I've always been curious, what is the life of a "outdated" top male star?
I happened to brush up on the vlog of the solitary life of the "Asian Prince" Jang Keun Suk, and this question was answered.
It's completely different from the imaginary appearance of "eating, drinking, and having fun every day, and the house is full of luxuries"-
Jang Keun Suk's lifestyle is quite old-school and down-to-earth.
To what extent is it grounded?
If I didn't look at the title and the face, I almost forgot that he was a star.
When other celebrities shoot vlogs living alone, they usually clean up their homes and try to create a good atmosphere.
Jang Geun Suk is no.
In order to let everyone see his real life state, he did not do any cleaning before filming.
"I'm not going to hide anything."
He really didn't lie, because he didn't even confiscate the clothes that were "dried" on the ground.
The refrigerator display link is also a big overturn.
He prides himself on being a fond of cooking, and his fridge is full.
As a result, when I picked up an ingredient casually, it was so "unsightly" that I even had to code the camera.
He turned his head to the beverage counter next door, trying to save a little face, only to find that "this bottle of milk has expired in 2022".
Suddenly, the silence of the brother was deafening, and the laughter of the PD resounded throughout the audience......
Netizen: Wow, except that the house is better than mine, his solitary life is no different from mine.
The living area is not good, so let's have some fashion.
Let's take a look at Jang Keun Suk's "The First Public Personal Wardrobe".
Before entering the door, Jang Geun Suk said worriedly, "I don't have many clothes."
Well, not much, just a room.
But after reading it patiently, I felt that he should not be showing off.
He really doesn't like to shop, and most of these clothes were bought 5 or even 10 years ago.
For example, the T-shirt on his body with a loose collar and unstable even the microphone has been worn for 5 years.
Although there are a lot of them, there don't seem to be many that can be seen and seen......
Pick up a T-shirt from the shelf, it's all war-damaged version.
finally took out a brand-name bag, but inexplicably shot a shabby feeling.
Who knows this is LV without looking closely......
In winter, the coat area looks like Dongdaemun clothing market, and it is a little too simple to look like a star.
(Didn't say Dongdaemun was bad!) ）
Blessed are the friends who are not confident in aesthetics.
In fact, even Jang Keun Suk will doubt his own aesthetics:
"How do I wear this kind of clothing?"
The funniest thing is that he leads the filming crew to see his safe.
Xiao IN also wondered, a big star casually exposed the safe, not very good?
After reading it, I found that I was overthinking.
Not only did the safe have no code, but it also contained no valuables, just a vaccination certificate and an unknown necklace.
Is this really a solo vlog and not some funny variety show??
Of course, laughing and laughing, Xiao IN still found some rare traits in celebrities from his videos.
Like, old-school.
In the era of electronic reading, most people want to understand news and information, basically through mobile phones.
Jang Keun Suk still maintains the habit of reading the newspaper.
"Everyone is going digital now, but I like some of the old stuff," he said. ”
He was sincere enough not to package it, and he didn't try to hide it.
He said that living alone would inevitably lead to loneliness, so he put a small movable TV in the house.
This way, no matter where you eat, you can have a little more excitement.
He prefers to buy beautiful tableware and kitchenware rather than collecting luxury goods.
Although it is not used much, each pot has its own mission, frying eggs, making egg rolls, and boiling noodles......
(This cutlery lover nods hard!)
He will tell the audience, don't indulge in brand-name goods, you are worth much more than them.
The most important thing is that when Jang Keun Suk said these words, he did not make people feel offended.
He wasn't trying to educate anyone, he was able to say these things because he felt so from the bottom of his heart after he had it.
It's hard not to be struck by this sobriety and empathy.
As long as you look back at Jang Keun Suk's life experience, you can understand where this frankness and sincerity come from.
Because his family went bankrupt, he made his debut as a child star at the age of 7.
While his peers were enjoying their childhood, he gradually took over the burden of providing for his family.
Because of his excellent appearance, Jang Keun Suk's star journey is quite smooth.
At the age of 19, he starred in "Huang Zhenyi", the aristocratic son Kim Eun-ho, whose pure and agile appearance amazed countless audiences.
But if you want to say that when the whole people exploded, it was still the period of beautiful men.
In the classic Korean drama "It Turned Out to Be a Beautiful Man", he played the genius composer Hwang Tae-kyung.
On the surface, he is talented and good-looking, but in fact, he is sensitive and fragile, and he is sick.
Judging from it now, this character is really not pleasing, and the all-inclusive eyeliner makeup is a bit difficult to evaluate.
But...... I can't stand him handsome!
At that time, as long as you went online, you could get his beautiful photos on major portals.
The humanoid standing sign at the entrance of McDonald's is him, and his face is printed on the bookstore's best-selling poster.
He went to the happy base camp, and his Weibo fans soared by one million overnight.
But I don't know when Jang Keun Suk seems to have gradually "disappeared" from the public's sight.
He filmed several dramas and studied his acting skills with all his heart, but they were all tepid.
Later, we only saw the news of his "fat noodles and steamed buns".
And the reason is actually very simple, he is sick.
As early as 2011, Jang Keun Suk was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
Because he took over the responsibility of supporting his family early, he has always lived a very tight life and has been in a high-pressure state all year round.
Edema is a side effect of taking medicine.
In the past few years, he has quietly lost weight, and his life seems to be back on track-
In his career, he does not pursue popularity, buries himself in making music, and occasionally makes personal vlogs.
I learned to find fun in living alone, eating every meal, partying with friends, going out camping, and managing my life to the fullest.
The face is no longer there, and I don't feel sorry.
I remembered that in Jang Geun Suk's vlog, there was a point that touched me very much.
He said that the most valuable thing in the house was the slippers he wore when he was six years old.
Because every time I see those shoes, it's like seeing my past self.
He was proud that this child did not go down the wrong path and became an upright adult.
I always believe that only those who maintain the heart of a child will have such an understanding.
Along the way, he has been famous, discouraged, and depressed, but in the end, he still lived up to himself and became an upright adult.
Isn't this another kind of fulfillment?
I really hope that such a person can be happy forever.
