Today, prepare to feast your eyes on the world’s Korean boyfriend… Nam Joo Hyuk. His role as Nam Do San in Start-Up propelled him to stardom and he has all the girls and guys all over the world wishing he was their childhood sweetheart. Although the star hasn’t been on the scene for very long, there’s still a lot to know about him, so sit tight, and try to hold on to something you can squeeze when Nam Joo Hyuk’s cuteness gets too much.
In the calm, seaside city of Busan, South Korea, Nam Joo Hyuk was born into a humble family on 22nd February 1994. Although the star seems like he lives a glamorous life, things weren’t easy for Joo Hyuk and his family. On an episode of Radio Star, the actor shocked the guests and viewers alike when he shared that he had only cup ramen to eat for the entire year when he was only in the third grade. On top of that, his family lives in a house that doesn’t even have a toilet! Being an only child, he also didn’t have anyone to share his troubles with, but his parents have always been by his side. What’s more, Nam Joo Hyuk might not have been the Nam Joo Hyuk we know and love today. He actually had no plans of entering the entertainment industry, and initially wanted to be a basketball player ever since he was a child! He played for 3 years while in middle school but sadly, had to quit after he sustained injuries to both legs. Boasting a height of 187cm and towering over everyone, we know for sure that he could definitely have made it as a basketball player.
