Sooyoung, Jung Kyung Ho

This might get a little confusing.  Jung Kyung Ho, but not the actor who is dating Girls' Generation's Sooyoung, appeared on MBC's 'Radio Star' on September 16 and relayed the troubles he went through because of a case of mistaken identity.


Kim Gu Ra first said, "We were told Jung Kyung Ho was coming out, so we first thought that Girls' Generation Sooyoung's boyfriend, Jung Kyung Ho, was coming out.  The report even went out as that Jung Kyung Ho.  They said it was another Jung Kyung Ho, so then we thought it was the basketball player Jung Kyung Ho."

Jung Kyung Ho then relayed the indignities he had suffered from having the same name. He said, "When they put up my signature in a restaurant after asking for it, I'm told [later] that their customers asked if it was the good-looking Jung Kyung Ho, so now, when I sign, I write that I'm the old Jung Kyung Ho."


He also revealed he got a lot of calls for casting, revealing he would get 5 to 6 calls a day because of mistaken identity.  He then revealed he considered changing his name, but this was desperately opposed by Park Yong Woo and Choi Kang Hee.
