There are constantly reports – and videos – of him doing thoughtful things for the people around him, both fellow actors and his staff. All his co-stars rave about how nice he is and he has been seen feeding staff members with his own spoon, helping out at the wardrobe and makeup department of his shows during his off days and even helping to tie the shoelaces of a cameraman.

Ok, I might be biased but the general consensus is that he’s killing it in his new drama “Love In The Moonlight”. Trust me, it’s hard not to swoon watching him as a cheeky yet conflicted crown prince in love with a girl posing as a eunuch (it sounds confusing, I know. You’ll just have to watch it). And if that doesn’t seem like your cup of tea, you can also catch him as a genius Baduk player in “Reply 1988” or as a psychotic killer in “Hello Monster”.

Most girls are suckers for guys who are good at music. He is not only an accomplished pianist (he often plays for his church’s services), his voice is good too! You’ll be able to hear him soon as he has just recorded a song for his drama “Love In The Moonlight”.

Despite being one of the hottest stars in Korea now, he still takes public transport as he feels it helps him be punctual. Fans are often snapping pictures of him on the train listening to music and playing with his handphone like any regular person.

I know that sounds like a bad thing, but would you really want a guy to be more vain and dressed up than you? It’s kinda cute how he always look so fashionable at work events but shows a totally lack of effort or style on his down time. He often wears sneakers with socks to above his ankles, too tight jeans shorts and over-sized shirts that make him look like a little kid.

Bogum has been quite open about his family’s financial troubles. His father went into debt and named the then 15-year-old Bogum as the guarantor. Because of this, the teenager started sending out audition tapes so he could start working to help his father with the debt. Despite his troubles, he’s still extremely close to his family and even still lives with them.

The devout Christian is known for his dislike of both alcohol and cigarettes, and often has a child-like appreciation for every new opportunity and experience.

As a beauty journo, skin is obviously VERY important to me and Bogum has one of the best I’ve ever seen, even for a celebrity. Fair and almost translucent, he has skin that even women would envy. I know I do.
