Yoo Yeon-seok has claimed a parallel theory with GOT7's Jinyoung as both actors star in dramas airing at the same time. Jinyoung's JTBC drama 'Shining' has seen its ratings drop to 0% as it competes with Yoo Yeon-seok's SBS drama 'God and Law Office,' which has surpassed 10% ratings by its sixth episode.
On October 31 at 9 PM, SBS's variety show 'Whenever Possible' will feature hosts Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Yeon-seok, along with 'gap friends' actors Park Hae-soo and Lee Hee-jun, offering a healing chat chemistry in Ssangmun-dong.
While strolling around Ssangmun-dong, Yoo Jae-suk, Yoo Yeon-seok, Park Hae-soo, and Lee Hee-jun encountered a passerby who reacted enthusiastically to Yoo Yeon-seok, saying, “Oh, you’re so handsome.” Yoo Jae-suk jokingly complained, “I’m feeling left out,” bringing laughter to the group.
The compliments from the passerby led to an unexpected 'praise theory talk.' Yoo Jae-suk remarked, “Even among close friends, compliments like ‘handsome’ or ‘pretty’ are rare. I’m not one for empty words,” adding, “There are colleagues who make me spontaneously say, ‘Wow, you’re handsome.’” Park Hae-soo chimed in, “I felt the same when I saw GOT7’s Jinyoung. I couldn’t help but say, ‘Your eyes are so beautiful.’”
Amidst this, Yoo Yeon-seok suddenly claimed parallels with Jinyoung, causing a stir. He raised his voice, saying, “Jinyoung and I have a lot in common,” capturing the attention of his peers. When Yoo Jae-suk teased, “Are you saying you look alike?” a flustered Yoo Yeon-seok quickly clarified, “I mean we both moved from Gyeongsang Province to Seoul.”
Reports have surfaced that Yoo Yeon-seok showcased his barista skills on the drama set, sparking curiosity. Yoo Yeon-seok and Park Hae-soo previously worked together on the overseas shoot of the drama 'Suriname,' where Park Hae-soo praised, “The coffee Yoo made was really delicious,” proving 'Barista Yoo’s' expertise.
Yoo Yeon-seok boasted, “I brought my drip coffee tools. I have a certification, you know,” to which Park Hae-soo added, “Hwang Jung-min and Ha Jung-woo also loved it,” boosting Yoo Yeon-seok’s confidence.
Additionally, Yoo Yeon-seok offered special fan service for a 'Gu Dong-mae' fan, recreating the iconic 'skirt scene,' which reportedly thrilled the audience.
