A team of short-track athletes was sent from North Korea to participate in the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.
Footage of their previous appearance on the news showed one of the athletes looking coy in the background behind another member, and the audience was quick to point him out.
According to Koreaboo, his name is Kim Byul Sung.
Here’s a side-by-side comparison:
According to Allkpop, some people commented, “I clicked on the post thinking how good-looking can he be, and wow, he’s really good-looking,” “If you decide to defect from North Korea and come to South Korea, I’ll buy you food,” “We need to unify Korea,” and “He needs to defect to South Korea ASAP.”
Meanwhile, others apparently likened the athlete on the left to Henry Lau, a Candian singer-songwriter based in South Korea and China.
Some other comments were “Hurry and bring him over,” “Wow,” “F*cking handsome,” and “Wow he looks like Hyun Bin and also Lee Dong Wook. He’s really handsome.”
