My coworker also finds him infuriatingly annoying. I'm more or less indifferent to him, although I do find that show Health Club that he's in to be strangely mesmerizing. Anyway, I wanted to figure out his name so I can find a good picture of him on the Internet which I can set as my coworker's desktop background, and possibly print out for her desk at work. She deserves only the worst.

Have you seen him in the Towngent commercials then? You'd be wetting your lil' panties.

He's on every channel... along with the dozen-or-so other celebrities in this country. Nearly every day I spend here I'm reminded of that Henry Ford quote: "You can have a Model T in any color you like as long as it's black."

First time i asked my wife why he was on TV she said he went to an ivy League school.

Asked her again today,she said jamiopda,and so did her sister.

Seriously.Why is this cvnt on my screen?

It's annoying.What do Koreans go for?!Put Kim Tae hee into the same basket.Oh,but,she went to Seoul Dae....brains and beauty.


I hated being on korean TV and made every attempt to be factual.is there any reason why people enjoy being on TV outside of money or dumbass ego.I did mine in school time.Feel free to slag me.

All the older koreans (everyone above the age of 25) think he's a waste of space and is totally annoyed with him. He's completely hyperactive and random, the ultimate mental oriental and that's what appeals to the younger koreans. As long as you try not to make any sense of what he's doing and saying, he's actually pretty funny.

They really don't have many personalities on Korean TV. I don't think you at any point of the day can go through your 60 or so cable channels without spotting 유재석.

But I admire how he can manage to appear on all those shows and make anyone between the age of 5 and 85 laugh. Even me sometimes!... So at least he has talent Smile

There is also that other guy with glasses. The one with the really big teeth and mouth, dont remember his name. Between them, these two guys host about half Korean TV-shows it seems.
