Multi-talented Youngins star Lebohang Lephatsoana, also known as Royal Lebo sat down with BONA to speak on his journey on the show.
Lebohang Lephatsoana, who was born and bred in The Vaal Sebokeng portrays the character of a grade 10 learner Tumelo Dibakwe on the Showmax Originals teen-drama Youngins which premiered earlier this year and the engaging storyline became topical on social media as many users felt that it was more relatable to South African high school learners.
The show captures five students who navigate adulthood together and work together to try and expose the principal, a predator.
Speaking to BONA, Lebohang described his journey on Youngins as an amazing experience, adding, “When I first entered the workspace it was a bit nerve-wracking. The intensity of the storyline build-up took me on a rollercoaster of emotions and it challenged me a lot as an actor and had me digging deeper into my actor’s toolkit but overall portraying the story of Tumelo has been an amazing journey.”
Outside of acting Lebohang is a dancer, musician and content creator and is currently working on his amapiano EP titled iBonda featuring EmDeekay, Freaky Stacks & DJ Troshka.
