"He needs to defect to South Korea ASAP," This North Korean athlete at the 2022 Winter Olympics catches the attention of South Korean netizens

AKP STAFF

With the winter Olympics that is coming to a close in just a few more days, many netizens' attentions are directed towards the winter sports games as well as the athletes who took part in them this year. 

In particular, Korean netizens have also been following this year's winter games closely counting the medals that South Korea has taken home. However, there is one athlete that is garnering much attention who is not from South Korea. One North Korean short-track skater has become the next hot topic among the Korean online communities after he had impressed South Koreans with his extremely handsome looks.

Athlete Kim Byeol Sung appeared on the news recently, as he appeared as a national athlete for North Korea and has captivated the viewers in the neighboring country. He easily stood out from the crowd of the other North Korean athletes with his large eyes and prominent eyebrows.

Korean netizens quickly swooned over this skater and gathered to an online community to express their thoughts about the North Korean national athlete. Netizens commented, "I clicked on the post thinking how good looking can he be, and wow, he's really good looking," "Wow, he's so good looking," "If you decide to defect from North Korea and come to South Korea, I'll buy you food," "His face doesn't belong in North Korea," "His name is cool too," "We need to unify Korea," "He is really good looking," "Why was he born in North Korea?," "He needs to defect to South Korea ASAP," "He would be so popular here," and "He would be filming commercials if he was South Korean."
