Flower boy next door Yoon Shi-yoon for CeCi
by girlfriday
Aw, it’s Ke-geum-ie! It’s going to take me a while before I stop seeing Yoon Shi-yoon as his Flower Boy Next Door character, not that I ever want to. He really took adorable to new heights in that role. The show might’ve fallen short in the end, but it did leave some memorable characters behind, and Yoon Shi-yoon’s Enrique really takes the cake. (The quirky, oddly-shaped toothache-inducing cake, but who cares about that in the face of this much Cute?) Here he is in a spread for CeCi Campus, looking as impish as ever and playing up the charm.
The 27-year old actor said in an interview with Newsen that his personality isn’t anything like his Flower Boy Next Door character, but that he does identify with Enrique’s man-child (what he calls adult-child) in-between-ness. Fitting, since that seems to be exactly where he is right now on the actor spectrum, and I like that he plays to it instead of trying to outgrow it too quickly.
Yoon: “A lot of people saw the bouncing Ke-geum-ie and asked how I acted a character whose personality was the total opposite of my own. But I have that adult-child side in me too. Ke-geum is an adult-child, and a young prince [he means a la “The Little Prince,” which he mentions as a source of inspiration] who looks upon the lives of adults. Ke-geum-ie is that kind of character.”
He continues: “Everyone has an adult-child inside of them too. But society tells us that we have to hurry up to become adults and hold certain qualifications in one hand and duty in the other, in order to be impressive. It would be nice to enjoy being an adult-child. That an adult-child can give happiness too — that’s what I wanted to portray as an actor.”
Well then I’d call Ke-geum-ie a raging success on that score. Thanks for the happy.

Wait, he's 27 years old? Not that it matters...he has a total baby face.
And I'm dying from the cute...who else is dying from the cute?

But being a flower boy, it is a matter of time before the bloom is off. Just like with girls.
In some photos, I cannot even tell if the person in the photo is a boy or a girl.

That's just another trait of being a flower boy. So pretty that they can be almost prettier than girls.

People always say that and that is SOOOO NOT true.
Yes - I get it that some females like their guys "safe" and androgynous looking, but there's no way androgynous looking guys like Yoon Shi-yoon look prettier than a Kim Tae-hee, Shin Min-ah, etc.
These androgynous looking guys all look a bit weird and to most, conventionally handsome guys like Oh Ji-ho, Kim Sung-soo, Won Bin, etc. look more "pretty" (in the way that a George Clooney or Brad Pitt is a "pretty boy" - meaning good-looking but not feminine/androgynous).
Put a wig, make-up and a dress on Yoon Shi-yoon and he would look like an androgynous guy in drag and not a pretty girl.
And really - he's 27? (He has the build of a 12 yr old boy.)

Eh, it's neither nor, just laying it out there.
Song Jong-ki, Kim Bum (in his younger years), Yeo Jin-goo, etc. are actually "pretty boys" - having good features, but still having that "boyish" look.
Yoon Shi-yoon and others like him, otoh, have that weird androgynous look (which in no way makes them "pretty" like a pretty woman).

No. He has the body of a 27 year old man, since he is a 27 year old man. It just so happens that the bodies of 27 year old men can include a range of appearance wider than you appreciate. That doesn't mean that suddenly his physical existence is impossible or wrong in some way, as your verbal de-aging of him suggests.

Ooh did someone mention Jun ki? Loved loved him in Arang and the Magistrate. And I think he is one of those rare men who manage both - the young, cute androgynous look and the manly appearance - well.
I think this Yoon Shi Yoon photo shoot is simply amazing. I won't forget Enrique any time soon, that's for sure. He made a seemingly annoying character so lovable and endearing.

just a question, does the korean pop culture discourage hairy legs for men? or are korean men naturally not hairy (AT ALL) in general?
i mean, i don't think i've ever taken notice of korean male celebrity with hairy legs and that makes me think it's because hairy legs don't actually exist in this side of the world.

I've seen a few with hairy legs, lower legs anyway. I think in general Asians have less body hair than, say,Caucasians. Fine by me! While I do enjoy a well-defined happy trail and perhaps a bit of hair on the chest, whisker-burn and bear-like men are not a big turn on :)

I think it's just an Asian thing (as opposed to just a Korean thing). I'm Asian and my legs are as bare as can be. But my older brother got some hairy ass legs. But my dad's legs are also bare. It's weird. I think we just tend to be less hairy though in general. Some of my friends who are also Asian can't even grow facial hair haha.

nope. dying from the cute happened the last time I looked at Yoo Seung Ho. you can't make a noona double-dead. or... I may be... wrong... <3 @_@ <3 <3
speaking of YSH, him and YSY can stand side-by-side, and at some angles I might say the earlier may be older.
Good thing YSY is 27. Narrower age gap = less guilt. ;)

I think the words about feeling this pressure to impress is very true. it is suffocating
why cant we all just be "a person". impressive just by living our lives, being an individual.
it is hard when someone says " you are worthless, no one needs you, cause you have no job / money" or "you are uncool, cause you are not like ME!" man, child, i think it is also meant in the sense of "playing happily togewther with everyone.

The ones coming out of MS with killer abs will surely distract you. Like say, by the time Lee Min Ho enters MS, Yoo Seung Ho would be coming out - even hotter than before.
Anyway, time flies. It was like yesterday that I was sad that Gong Yoo was entering MS. Now he's been through several movies, a lot of post-MS CFs, and a drama series. ;)

He is a really good actor if he could portray a carachter complety different from his personality, because it let you grow as an actor. And I love how he played it, because we actually care for him and understand his motivations.
And this pictorials, I think the theme really was following with Enrique, because I'll still seen him as that forever, its a carachter that will go with me as very good example of a great man.

