Kim Jong Oh, the owner of a popular fish-shaped bread shop and Jung Hae In's, has captured the hearts of viewers after making a surprise appearance on Morning Yard.

On January 6, KBS 1TV’s Morning Yard aired an episode featuring non-celebrity guests, including Kim Jong Oh, who’s been compared to actor Jung Hae In because of his strikingly similar appearance.

The 27-year-old, who also works as a freelance model and café owner, became an internet sensation after a video of him baking fish-shaped bread went viral.

Kim Jong Oh revealed, “When I first started selling fish-shaped bread, I posted a video of me baking, and it reached over 40 million views! I never expected it to blow up like this.”

He also shared why he decided to start selling this popular treat. “Fish-shaped bread has always been my favorite winter snack. But recently, many street vendors selling them have disappeared due to high living costs, so I thought, ‘Why not give it a try?’”

While fans couldn’t stop complimenting his good looks, Kim Jong Oh explained, “I didn’t expect to get this much attention. I usually run my business in Sinlim-dong, but that day I decided to visit Haebangchon and dress up a bit to sell. It’s a busy area, so I guess I stood out more.”

Local singer Lee Do Jin, who lives in Haebangchon, also shared his excitement. “I saw a new fish-shaped bread shop on my way home last Saturday. The line was so long, I thought they were filming something! I never expected to see him on a broadcast!”

BTS member J-Hope has truly made a mark in the U.S. market, and it’s clear that his popularity knows no bounds!

On February 28th, during the latest episode of MBC’s variety show I Live Alone (episode 585), viewers got a glimpse into J-Hope’s daily life in LA, where he was busy working on his solo album.

The episode showed him visiting a busy shopping mall in California, and what happened next was nothing short of amazing.

While shopping for meat at a butcher’s shop, J-Hope was approached by a young girl who asked, “Can you take a photo with my sister?”

This request was just the beginning! Soon after, more fans gathered around asking for photos and autographs.

One man even mentioned, “My friend works here, can I get an autograph?” But the real shocker came when a grandmother approached him and said, “My grandchildren are your fans.”

Park Na Rae was in awe, exclaiming, “It doesn’t matter the nationality. Even grandmothers are coming!”

J-Hope, always humble, couldn’t believe how widely recognized he was. “I didn’t think I’d be recognized in the local market,” he admitted.

But Jeon Hyun Moo quickly shut him down, saying, “What are you talking about? You’re a world star.”

He continued, “Americans usually don’t do that kind of thing. Even if Keanu Reeves takes the subway, people don’t acknowledge him.”

Jeon Hyun Moo’s words perfectly captured just how incredible J-Hope’s global fame has become!

From fans of all ages to being recognized in the U.S. with ease, J-Hope is truly a world star!
