'Jackpot'! Here's Why It's A Good Time to be a Jang Geun Suk Fan


After a rather quiet few years, it's a super good time for fans eager to see Jang Geun Suk back on their TV screens. Besides hosting a music variety show, the 26-year-old is also set to appear in the lead role of Jackpot – his first period drama in almost a decade! It's going to be an exciting few weeks, especially when the baby-faced You're Beautiful star has got all these going on for him…

He's finally on Instagram!

As one of the prettiest faces in the industry, last January was far too late for Jang Geun Suk to get on Instagram. But with killer photos like this, who can stay annoyed at him for long?

He's as hot as ever

With makeup artists, hair stylists and even cosmetic surgeons at their beck and call, celebrities can tend to get carried away with trying out new looks. How many times have our biases come out of hiatus looking completely different from when we last saw them? Thankfully, Jang Geun Suk's signature silky locks, high forehead and million-dollar smile are just as we remember them.

He's fresh out of school


Okay, it's not exactly fresh, but during his mini hiatus, Jang Geun Suk finally graduated from Hanyang University and recently conducted several lectures for the students. We're sure it must have been really hard to pay attention to what he was saying…

He's still a prince, but a less flashy one

After being likened to a prince for years by his fans, Jang Geun Suk's finally going to become one. But don't expect it to be a pretty boy character driving a sports car to a giant mansion – in his first period drama after eight years, Jang Geun Suk will play a forgotten prince forced to live as a commoner. He later challenges his own younger brother (played by Yeo Jin Goo) in the gambling arena as he enters into a race for the throne.
