Gong Yoo in Portugal for Harper’s Bazaar
by girlfriday
*swoon* Hi, pretty. Buh… what was I gonna say?
Oh, right. Here’s my boyfriend in Portugal for Harper’s Bazaar. You’re welcome.
Look, I know, some of the pants are of questionable tightness and length, but that seems to be a battle I will never win against Korean fashion. At least his hair’s lookin’ good. All the better to imagine an afternoon spent with your fingers running through it, eh?
You’re welcome. Again.

Oh, YUM. I love this hairstyle on him.
I wish he would come back to dramas. Movies are great, but it means we see him so much less often, for less time... :(

a. He doesn't want the grueling kdrama work style that must have gotten worse from last time he's been on one; or
b. He's playing "the more you miss me, the more I'm hot" game
It works. Especially when we see him look hotter every time new photos of him are out. (Thank you for posting Girlfriday!) :)
Here he looks like the better-looking, Korean half-brother of Benicio del Torro. (Esp. 2nd photo.) Hawt!

Seriously, is he for real? Everything about him is perfection... Like in that picture w the trench, he looks like a manga-character come to life. Sigh, he really needs to play a role where he shows off his looks. I'm proud of him for tackling movies like Crucible, but c'mon, throw a girl a bone!

In a world where showers were meant to end, and people wear clothes and do things, comes a phenomenom not unlike the premise behind Groundhog Day, only this time, it's Gong Yu, naked, trapped in a shower for 16 hours with nothing to do but brood....

Gong Yoooooooo....
I just finished watching Coffee Prince, and I have to say: he completely brought to life a sweet, vulnerable, loving, strong but tender man. I went from Gong Who? to absolute love over 17 episodes.
Of course Ji Sung is still my number one...but this guy is pretty high on my list too.
And I'll admit (but only here) that for out and out blush-worthy fantasy? Rain. Something about that baby face combined with that BODY, and I love the husky voice and the cheekiness. Watching A Love to Kill now.

What the whaaaaaat!! Gong Yoo in my country... what a missed opportunity... I would love to have seen a glimpse of him! Love the city Porto but honestly they chose some really dodgy places! Oh well, maybe that was the idea/concept? Still, Gong Yoo eclipses everything around him.
The photos are nice but he must have been really hot in those winter clothes. The weather around Europe is weird right now, it's like summer, incredibly hot.

The hair. I mean, seriously? No, like, SERIOUSLY?! Is it just me or is greasy, middle-parted hair really a turn off? I love him, he's hot and all, but that is unforgivable. Unless he's channeling Snape or something, but that ain't sexy in my book. The last pic reminds me of Hyun Bin in his movie Love Me, Love Me Not with all the hair touching, flipping, twirling (the last one I kid). Just. No.
I love the clothes though. They're really fab.

I heard Korean people likes healthy food, doing helathy habit like sports, sauna etc, but, smoking is exception? *hiks*

But WHY do people persist in propagating the idea that smoking is cool? Smoking is NOT cool. Beyond the obvious health concerns, smoking is just nasty and stinky. Let us please stop using smoking in photoshoots as a shortcut to portraying"coolness". How about let's have our celebrities, I don't know, helping people.

Okay, so, I do not smoke. I dislike smoke. It makes me cough and choke and turn red and generally look awful/awkward/like I'm dying.
However.
I get the aesthetic in these photos. There's a real nice throw-back feel to them, to those Euro-art films from the 60s where cool guys sat around without talking, staring into the distance and smoking a cigarette. I get it.
And I kinda dig it.
But yeah. IRL, the cloud of smoke is zilcho attractive-o. Yeah-o.
