I know somebody will come and mention his smile in the comment section too so I want to be that person!
He was born to smile and brighten up the whole world. The end.

-pokes @bammsie-

Bogummyyyyy! I loveeee him!

I discovered the brilliant actor that he was in I Remember You, fell in love with the adorableness that was Taekie in AM88 and swooned over the mischievous prince he was in MDBC. Add in dollops of "angel on earth" that was him in Youth Over Flowers and trust me, it's a perfect recipe!

I have dropped Encounter as it didn't attract me a lot but I am gonna turn up for his next project for sure <3

P.S. That smile! Such a sunshine!

I call him my Ultimate Bread for a reason, I suppose. Baker that I am, I love the seeming simplicity of bread : All one really needs is flour, yeast, and water. You can mix it up with other ingredients for some pizazz, but even with those three ingredients, something warm, genuine, and deliciously wonderful is delivered into your hands. He livens and brightens dramas with his presence, and is a sturdy, reliable base, so there’s a trust that, whatever role he’s playing, he will do well and make us feel. (...am I the only one who has these emotions towards bread? Okay.)

And just as time adds depth and complexity of flavor to bread, PBG’s acting has only improved throughout the years. His micro-expressions, smile, and eyes have somehow become even better than they were before. (Or maybe.. maybe I’m just more endeared. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

Now for some simple substitution :
Bread = Comfort
Bread = PBG
PBG = Comfort (unless he’s crying or playing a lovable psychopath, in which case... listen to your best jams and cry as you try to offer hugs through the screen.)

I’ll stop my rambling with : PBG, you’re swell. Keep up the good work. I don’t want to eat you.

He's probably the first and last psychopath I'll ever sympathize with.

Most definitely my second favorite actor out there, because he manages to make me care about him on a personal level (which I rarely ever care about who an actor is outside of acting). I even named our cat after him. Moonlight is my second favorite kdrama and I just missed live watching this. I have about a dozen kdrama ideas floating in my head and half of them I would want him playing the lead or co-lead. He can play dark, light, mischievous, the lover or antagonist, and as we saw in Reply 1988, the dark horse as well. AND. THAT. FACE. Thank the Lord he has that face and has chosen a career that graces us with it.

The first time I ever saw PBG was in I Remember You and he BLEW me away. Especially after seeing what his real self is like.
I honestly can't think of any other Korean actor in his mid-20s of his calibre, acting-wise.

Since the first time I saw him on screen, he has consistently blown me away. I'm always attracted to his work, not necessarily because he's starring in it (although that's a big incentive), but because it's usually a well-told story. I think he has a good eye in choosing scripts.
MDBC and I Remember You are both in my top 10 dramas, and currently I'm really loving Encounter.
I'm honestly lucky to exist in the same era with such talent.
I hope he keeps on choosing wonderful scripts like these in the future...
And ofc continue to light up the world with his kindness and smile.

Bless you miss vic. Thank you. Thank you. (Why am i crying writing this?) Darn PBG syndrome.

Taekie~♥️ Reply 1988, one of all time favourites ever. I’ll always remember Park Bo Gum for playing my most favourite male lead - the kind of male lead who doesn’t yell and look down on the girl that he likes. Who remains soft spoken to her even when they argue or bicker. Taek changed my interest in male leads - his kind is what I look for now in the dramas I watch. It’s rare I know, and that makes him my most favourite ☺️

I sadly dropped Boyfriend, but I hope to see him again on his next project - and that he does one again this year.

He is so stinkin adorable.

Don't forget his adorable turn as a househelper in Hyori's Homestay last winter. He cracked me up and was just generally adorable!

ah, i remember you, my very first kdrama....... quite nostalgic, thinking back to that viewing experience. needless to say, as a result park bo gum has a special place in my heart :') it's still a little strange to think about how famous he is these days since i dropped moonlight drawn by clouds somewhere around the mid way mark and kind of missed out on the craze

He's just like a ray of sunshine, like someone you see in the morning that makes you feel like your day is better somehow. IRY introduced me to this gem of an actor (everyone loves an adorable psychopath), but he wowed me with Taek on Reply88 and I was team taek all the way so the ending didn't bother me (sorry not sorry), he then graced the screen again in moonlight and I just couldn't look away. I'd have loved boyfriend with another actress (no offense to shk, bcoz I know she's good but since I know of pbg and sjk relationship it's just weird, plz don't hate me).
I hope to visit Korea drama sets one day(maybe I'll run into him, there is no harm in dreaming).

