1. [+597, -8] ㅋㅋㅋ He's always been known to be super handsome here

2. [+589, -23] Honestly, wouldn't the grandpa Oh Il Nam been a better fit here than the guy who played the police? His acting was beyond extraordinary. Why aren't they promoting the grandpa more? His character had such a large role in the show and he's on par with Lee Jung Jae in status!!

3. [+228, -7] It's funny because Koreans felt awkward seeing him like that in 'Squid Game' ㅎㅎㅎ he's been handsome for decades already!!

4. [+113, -5] He's always been considered one of the top most handsome actors in Korea but I guess kids these days don't know that...

5. [+102, -5] Funny that Americans think that... because he's always been at the top when it comes to looks here ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+19, -1] Always impressed by Lee Jung Jae's acting~

7. [+14, -1] Lee Jung Jae stood his ground up against Jung Woo Sung in the movie 'City of the Rising Sun'

8. [+13, -1] I'd love to see Oh Il Nam grandpa... he said he feels too much pressure from being so famous and would rather focus on his acting work, even turned down a 'Gganbu Chicken' CF. I wish he'd show up in one of these one day though ㅋㅋ

9. [+11, -0] Americans will be more shocked once they find out his list of past girlfriends..

10. [+12, -3] Ever since his debut, Lee Jung Jae has always been known for his handsome looks. He had a period of acting controversies but he overcame it and transformed from 'Handsome Lee Jung Jae' to 'Handsome and Good Actor Lee Jung Jae'

11. [+10, -2] I never thought he was particularly ugly in 'Squid Game' either, though ㅋㅋ

12. [+3, -0] It's funny because he's always been known as a handsome actor here who finally showed himself loosening up with 'Squid Game' ㅎㅎ
