Do you know Song Joong-ki? I bet most would, and probably from his role in the world famous Korean variety show Running Man, or his acting in the Korean drama Innocent Man, right? What do you know about this handsome, baby face actor? Here are 10 fun facts about Song Joong-ki that you probably didn’t know.
Smoking
This baby-faced, bright-eyed, mischievous man used to smoke in his college days. Thankfully, he has since stopped smoking to pay attention to his skin and teeth.
Ero Joong-ki
One of his nicknames is “Ero Joong-ki”. Why? Because it is said that this dear boy Joong-ki likes hugging people and just snuggling up to people close to him. Girls out there, prepared to be swooned.
Speed Skating
Do you know that in junior high school, Joong-ki used to be a short track speed skater? He is so good in speed skating that he has won awards in National Games and sports meets.
Triple
In this drama, Joong-ki plays a national speed skater. It isn’t surprising considering his background. Also, prior to acting, his parents sent him to drama schools and take up acting classes to improve his social skills. I guess that’s where he got his superb acting skills.
Forbidden to pursue acting
Although his parents sent him for drama and acting classes, they did not want him to become an actor. It was only till later when they saw his passion that they decide to give in and let him pursue his dreams.
Beautiful Skin Project
In addition to his flawless looks, he has flawless skin too. How we wish that we could be like him, guys and girls alike. His book, Beautiful Skin Project, on men’s health and beauty has 30% of its sales from women.
No plastic surgery
Without fully knowing Joong-ki, one would think that his good looks must have been a product of cosmetic surgery but this man claimed to have never thought about plastic surgery. He doesn’t even need it *Jealous*
Smart
On top of his good looks, he is a man of substance. Joong-ki score 280 out of 400 for his college entrance exams and was admitted to Sungkyunkwan University where he majored in business economics.
However, his grades declined
After enrolling into business economics, his stellar results took a dive. It was then that he was fixated on being an actor.
Joong-ki…the girl?
Joong-ki’s mother really hoped for a daughter when she was pregnant with him so she was rather disappointed with Joong-ki. She used to tied his hair back and put him in a dress. Nevertheless, with what Joong-ki has accomplished thus far, she must be happy that he’s who he is, right?
