Here is Siwan's first interview after his discharge from his military duty. This interview is special because you get to see the thought process that lead to Siwan's successful streak of series and films.
After being discharged from his military service, Im Siwan was interviewed by Cosmopolitan Korea.
(English translation on Drama Milk.)
Here's the link to the original video.

They captioned the video edit...
"If you watch this video, you can't help but fall in love with Im Si-wan, right?"
True that!
Here is the video with English subtitles (with the help of Google Translate). I have tried to maintain the aesthetics of the words and tried not to mess up the beauty of this video.
Soon after the military service Siwan was seen in Strangers from Hell. After this interview, Siwan worked on - Boston 1947, Emergency Declaration, Run On, and Tracer - for which he received a lot of love and appreciation. His upcoming work is - I Just Dropped My Smartphone & I Don't Want To Do Anything.
It is easy to see someone succeed and look back to say it was meant to be. This interview is special because he was looking forward - looking toward the unknown. But he was clear about what he wanted - and has provenly achieved in 2 short years. He has come a long way from being a K-pop idol. And he has a very long way to go.
Siwan was also featured in The Star magazine (June 2019 issue) around the same time. Here are some pictures / articles and picture reel from the same.
