'I Am SOLO' Star Kyungsoo Captivates with Stunning Visuals and Humble Charm
On the October 8th episode of SBS Plus and ENA's 'I Am SOLO,' the 31st season contestants were shown getting to know each other over their first dinner.
During the dinner, Youngja asked Kyungsoo if he had ever been told he resembles actor Gong Yoo. Kyungsoo, visibly flustered, responded, "This is a big deal. Please stop."
Sunja chimed in, "It's dangerous to say someone looks like a celebrity here," to which Kyungsoo humorously replied, "I'll be done for after just one episode," waving his hands to lighten the mood. He maintained a humble demeanor, insisting, "You shouldn't say I look like a celebrity."
Kyungsoo jokingly replied, "Of course, I do breathing exercises. I'm a pro," which made Youngsook burst into laughter with a bright smile.
MCs Defconn and Lee Yi-kyung observed the interactions with contrasting reactions. Defconn remarked, "Kyungsoo is so handsome he doesn't even need to work. He just talks. People like us have to grill meat and do everything, but he doesn't have to. I'm envious."
Particularly, after winning over the female contestants, Kyungsoo surprised everyone by coolly going to bed early. While other contestants were socializing over drinks, Kyungsoo retired to bed alone at 11 PM. Song Hae-na, observing this, expressed her surprise, saying, "I've never seen someone go to bed so early," while Defconn admired, "He acts like he owns the place. Impressive."
