Giannis Savvidakis: ‘I Went to YFSF, Did What I Did, Won, and Left’

In a recent interview on ERT’s program, Giannis Savvidakis discussed his decision to participate in the show YFSF after his success with the series “The Children of Greece” on ANT1. He explained that after achieving such brilliance with “The Children of Greece,” continuing as an actor would have complicated things further, despite receiving numerous offers. However, he chose not to overshadow his previous achievements with other projects, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a singular focus. Savvidakis shared, “I realized that respect and dignity often come from saying no more than saying yes. This allowed me to avoid being consumed or overexposed, enabling me to pursue various opportunities. For instance, my appearance on YFSF was unexpected, but I went, performed, won, and left. It was instinctive, not based on external factors. Even though I received an offer for YFSF All Star, I declined because it wasn’t the right fit for me.”
