[4] He was also active in Dongsung-dong since the second semester of his senior year, including guest directing play Bison, a performance for the drama class at Deoksung Women's University  [ ko ], as a part time job. [4] Gradually, he naturally gave up his dream of becoming a film director, and debuted in 1993 with the play Simbasame as Sol joined Hanyang Theater Company, a theater company with alumni of the Department of Theater and Film at Hanyang University as majority of its members. [4]

When Sol was in his 4th year of college, Sol received a full scholarship with straight A credits and went up to the department at once. Before graduating from Hanyang University, he received invitations from his advisor to study master at Hanyang University graduate school or Korea National University of Arts, but he refused. [4] Sol continued his theatre activities in Hanyang Theater Company, however Sol didn’t want to be under the shadow of his school. After graduating, Sol left the company. [5]

Since 1988, Sol began taking taking on minor roles in television. In the play, he was a star-actor who played 14 roles, but in television dramas, he was just an aspiring actor. [7] In the mid 1990s, Sol began taking on minor roles in feature films. In 1996, Sol made his screen debut in his first film A Petal , playing the role of Woo-ri, a college student who is chasing the whereabouts of the female lead girl (Lee Jung-hyun) at the recommendation of director Shim Kwang-jin, a college classmate who was taking directing lessons from director Jang Seon-woo.

[11]

In addition, director Lee Chang-dong revealed the reason for casting Seol Kyung-gu as follows.

Unlike other actors, I rather liked that he hesitated and said that he had no confidence. He looked weak in charisma with an ordinary mask, but his face was different every time I saw him, and that seemed to enable him to express various colors as well as good and evil, so he was cast. [12]

In film Peppermint Candy, Sol played Kim Yeong-ho, a suicidal man devastated by the two-decades of historical change his country undergoes. [13] After shooting for six months from mid-May to the end of September, the film debuted on October 14 of that year as the opening film at the 4th Busan International Film Festival.
