Speaking of Ukrainian movie stars, the comedian Zelenskiy is the most famous, his masterpiece is the Ukrainian national comedy "Servant of the People", playing the Ukrainian president, yes, just like the job he is now engaged in. So what is the ability of this comedian to jump from a small actor to a head of state?
Zelenskiy was born in 1978 to a wealthy family in Krivorog, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, to a Jewish family, but in fact the Jewish people liked to read in addition to usury (see Sherlock in The Merchant of Venice). Zelenskiy's family was a bookish family, his father was a professor at the Krivorug School of Economics, and his mother was an engineer.
But Zelenskiy, who came from a family of high intellectuals, liked acting, and after graduating from the Kyiv University of Economics Law School, he was tapped into his comedic talent, so under the operation of KVN, a well-known Ukrainian entertainment program team, Zelenskiy began to engage in the entertainment media industry.
In 1997, he co-founded an entertainment group with members of KVN called "95 Quarters", and Zelenskiy was also the captain, so he still has a little talent for leadership. The group is still quite popular, and it can also perform in some CIS countries.
As Zelenskiy's performance became more and more recognized by everyone, the comedian gradually became a good hand in the Ukrainian film and television hosting industry, in addition to singing and dancing, he also began to engage in television content production, film production and entertainment program touring. But it wasn't until 2015's "Servant of the People" aired that he truly became Ukraine's top actor.
Zelenskiy fully explained what is called "life is like a drama, all rely on acting skills", relying on his outstanding performance in the Ukrainian national TV series "Servant of the People", Zelenskiy eventually became the president of Ukraine, but in the TV series "Servant of the People" he played Vasha as a history teacher rather than an actor.
