Despite Seo Kang Joon being renowned for his appearance and talent, numerous K-Netizens are debating why he has been unable to achieve the same level of fame as his third-generation counterparts.
An OP on Nate Pann shared an update about idol actor Seo Kang Joon, who was discharged from the military in May 2023. According to the post, he is currently preparing for his comeback drama, “Undercover High School”, which is scheduled to air in 2025.
On Instagram, he has been teasing his followers with his physical transformation, showcasing his impressive good looks and toned physique after shedding weight.
Despite simply wearing a black T-shirt and sitting down, Seo Kang Joon’s striking looks are impossible to miss, especially with his neatly styled short hair. The photos quickly spread among netizens, sparking discussions about why he is not receiving the recognition and support he deserves, with many expressing their disappointment that he is still considered “underrated.”
Some of the comments are listed below:
- “Honestly, he’s the most handsome.”
- “If he could just find one good piece of work, that would be enough. Even though he has the looks, acting skills, and charm, it’s not easy to become popular.”
- “He’s really more handsome than Kim Soo Hyun and Park Bo Gum (of course, both are handsome) and he’s also a good actor. I wish he’d just get one hit drama.”
- “Among the male actors coming out these days, he seems to be a good-looking guy who can follow in the footsteps of Won Bin and Kang Dong Won, along with Cha Eun Woo, but he doesn’t seem to be popular. There aren’t any representative works that come to mind.”
- “The nickname ‘Face Genius’, which is often used as an adjective to describe Cha Eun Woo these days, was originally Seo Kang Joon’s nickname. But while Cha Eun Woo was popular, Seo Kang Joon was too calm, so it became ‘Face Genius=Cha Eun-woo’. But the original face genius is Seo Kang Joon.”
Seo Kang Joon first entered the entertainment industry as a member of the K-pop group, 5urprise (Surprise), which was formed by Fantagio Entertainment.
This group stands out from others as its members possess both acting and idol abilities. Along with debuting their pre-debut single, “Hey U Come On,”the group’s five members also took on lead roles in the web drama, “After School: Lucky or Not.”
In 2014, their debut single album, “From My Heart,” received widespread acclaim in their home country, while their album “5urprise Flight” gained popularity in Japan, solidifying their fame in both markets.
Regrettably, the agency’s members departed in 2020, resulting in an indefinite hiatus for the group. Following this, each member embarked on their individual endeavors, with Seo Kang Joon prioritizing his acting career.
He has appeared in numerous productions, such as “Cunning Single Lady,””What Happens to My Family,””Cheese In the Trap,””Are You Human Too,” and many others.
Despite displaying impressive acting abilities in his previous works, some netizens have argued that he has yet to find a role that truly suits him. As a result, fans are eagerly anticipating his upcoming drama in hopes that it will be his breakthrough role.
- “If only he could find a good piece of work, he would be really successful, but it’s a shame he doesn’t have an eye for it.”
- “I hope you make some hit movies and choose good scripts to write a lot. One thing is missing, one thing is missing!”