Park Bo Gum is my ICING on the cake of all Kdrama actors. He's so talented and well rounded. So much respect for this young actor.

Ah our walking talking WARM HUG! The generator of sunshine and electricity and everything sweet and nice! I love him to the level where my ovaries want to protect him!

One of my favourite dramas EVER is I remember you and PBG there was just brilliant. Maybe it's because I tend to like melos more, but sometimes it feels like there are lots who can do the sweet role, but to play that character, wow, I was blown away. Mind you, I loved all the characters there and this is the drama I recommend to everyone, but PBG just draws you in. And remembering his....
*Spoiler*

"Why did you not recognise me" just breaks my heart Everytime.
By reading this I realise that first, I can't write good comments and two I really admire his acting so much. I had to write something. 😅

His latest drama didn’t make me excited to watch it and probably because of her partner didn’t match him... sorry I know I’m judgmental for this.. I just can’t compare his past leading ladies because their young and cuties..🤭

I love PBG's smiles in Boyfriend, but every time when his expressions turned dark I feel much more engaged with his character.

As fun as live watching the fluffy Moonlight might have been, I actually don't think as a drama it would stand the test of time as well as I Remember You.

I cannot wait for Bogummy to do a good revenge melo like Money Flower!

I first noticed him in IRY and my initial impression was that he’d be another generic pretty boy. Then his acting blew me away. I love his micro expressions and his smile is like sunshine.

I remember You is still my fave of his work so far, i like his characters better when they have an edge to 'em

his smile is definitely lovely and sweet but, i might be the minority here, i find his constant big smile slightly, freaky? lol. idk it makes me feel like sometimes he tries too hard to be perfect.. which i kinda get considering his profession but still, i like him best when he's slightly less perfect and more.. human-like xD

Anyone watch his episode of 2 Days 1 Night? It was my gateway to that show, and pure gold! ❤️

And this is me in full fangirl phase, but I got to see him live and he is just a warm ray of sunshine!

"Who said he's a human sleeping pill? He's a human stimulant" - Cha Soo-hyun, 2018... :))

Looks like YG's loss is dramaworld's gain. Yang Hyun Suk is said to have passed PBG during auditions. (Though I probably can't forgive YG more for passing on Honey Lee.) I wonder how Bogummy would've been as an idol.

I also liked him a lot with Red Velvet's Irene when they were hosting Music Bank together. They really had great chemistry and seemed to have worked well together.

I can simply say, I am falling for him 😍😍😍

Bobaby is so dang cute, his leading lady is stunning, the whole production is beautiful (and Cuba!) but...why does it always seem like an indulgent aunt is taking out her nephew? When they get down to the romance stuff, it just feels like they are trying too hard to convince us this is HOT...and it's actually rather tepid. Also, I can see the acting, if you know what I mean.

But, oh, my word, is he adorable!

Btw, on a completely unrelated topic...every time Kdramas depict Westerners it always seems so stilted and unbelievable. Americans, Europeans (maybe other Asians, too?) and now Cubans. The scene BoBaby has with the Cuban hotel clerk? No, no, no...they should have asked the actor (if he was one?) to just say what he would normally say...the dialogue there was just so off.

Really enjoyed Coin Locker Girl -- one of my fave Korean films to date!

You bet @marina. He is a happy soul and have an infectious personality in the most positive way. His last short clip with HyeKyo and the PD was just so hilarious because he was dancing and making some antics around the people while the PD is instructing . He is just so natural. Even Hyori's Bed & Breakfast proved his being so positive, hardworking and the loving personality. There are just so many reasons to love him. Even his fan meets with thousands of people attending, he did not even stop shaking their hands because he wanted the fans to feel that he felt grateful towards them. He portrays his roles amazingly. Facial expressions only will melt your little heart. He is always humble in every project that he is doing, saying he is not so confident but you cant see it in his acting. He is just so versatile in acting. I hope he conquers movies this future years because he deserves being on the big screen.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED THIS ACTOR SPOTLIGHT, HE'S MY FAVORITE ACTOR FOR GOODNESS SAKE! Ok, off to read.
