OKay no like I was like ahahah yeah me too with this whole trend, but this one genuinely made me like double take – no TRIPLE take – because I’ve watched Waikiki S2 at least three times and I NEVER noticed Byeon Woo-seok??????? 🤯 What on earth?? It’s not even like a, ‘ohh yeah I remember him! Now I know his name!’, it’s more like I genuinely completely missed seeing him there in the first place???????
I HAD THE SAME THOUGHT. I looked at his list of cameos, and was baffled that I couldn’t remember “him” in those dramas, even if I could remember the roles. How could I not recognize across dramas anyone so tall and handsome?? 😂
FOR REAL the man is so tall like surely that would’ve made a dent in my optical memory – like at the very least, ah yes this person who I’ve seen before!
i watched it when it released.. i freaking remember everything about that movie…even the ML and his entire journey and last video and all… but still just could not remember him as BW or associate his face with that… only now when it came up, i still had to go back and check.. still blank in my memories..
or romance youth drama with bo gum…
the only thing i conclusively remember him in is that weird s2 of strong girl
I don’t know what kind of directors he has been working with 😀
Yessss this feeling exactly!!! How trippy and freaky is that!! It’s even more 🤯 when you can really recall just about everything BUT someone or something – even wilder when he’s the ML and your brain just cropped him out of your memories 😂
I know objectively that human brains aren’t exactly 100% reliable but these sorts of things really hammer that point home and now I’m wondering what and who else I’ve missed hahahah 😆

Because there are too many tall and handsome Korean actors to remember all of them 😅

His cameos were “blink and you’ll miss them” cameos. He never detracted from the maim leads or even tried to—his job was to blend in and he did.
