smiling and asking: “Your boss asked this ah? Hi boss, no comment.”
