Jessica Hsuan has recently opened up on the reason why she left TVB in the past, and no, it was not your usual “broadening one’s horizon” excuse.
In a recent interview with Stephen Chan, Jessica had a simple and direct answer when asked about her decision that she made in 2012, saying, “I just felt uncomfortable with the way the whole operation was running.”
The actress explained that she had always believed that as long as you had the ability, you would naturally be appreciated and be given opportunities. However, the real world isn’t always like that.
She emphasised that she is a person who clearly separates public and private matters, but that it became harder to adapt when the work environment forced her to please certain people.
“It turns out that you might have to please people you don’t want to please. I asked myself, can I do it? No,” she said. “I left TVB because there were many changes internally at that time. Many people left, and some new people came in. The previous group of people were very compatible, but when they became incompatible, many problems arose.”
Jessica said that she is the kind of person who relies heavily on her feelings when doing things, and would leave if she feels unhappy.
