Go Soo models outerwear brand Merrell
by | August 25, 2009 | 24 Comments

I became a fan of actor Go Soo from his thriller drama series Green Rose, but that was a 2005 drama and he has been out of the public eye for several years as he fulfilled his military service. Although he was released more than a year ago, he has kept a low profile since then and is making a rather slow comeback. Which means Go Soo fans eager to see him back in action will have to make do with these new clothing ads for American outdoor sports brand Merrell. He appears in the ads, which were shot earlier this month, with new actress and Ha Jung-woo’s girlfriend Gu Eun-ae.

When I say he’s had a low profile, I don’t mean he’s been completely inactive — he took on a theater role for his first post-army job, and also acted in the movie Into the White Night with Sohn Ye-jin. However, the latter has yet to be released, and the former was inaccessible to all of us outside of the metro Seoul area.

    *Need eyes checked*

    For a second, I thought the headline read: ‘Go Soo models underwear brand Merrell’
    so I was a little disappointed…LOL. :P

    Looking forward to his next venture.

    lol, @ hjkomo’s comment. I would have been ecstatic if that were true.
    Nonetheless, he still looks handsome even in plain clothes.

    I really love him in Green Rose-great chemistry with Lee Da Hae there. One of the most handsome korean actor.

    @ hjkomo — me too. guess we all read what we want to read. ^^

    Strange concept for photo shoot considering how Merrell is an OUTERwear brand. These photos are not organic or doing much embracing of the outdoors at all…

    @hjkomo, retsnam_Adedekutsu, k-lover,elena, paula253: we’re all pervs people…’coz I saw the same thing!

    In a way these ads make sense, because Merrell is one of those outerwear-to-indoorwear brands; I really like their shoes, especially, for everyday wear (it’s the cool soccer-mom brand of choice!) and their pull-overs are nice. I hope he gets some drama work soon – I would love to see him in something ;-)

    Yeah this photo shoot seems rather static and he looks awkward in those clothes.

  17. 17 tina

    their pose for the last pic seems unnatural which rans counter to the image that merrell stands for – outdoors, nature, etc. and the setting is not outdoor-sy enough.

    Ah. I see influence from Prada’s fall photoshoot in this. Maybe, or Im just imagining it.

  19. 19 coffeegurl

    i really don’t know him, but i love the Merrell brand, especially their trekking and running shoes. he’s good looking though :-)

    Ko Soo looks different from days of Green Rose, handsome nonetheless. Lee Da Hae also looks like another person. So it will be interesting to cast them in another drama – missed those alluring eyes and the subtle chemistry.

    @ 8 Elena, 12 paula253, 14 simi

    You all too? ^^ I can’t believe I’m not the only one who saw the “underwear” word.

  22. 22 Sarry

    KoSoo in the clothes are really handsomes!
    the bland brand succeeded to bring out his new charm.

    love… love…. love…. love…….
