I first saw him last year on KBS' 'Sungkyungkwan Scandal' -a period drama which also stars Park Minyoung, Park Yoochun and Song Joongki. I already knew back then that he was good-looking. That fact didn't escaped me. However, when you have both Park Yoochun and Song Joongki on the same show, you tend to neglect an unfamiliar face no matter how attractive they were. Hehe. Then, just last week, while watching Fashion King, there came a big revelation for me... Yoo Ah In is HOT!!! 

I guess you could say that he wasn't the reason why I started to watch that drama. On a side note, I also didn't watch it because of SNSD's Yuri. I watched it because I was a fan of Shin Sekyung. But after watching the first episode, I knew that other than Sekyung and the drama's story-line, I'll watch it because I wanted to see how good of an actor Yoo Ah In is. I think I might just have to watch SKK again and see why I failed to really notice him.Was it because of his character's long hair which just didn't work for me?

Hmmm... But I did think he was already attractive back then. It just wasn't on the same level as Yoochun and Joongki I guess. Lol. Anyway, as I read his profile, I found out that he's the same age as Yoochun, which means that he's 2 years younger than me (Why am I a noona to most of my Korean celebrity crushes?) Anyway, I also found out that he was also in the movie 'Antique Bakery'. I've been planning to watch that movie for so long and now I have a reason why I should really watch it. I also read that his hobbies include writing, piano, movies, music, snowboarding, and swimming. There wasn't anything else I could find about him on the web (well, those in English anyway) but I found a site that's loaded with pictures and other goodies of him. I'm sure any Yoo Ah In fan would love this tumblr dedicated just for him.
