Popular Star Turns 40 In Korea But Looks To Be In His 20s

Joo Woo Jae is a popular model, actor, and television personality in South Korea. He is known for his work as a panelist on many shows such as Love Naggers, Beat Coin, Hangout With Yoo, and more. He also acted in various hit dramas such as Please Don’t Date Him.

Despite his youthful features, the star was actually born in 1986! This makes him 40 years old in South Korean age in 2025. Although Koreans have abolished the Korean age system as of June 2024, many still find it comfortable to use the old age system where a baby is a year old when born. Each year, you age on New Year’s Day rather than on your birthday.

Netizens were shocked to find out his age.

• I would believe it if you said he was in his late 20s.
• He looks around my age FR.
• I didn’t believe it, so I just searched it up.
• Seems like people who have small appetites are all babyfaced…
• I’d believe if you said he was 30.
• I saw first saw him on Charming TV back then, and he was 30. Time flies…
• Wow, I really can’t believe it.

He’s not the only star that looks younger than their years.
