When the Korean drama flower boy trend started the early days it was Jung Woo Sung in the mid-90s and in the twenty years since that moniker has been attached to plenty of It Boys. I always felt one of the most apropos use was to describe K-actor Song Joong Ki and not in a pejorative all looks no talent way. He is all talent and looks, just those looks are indeed very pretty boy and he was born with it so might as well be so good at acting that any character is believable even if he will always look fresh and handsome. I mean, we all bought him as a South Korean army colonel with kickass fighting skills, right? He’s coming back in early 2019 with the sageuk drama Asadal and it looks like he’s starting off with a soulful new pictorial for Esquire Korea September 2018 edition.

I thought he was won bin brother? Last picture his look like song the kyo. Not bad. good luck with him for his comming drama,hope not disappointed.
Typo sorry. But he still look young boys.
Or a cross between a young boy and a girl.
I already missing him so much on my screen. I already can't wait to watch asadal. Hope it will be good. Since this is. Won Suk PD nim, I'm abit too hopeful, since his last three drama is pretty solid in terms of script and direction. It means he has an eye for at least a solid script.
He does look like won bin. I never imagined he looks so good with curly hair. Love the cover shot.
Nope, not me. I wasn't convinced that he was a "South Korean Army Colonel with kick-ass fighting skill."
I agree.Was he charming even though they gave him the most cringiest and cheesiest lines to say?Yes.Was he believable as a "South Korean Army Colonel with kick-ass fighting skill?.Nope.Jin Goo's character was more believable as a lieutenant or whatever his rank was.
To me, SJK's character was just a cool regular korean drama lead dressed in military clothes.He occasionally held a gun and had maybe one fighting scene but he was mostly flirting or chasing after Doctor Kang Mo Yeon.
I'm so agree with you. I wasnt conviced him in Dots. And wont convinced in this one. He just gonna like cosplaying in military outfit, even if his acting is good.
seriously Dots has the chessiest dialogues I ever watch in my kdrama history. Those dialogues and cringy scenes made me stopped watching it. I'm feeling too old for that cr** and I'm still in my early 30s lol
+1
But unlike @RubyRed, I cringed over the cheesy lines but I don't blame him for that cringey-ness, it was after all KES' drama.
His last work that I appreciated was The Werewolf Boy, the follow up works were not impressive but he got talent, just that the roles not really bringing out his skill.
And I am probably in the minority, I find him ageing quite a lot after MS.
Curly hair suits him.He looks good.
He's probably growing the hair out for the sageuk hair extensions, still looks good though.
I wonder if that's his natural hair texture or did he get a perm?
I think it's a perm. His childhood pictures are all with straight hair. And I agree with you that he is growing his hair to prepare for the sageuk hairstyle. Hope the drama will be good.
I love SJK but let's be real here he wasn't believable as a colonel. Who knows he ever will be. Maybe when he is in his 40s.
But I'm looking forward to his new drama. I hope it's a departure from DotS mess.
He looks like kang maru here
OMO. He looks so good. Agree, he reminds me of Won Bin. Plus, close up, without the hair, he's back to looking like Kang Maru. It seems, he's one of the handsome/pretty boys that can rock curly hair. Love him for everything that he is...a very good charming actor. He's such a gift to a fangirl and drama addict like yours truly.
