Yoo Jae Suk recently opened up about how his manager’s excessive kindness made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

On May 10, a new video was released on the Tteun Tteun YouTube channel, featuring Kim So Hyun, Park Bo Gum, Lee Sang Yi, and Yoo Jae Suk.

During the video, Kim So Hyun, born in 1999, surprised everyone with her honest and straightforward answers, showing the typical openness of the MZ generation.

Park Bo Gum described Kim So Hyun as “really honest and down-to-earth,” while Lee Sang Yi added, “She has no pretenses and is very straightforward, just like now.”

Kim So Hyun explained, “The older brothers are very thoughtful and take good care of me. But since I’ve become more independent, I’m more of the ‘I’m fine, it's okay’ type. The brothers try to take care of me, but I just move on quickly,” highlighting the difference in personalities.

Yoo Jae Suk, agreeing with her, shared, “I know what you mean,” as Kim So Hyun explained, “I’m the type to do things on my own, so I’m not used to being taken care of.”

Yoo Jae Suk then shared a personal story, saying, “That's similar to me. I also feel a little uncomfortable with being taken care of. My manager, when he first came from another company, would open doors for me. It was too much, and it felt burdensome.”

Ji Seok Jin joined the conversation, saying, “When I get out of the car, he comes to greet me and opens the door when I get in,” to which Yoo Jae Suk laughed, jokingly asking, “Was he from a big company?” Lee Sang Yi was also surprised, saying, “Isn’t that VIP treatment?”

Yoo Jae Suk’s discomfort with his manager’s kindness left fans laughing and relating to his story of feeling a bit overwhelmed by too much attention.
