It’s the ever gorgeous Jang Dong Gun. He just makes me want to throw away the hustle and bustle of work, school or whatnot and just jump into that picture.

what a hottie.
2 Cookhwan October 20, 2007 at 3:53 am

I thought he was Kang Dong-won. He’d better prepare for his marriage instead of laying himself down on the sofa.
3 wendy October 20, 2007 at 3:53 am

20 monalisa October 20, 2007 at 11:05 am

Oops! I thot it was JJH!He’s in his own pad?
21 monalisa October 20, 2007 at 11:05 am

Oh, sorry! Did not read that part about the fake house!
22 Bloo October 20, 2007 at 11:30 am

I kind of want to jump on him instead.
23 panshel October 20, 2007 at 11:34 am

He is downright gorgeous in those pictures. I guessed right. I thought it was Gong Yoo at first, too, but he wasn’t an answer choice.
24 camobido October 20, 2007 at 12:30 pm

i thought it was jjh from the main pic you posted..
cos he looked so skinny with no muscles.
and jjh is skinny with no muscles, but i was pleasantly surprised to see it was the hunky spunky jdg!
25 starlight October 20, 2007 at 12:34 pm

ahhhh….that’s my gorgeous gorgeous man….love dong gun so very much!!

wonder why Dumpling haven’t commented yet….probably her fingers are now too tired to type after commenting those nonsense comments so much on dong gun’s previous post.

***waves to Dumpling…you should change your name to Dumbling instead****
26 Judy October 20, 2007 at 1:36 pm

I thought for sure (before reading the poll choices) that it was Gong Yoo…Then I thought it was Joo Ji Hoon! Gosh, I didn’t know he looked so skinny… Either way, he is most definitely one of, if not THE most sought after actor in Korea…
27 Raihana October 20, 2007 at 2:43 pm

absolute hottness..sexy without trying so hard…you know most of the cf’s he did were shot at his very own apartment..i don’t know if this is one of them..*sighs..* i just have to have his babies..
28 Dumpling October 20, 2007 at 5:07 pm

Completely boring and average.
29 Dumpling October 20, 2007 at 5:09 pm

Starlight:

Watch out–commenting to people who haven’t even commented yet in the first place makes you look desperate and stupid.
30 starlight October 20, 2007 at 5:15 pm

sorry Dumbling….what i think will make a person looks desperate and stupid is when he/she commented like 10 times in row on somebody he/she doesn’t even like….now that’s what i call stupid and desperate…
31 jicks October 20, 2007 at 5:35 pm

OMG In my next life I want to come back as that couch lol

And look! Dumpling’s in the house again! By the way, sorry I missed the bit where you said you love Tae Guk Gi- at least that’s one thing we agree on- I think I must’ve been overwhelmed by all the crap you were regurgitating.

One last thing, name-calling hurts. I would never call you an idiot out loud.
32 RainArgifel October 20, 2007 at 9:14 pm

hehehe…who told yu he’s hot…he’s juzt a little mature than others
33 Aya October 20, 2007 at 9:25 pm

I dont find him that attractive, maybe its the hair or the moustache.
34 Dumpling October 20, 2007 at 11:33 pm

” somebody he/she doesn’t even like….”

People do it ALL THE TIME on this blog. Don’t act shocked and surprised. You only care because it involves someone YOU like. That make you childish and immature. But I bet you take no notice when Rain fans have to read repeated insults about him, or Lee Hyori or Bae Yong Joon, or any of the numerous celebs who are alternately adored and hated around here. Get over yourself and please grow up.
35 Dumpling October 20, 2007 at 11:38 pm

“I would never call you an idiot out loud.”

You’re free to call me whatever you want to because it has no bearing on me. It only makes you look like a cry-baby. A sad, tantrum-throwing cry-baby. “Boo-frickin-hoo, someone doesn’t love my idol as much as I do. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!!”
36 Rayne October 21, 2007 at 2:44 am

dong gun is ok i guess
his eyes pop out too much…..(koreans have terrible eyes, unless they screw themselves up with plastics)

but yeah. i guess he’d be decent looking if his eyes and beardy things didn’t make him look like a HOBO.

kinda reminds of of Frodo (elijah wood) in lord of the rings… like what he’d look like if he grew up or something.
37 nacom202 October 21, 2007 at 5:38 am

i agree.
hotness.
XD
38 JP October 21, 2007 at 6:29 am

I guessed right and i’m not even that into the guy. Must be reading POPSEOUL way too much. But I do love this blog- it is soooooooooooooo superficial and opinionated. He semmes like a nice guy.
39 KanginsFutureGF October 21, 2007 at 8:40 am

ooo… my mom’s a fan of jang dong gun… and what did you say about koreans having terrible eyes (rayne)??? i think that koreans have good eyes.
40 PVL October 21, 2007 at 10:02 am

There is no doubt that he is good looking, but he seems too refine for my liking and those types are unpredictable and they don’t make life more interesting.
41 kris October 21, 2007 at 2:28 pm

Am I the only one who doesn’t think he’s gorgeous looking?
42 fizzlex3mh October 21, 2007 at 2:55 pm

For such an old celebrity, Jang Dong Gun really good-looking. But, I don’t think he’s that hot compared to other Korean actors. Although in that Giordano CF with Rain and Jung Ryu Won, he looks AMAZING.
43 jenny October 21, 2007 at 6:05 pm

hahahaha… can i read you a book……… instead of you reading, i’ll like to read it to ya!!!
44 Gina_Tay October 22, 2007 at 3:21 am

Yay….I guessed it right
I know he is not Joo JiHoon becoz popseol wrote:

Base on my observation, every article about JJH always sounds sarcastic.
On the other hand, popseoul always praising JDG, Jo In Sung, Song Seung Hun, no matter what they r wearing.

So this is actually a very easy one.
45 uhuh October 22, 2007 at 9:39 am

hahaha I guessed this right, because i looked at his feet
46 jacaheyo October 22, 2007 at 1:46 pm

i just can’t imagine him in spectacles XD
47 bambi October 22, 2007 at 7:43 pm

Popseoul, I just love you more when you feature my “son-in-law” !

His CNN interview reveals what kind of man he is — answering all those questions with such finesse, incredible intelligence, and so exceptionally humble!

Thank you Popseoul !
48 Annyeong October 22, 2007 at 9:15 pm

DAMNIT! MARRY ME JANG DONG GUN!!! =D
49 mylasan October 22, 2007 at 11:59 pm

JDG is really hot in this CF. At his age, he is still so gorgeous looking.
50 mystique October 23, 2007 at 12:22 am

He is so cute, luv this CF so much. Thanks Popseoul!

52 anonymous-y October 23, 2007 at 6:40 pm

ow. i got it wrong. i thought it was kang dong won.
i’m not feelin’ jang dong gun so much cuz…i’m more jis-kdw-jjh generation. although, i do think jdg is handsome…and older, more mature.
53 Bluefeet October 23, 2007 at 11:56 pm

Omo, I thought it was Joo Ji Hoon!
