You may know Ahn HyoSeop from his roles in the dramas “Still 17”, “Abyss”, and “Dr. Romantic 2”. However, his most recent role has fans becoming increasingly curious about him. Here are some facts about Ahn HyoSeop that you may not know.
1. He is famous for his boyfriend material pictures
Although Ahn HyoSeop admits to not taking pictures often, they do very well when he does take them. He is known for taking pictures that make fans feel like they could’ve been taken on a date together. He says that his manager or other staff members usually take these photos for him and he also takes selfies on occasion. He even mentioned that his most confident selfie pose is from a high angle like most people.
2. He absolutely adores his pet cat
If you follow Ahn HyoSeop on Instagram, you might notice that he has an abundance of cat photos. But not just any cat, his cat BaWool. He frequently posts photos of BaWool in adoration. One of his captions even reads “BaWool, I love you even until the ends of your fur.” He is one of many other actors who are cat lovers. However, Ahn HyoSeop says that he has never seen a cat prettier than BaWool.
3. He’s a method actor
Ahn HyoSeop tries his best to get immersed in his roles. He will often go the extra mile to truly become his character. Recently, for his role in “Lovers of the Red Sky”, he has even taken to learning the Geomungo (Korean traditional zither), much like his character Ha Ram.
Ahn HyoSeop said that, at first, the instrument seemed very unfamiliar but as he kept learning how to play it, he became fond of the experience. Knowing what it is like to actually play the instrument would definitely mean a deeper performance on-screen. It is admirable to see him dedicated to his craft.
4. He has an interesting shower habit
While most people shower after they exercise, Ahn HyoSeop says that he prefers to shower before his workout. He recently appeared on the Korean variety show “Mom’s Diary: My Ugly Duckling” and revealed this interesting fact. He said that the reason why is because he wants to enjoy the workout itself and feel fresh while he’s doing it. He then added that he doesn’t shower again after the workout. Unfortunately, entertainer Seo JangHoon could not understand why he would do things that way. Ahn HyoSeop clarified that he showers before bed anyways, but the studio was still very intrigued by his interesting way of doing things.
5. His ideal type
On the same show, Ahn HyoSeop was asked what his ideal type of woman is. He answered that he likes someone bright with positive energy and he likes intelligent and wise women. He said that he likes someone that he feels like he can learn a lot from. He also hopes that they could communicate well. When Seo JangHoon listed those characteristics back to him, Ahn HyoSeop jokingly asked whether he was asking for too much. What do you think about Ahn HyoSeop?
