That Super-Handsome University Student? That Might Just Be Park Bo Gum

Most netizens like to assume that their favorite Korean celebrities are just normal people like them that go about their daily lives. However, for many, this just doesn’t seem like something that could ever happen. With fame, talent, and visuals, they seem like a world away from having a normal life.

But what if you were just going about your daily lives and saw your favorite actor doing the same daily activities as everyone else? Well, that’s what exactly happened with actor Park Bo Gum.

Park Bo Gum was discharged from his official military responsibilities as part of the Korean Navy.

Following that, he had full schedules, traveling to Paris with BTS‘s V and BLACKPINK‘s Lisa for a CELINE fashion show, hanging out with V at an art exhibition, and much more.

After finishing his enlistment, Park Bo Gum also balanced his life as a normal person and an actor. He starred alongside a huge cast of fellow actors and actresses in the show Youth MT.

Yet, it also seemed like he was living the full student life. While serving in the navy, it was announced that he would be studying for a Masters degree in Music at Sangmyung University. He previously graduated from Myongji University after studying to be a musical theater major.

Well, it seems like he really is continuing his studies. On several Korean forums and news outlets, photos were shared by a netizen who believed they saw Park Bo Gum at Sangmyung University.

In the photos, which many presumed to be Park Bo Gum with his handsome visuals and aura, he was walking around the campus of the university. The man was dressed in a striped shirt, black pants, and white shoes and was wearing a black backpack.

When the images were shared online, Korean netizens couldn’t get enough, commenting “Oppa” and “Heol,” which is an exclamative used to show shock or disbelief.

Yet, it isn’t the first time a Korean celebrity has shown that they are just like everyone else. Back in 2021, a user shared a story for an OP who explained that she was sent a picture by her friend, who was in a class watching her fellow students do presentations in English. She then noticed that one of the students who was doing his presentation was called Lee Dongmin, but they thought it had to be ASTRO‘s Cha Eunwoo!

With such a busy schedule, it is shocking that Korean celebrities continue to do so much with their time. Park Bo Gum has always been praised for his impeccable work ethic, and even now, he continues to find ways to improve.
