Yoo Seung-ho goes preppy for Bean Pole
by javabeans
“Korea’s Little Brother” Yoo Seung-ho, also often called “Little So Ji-sub,” has a new photo shoot out for clothing brand Bean Pole, for which Yoo is the official brand model. They were shot in April in England, in front of Oxford University, and will be used for the Spring/Summer ad campaign.
I’ll keep from squealing over a 15-year-old kid (he turns 16 in August), but he’s got a promising future, as well a super-busy year ahead.
First, Yoo was most recently filming the film Busan. He is slated to shoot the war movie 71 with Kim Bum and Seung-ri, and recently announced his upcoming high school mystery movie Fourth Period Murder Mystery with Kim So-eun. Then, he’ll have a role in the upcoming Go Hyun-jung epic historical drama Queen Seon-deok.
The reason I like Yoo Seung-ho is not only because he’s got decent acting chops, which he proved at a pretty young age (not that he’s so old now!), but he’s also shown a lot of poise as he grows into more mature roles. According to the source article, he’s apparently also known for lacking anti-fans, which puts him in a rather select group of celebrities.

adorable.
I love it that he still looks like a kid at 15 instead of trying to look like he is 20something. not sure he could with that face even if he tried.

Now he's grown and looking good.

Awww, he's adorable! I haven't seen him act in anything yet, but you keep mentioning him, so I'm starting to grow a little curious.
Now, if only my younger brother could act a little like YSH, instead of being the bratty teen he is.. :/

Wow, he aged quite gracefully. I can't say the same for other child actors unfortunately >_<
My superficial comments aside, I hope he'll do well. It's cool to see someone so young seem so secure.

I'm glad that he is growing up well even though he is on the camera a lot. I hope he keeps grounded and mature very well. Its not easy to grow up in the entertainment industry. (Yeah we have seen too many of them, got drunk. Got pregnant, underage drinking, and dui - esp in western countries) I'm looking forward to watching him lead a drama probably in like 5 or 6 years. Who knows!?

He's so cute and I really like him. I fall for him when he staring on an old movie 'The Way Home'
@biscuit
the kid playing KWS is still on the scene. If you watch E.T (English Teacher). He's there alongside with Lee Min-ho and Park Bo-young. I heard he also play a role in another movie 'Sydney in Love' or something like that...correct me if I'm wrong.

@ peachys2sleep, Jang Dong-gun is largely well-liked and doesn't have a conspicuous group of antis... I think Moon Geun-young used to be on that list, but I'm not so sure that still holds.

*sigh* what a cutie~
He has an unoffensive/unassuming air about him I noticed, a very similar air to JDG and MGY. They are a combination of kind yet oddly distant in the sense you feel the things you say wont pentrate - mysterious? So then why bother hating? Also, you gotta have a distinct set of acting chops :D
B/c if its just cute looks, there are plenty of people who will still hate - clearly its something that goes deeper than that.

thats UCL :O he's infront of the cruciform (red building) which is the medical school and then he took pictures up on the quad which is on the opposite side ... i go there too!....... the first picture made me laugh because just that area that he's taking the photo is really smelly for some unknown reason (sewage smelly)..... and he looks like hes doubling over from the smell :D
