Park Seo-joon Reveals He Receives Frequent 'Appearance Criticism', Stuns Co-stars

Actor Park Seo-joon has revealed that he often faces criticism regarding his appearance, leaving his co-stars surprised.

In a video uploaded on the YouTube channel 'Director Go Chang-seok' on the 2nd, titled 'Park Seo-joon: Isn't His Visual Not Leading Role Level?', the actor shared an unexpected anecdote.

During a conversation with hosts Oh Jon and Go Chang-seok, along with fellow actor Heo Joon-seok, Oh Jon praised Park Seo-joon's looks, stating he was an actor whose acting skills were 'underrated for his visuals.'

However, Park Seo-joon interjected, confessing, "I'm the one who receives the most criticism about my appearance." This statement caught Oh Jon and Heo Joon-seok completely off guard, who repeatedly asked, "Really?" and "Criticism about your looks?"

Park Seo-joon calmly responded, "I don't pay it any mind," while Go Chang-seok reconfirmed, "Did I hear that right... Seo-joon gets criticized for his looks?"

"Well, that's how it is," Park Seo-joon replied. Oh Jon speculated, "It's possible some people might think, 'He's not quite leading role material,' and leave all sorts of comments."

Later in the conversation, Go Chang-seok jokingly brought up directors, saying, "It's the director's fault when actors don't act well," and even mentioned the director of 'Gyeongseong Creature,' prompting Park Seo-joon to distance himself from the chair in a humorous gesture.

Netizens reacted with disbelief and support to Park Seo-joon's revelation. Comments included, "Shocking that an actor like him gets appearance criticism," "Park Seo-joon is just handsome, period," and "He's truly a professional actor to not let it bother him."
