[theqoo] CHA EUNWOO'S INTERNATIONAL POPULARITY THAT KOREANS ARE UNAWARE OF

Surprisingly, a lot of people seem to believe that Cha Eunwoo was asked to appear at APEC only because he's handsome

"A presidential official explained, "We invited Cha Eunwoo to reflect global interest in K-pop and K-culture and to promote it on the international stage." This means that he is recognized as a figure who symbolizes the soft power of Korean culture."

The real reason is that they invited Cha Eunwoo, who is popular overseas, to promote Korea internationally.

1. Me too, I watched True Beauty out of nowhere and fell for him. I saw a lot of posts swearing at him but his acting was actually fine ㅋ

2. He's definitely our cultural asset

3. National treasure 

4. So everybody knows 

5. Ah it's such a shame that True Beauty was eating from Chinese capital ㅠㅠ

6. It's my first time knowing he has international fans 

7. I didn't know the drama did so well overseas

8. I knew True Beauty was successful, but not THAT successful 

9. Wow I didn't know he was this popular 

10. Promotion of national interest, that's right
