The SAG-AFTRA strike, alongside the Writer's Guild of America's strike, sheds light on the challenges faced by actors in the entertainment industry.

"We rely on residuals to keep us afloat during the lean years.
"Health care is off and on every year for us. So it's very difficult to make that threshold every year if you're not consistently working all the time," Sung said.
