• Actor Son Seok Koo Casually Flexes His English Skills, And No, We’re Not Okay

    Son Seok Koo won over the hearts of his female fans by showing off his incredible English skills.

    On June 18, a video called "Jang Chen vs. Kang Hae Sang: Who Do You Think Will Win?" was posted on the official YouTube channel for ESQUIRE Korea.

    In the video, Son Seok Koo read his profile and then started to change the parts that were wrong.

    Son Seok Koo looked at the "key skills" section and saw "English, boxing." "I haven't boxed in a long time," he said with a smile. And it's been a while since I spoke English. Let's say I don't have any skills that make me stand out."

    But he also said, "I've been enjoying calligraphy and painting lately."

    Son Seok Koo clicked on the video "Sexy detective Mun speaking English" while reading his profile. In the Netflix original drama "Sense8," which was shown in the video, Son Seok Koo spoke English with Bae Doo Na.

    Son Seok Koo looked in the mirror and pretended to speak English. With a low voice, he showed that he could speak English as well as a native speaker. This won the hearts of his fans right away.

    Fans said things like, "He speaks English well", and "What isn't he good at?"

    Son Seok Koo told the world on this day that his MBTI type was ENFP. When he saw Captain Im Ji Seop's first appearance in Netflix's "D.P.," he said, "Personally, this was one of my favorite performances I've done so far."

    Son Seok Koo recently became very popular because of the drama "My Liberation Notes" and the movie "The Roundup." He is currently filming commercials and the dramas "Casino" and "D.P. Season 2," both of which will air soon.

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service.