This term "Flower boy/boys"..where did it originate? Did the Korean drama coin this term or is it there in English dictionary? Maybe some one could shed light on this. the first time I ever heard of that phrase was when I watched Flower boy Ramyun and then I keep seeing the phrase but in relation to Korean celebrities only. thanks!

The first time I heard about it is from the English translation of Japan's comic series Hana Yori Dango (Dumplings Over Flowers - a proverb about choosing practical things over aesthetics). The characters for "dumplings" were altered to read like "boys" (danshi), so it means something like choosing the boys over the flowers. Like Flower Boys are guys who are more attractive than flowers. Opposite of which, I think, are the Beast Men.

Flower Boy is an ancient term. Google Hwarang. I do not know what started it in the current pop culture manifestation, but Hana Yori Dango is a good bet. In pop culture context my understanding is that Flower Boys are young, very beautiful, usually metrosexual, meaning fashion conscious, stylish, well groomed, Asian men.
I think Hana Yori Dango for the manga purpose was multi-faceted.
Hana Yori Dango=Dumplings Over Flowers=Boys over Flowers=Practical Over Aesthetics=Beauty is only skin deep=the boys were more than just pretty and rich, they were human beings.
AND
Hana Yori Dango=Dumplings Over Flowers=Boys Over Flowers=Practical Over Aesthetics=Beauty is only skin deep=Bros over Hos.
AND
Hana Yori Dango=Dumplings Over Flowers=Practical Over Aesthetics=Beauty is only skin deep=the strong enduring weed over a fragile hot house flower aka Makino/Shancai/JanDi

Does wearing or not wearing makeup change your gender or your sex?
If a woman doesn't wear make up, does she stop being a woman? Does the state of your gender/sex increase or decrease as you apply or remove cosmetics?
What's the Female/Male vs. Cosmetics Formula?
- Foundation + lipstick = 50% Woman
- Foundation + lipstick + eyeliner = 80% Woman
- No make up + the sweat from hunting animals = 100% Dudebro
I'm unclear about the math, actually...

There's nothing wrong with your first sentence about your personal preferences. It's the second sentence that's offensive. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a man wearing make up, stage make up or street make up, and it does not lessen his state of being a man. By implying so you have not only insulted men who wear make up but also women who don't as if their genders change because of some cosmetic usage.

His acting chops are really remarkable. I remember seeing him on the FBND Strong Heart special and his personality is indeed the total opposite of Enrique - the serious kinda guy who carries a book with him wherever he goes. I think this just proves that he does indeed possess the acting skills to pull any role off. And omg he is such a baby face. He looks younger than a lot of my classmates...and I'm only 18 (though I'm always mistaken for being 12 ㅜ.ㅜ)

I agree with you about his acting. I watched Me Too Flower (which I enjoyed) and his character was completely different. He might be on his way to becoming as good an actor as Kim Myung Min.

THIS YES. Thank you -- I hate how the idea is forwarded that (a) all men have to look one way to be attractive and (b) if your tastes are outside that range there's something wrong with you/you need to get with the hair/bulky/ultra macho program or something.

It's like Enrique came and erased all memories of how Kim Tak Gu was. How versatile, YSY.

Although Enrique was my favorite character in FBND, I hope to see Yoon Shi Yoon more than "Enrique" in the future. We've mostly seen Enrique's emotional growth, but there can be other sides in a character that would be interesting to investigate (humane, spiritual, etc). And I believe Yoon Shi Yoon is the right person to shed some light on those as well.

I watched Kim Tak Gu after FBND and it was really, really hard not to see him as Enrique although the character is so totally different :D

Que Geumie bogoshipo!
To wean myself off of FBND been watching You Tube fan vids and the Strong Heart episode of FBND in Dramafever.
He is very different from the character that he plays. There is only one common denominator. He retains that cuteness.
He seems like a very nice person who had an unusual upbringing, raised by his grandparents in a very traditional fashion, and thus came to be a very serious polite young man. Can't blame Park Shin Hye for changing her "ideal type" from funny guy to serious guy after getting to know YSY.
I'm also very jealous of his hair! :)

He looks so young , however his voice gives him away. It's so masculine and strong...My favorite thing about him, besides his eyes...
I will miss his character and the whole drama also, actually it's only been a week, but i'm missing the drama already u.u

For me Daniel Choi is like the standard of how men are SUPPOSED to look like at that age. Age-vibe-wise, anyway. He might be a bit more handsome than most =P
And then I realize Song Joong Ki is actually older than him, and Yoon Si Yoon is the same age D: It just... doesn't... compute.
Another random fact: Yoon Si Yoon is a year older than Lee Min Ho.

All of them look like their age (IMO). I think it's the fact that some people associate certain facial features (that have to do with age) with maturity and also that all of these men have very different personas is what confuses a few.

In my part of the world, androgynous is just a polite way of saying they look gay, perhaps pretty, but still gay.
I hope Yoon Shi-Yoon beefs up some. Put some muscles on, boy!

Interesting to hear that Que-geum is the opposite of the real him. He did well in the drama. There were times when it was a little too irritating but I think he brought the drama to sweetness overload =D especially in the earlier episodes.

It was like a mental breakdown for me these days to see how different his characters were because I was watching Baker king on TV and FBND on my laptop and it only got worse since I remembered I watch Me too, Flower too lol despite him saying hes not like happy bouncy EnLique, Im still in the clouds wanting my own EnLique xD I couldnt agree more with his adult-childs' comments :))
PS: he does look younger than he actually does but his voice... unff xDD I was like O__O the 1st time I hear him talk in Me Too, Flower... unconsciously you spend a less deep voice...
