From Child Star to Dashing Dandy
Yeo Jingoo isn’t the wide-eyed child actor you remember from The Moon Embracing the Sun. The now 26-year-old actor turned heads in Tokyo after fans spotted him looking noticeably more muscular—and just as charming.
Tokyo Sighting Goes Viral
Clad in dandy-style fashion and sporting thick black-rimmed glasses, Yeo Jingoo was captured on video casually strolling through the streets of Tokyo. The post, now circulating widely on Korean online communities and social media, came with the caption, “Just as cute as yesterday.”
Fans were quick to notice his physical transformation. “He looks at least three times bigger than his profile photo,” one fan wrote online. Another chimed in, “He’s gotten bulkier, but that heart-melting smile hasn’t changed.”
The Body Behind the Buzz
This isn’t the first time Yeo Jingoo’s physique has sparked conversation. Earlier, during the promotions of the reality game show The Great Escape: The Story on TVING, his size drew comparisons to co-star Kang Hodong, a former wrestler.
While his official profile still lists him at 176cm and 67kg, it’s clear those numbers are due for an update. According to the actor, he’s been working out regularly and maintaining a focused lifestyle. His bulking even prompted co-star Go Kyungpyo to joke, “At this point, he’s practically Brock Lesnar.”
Still the Same Smile
Despite his brawnier build, Yeo Jingoo hasn’t lost his boyish charm. His signature dimples lit up his Tokyo snapshots, reminding fans that some things—like his endearing personality—never change.
What’s Next for Yeo Jingoo?
With his name trending and fans gushing over his glow-up, this could signal a new chapter for the actor. Could an action role or superhero gig be next? One thing’s certain: Yeo Jingoo 2.0 is here, and he’s not going unnoticed.
