• Son Suk Ku Shows Off Hidden Talent by Sketching a Caricature in Just 1 Minute—Even a Famous Chef Was Shocked

    Actor Son Suk Goo surprised everyone with his impressive drawing skills on the February 2nd episode of JTBC’s Please Take Care of My Refrigerator Since 2014.

    Alongside fellow guest Hyun Bong Sik, he took on a fun challenge that revealed his unexpected artistic background!

    During the show, it was revealed that Son Suk Goo has something in common with webtoon artist Kim Poong—both have a background in art!

    The actor actually attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, one of the world’s top art schools, and is even an alumnus of the same institution as Walt Disney!

    To put their skills to the test, host Kim Sung Joo suggested a one-minute sketch challenge between Son Suk Goo and Kim Poong, with famous chef Edward Lee as the model.

    He jokingly told Son Suk Goo, “You took a 15-hour flight to get here—you should at least take something home!”

    Though Son Suk Goo humbly said, “My drawing skills are lacking, but I have an advantage in perspective,” he confidently picked up the pencil.

    In just one minute, he created a sketch that amazed everyone with its detailed and expressive strokes. Even Edward Lee was impressed and titled the drawing Hardship.

    Meanwhile, Kim Poong’s drawing got a hilarious reaction from the chef, who joked, “Is my head really that big?” In the end, Son Suk Goo was declared the winner of the challenge!

    Fans might not know, but Son Suk Goo originally studied documentary filmmaking at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

    However, as he previously revealed on You Quiz on the Block, he didn’t graduate because he had to return to Korea for military service.

    Netizens were amazed by his hidden talent, saying, “Is there anything he can’t do?” and “Son Suk Goo is seriously so cool!” What do you think of his artistic skills?
