• Jung Hae In's Fish-Shaped Bread Shop Owner Lookalike Makes TV Appearance – And His Viral Video Hits 40 Million Views!

    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!”
