The recent re-release of 'Pokemon Bread', which was very popular in the 2000s, is creating a huge craze.

In particular, collecting the 'sticky seals' (stickers that can be put on and taken off) in 'Pokemon Bread' has become a trend, and interest in Pokemon characters has risen accordingly.

Thanks to this popularity, stars resembling Pokémon are also being re-emerged.

Let's meet the stars who are attracting attention because they have the same appearance as the cute Pokemon.

Kim Gu Ra  - Blue

'Blue', with a cute and threatening expression, resembles Kim Gu Ra.

The slightly raised eyes, closed mouth, and plump cheeks are particularly similar, causing laughter from fans.

The character Blue is popular because he is actually quite timid, unlike his mean face.

Jeong Jun Ha - Todogas

Jeong Jun Ha from the so-called 'Bomb Head' days resembles 'Todo Gas'.

The tired expression that is the trademark of Todogas is almost similar to the expression shown by Jeong Jun Ha in MBC's 'Infinite Challenge' and 'High Kick without hesitation'.

Even their round faces are identical, boasting great similarity.

Yang Se Hyung- Kkebi Charm

Yang Se Hyung, who is loved for his cute appearance and sensible talk, looks similar to 'Kaebi Charm'.

The slightly protruding mouth, slender eyes, and small height are especially the same.

Kaebi Cham is one of the characters that is receiving a lot of support by diligently moving its small wings to protect its territory.

Hong Seok Cheon - Digda

'Digda', with its brown skin and cute expression, boasts a high synchronization rate with Hong Seok Cheon.

Thanks to Hong Seok Cheon's smooth skin, there are many sayings that he especially resembles him.

Digda is a Mole-type Pokémon, and it is an indispensable and precious existence in the Pokémon world by properly cultivating the ground.

Jung Hyung Don- Sleep

The Pokemon 'Sleep', which has the concept of living while eating dreams, reminds me of Jung Hyung Don.

Sleep, with a chubby body and smiling eyes, boasts a high synchro rate with Jung Hyung-don.

Sleep is a character with a warm heart that shows the dream he ate the most when he became close.

Kim Woo Bin - Charizard

Kim Woo Bin, who is scheduled to return with his real-life lover Shin Min Ah for tvN's 'Our Blues', is famous for his resemblance to 'Charizard'.

Charizard is the final evolution of 'Pyree' and boasts a large height and solid body shape.

Boasting charming eyes and overwhelming charisma, Charizard has a visual comparable to Kim Woo Bin.

Suga - Ufa

BTS member Suga is a 'right-wing' resemblance that even the eldest brother Jin acknowledged.

Ufa is an attractive Pokémon with cute features and a gentle personality.

The expression on the right side when surprised or smiling is especially the same as that of Suga, making it famous among fans.

Singer Steve Yoo (Yoo Seung Jun), who has been banned from entering South Korea for over two decades, continues to express his love for the country and his desire to return.

On March 21, Yoo Seung Jun posted a video on his personal account along with a cryptic caption, saying, “When one door closes, another opens. When one door opens, another closes.”

He continued, “Just because a door has opened doesn’t mean I should leave, and just because one is closed doesn’t mean I shouldn’t try to open it. I am simply walking the path my father told me to take. Whether people acknowledge it or not no longer matters to me.”

His hashtags also caught attention, as he included “I love you,” “Bless you,” “South Korea,” “Loved ones,” “Everything will be okay,” and “Korea.” Fans couldn’t help but wonder if he was once again hinting at his hope to return.

Just a few days earlier, on March 18, Yoo Seung Jun had also posted a nostalgic message about his time in South Korea.

He wrote, “December 7, 1989—13 years old (1st year of middle school). The school I attended until the day before I immigrated to the U.S. in Songpa-gu, Oju Middle School, is still the same.”

Along with his message, he shared a video of the school's walls and playground, revealing, “One of my fans filmed my middle school, which I attended until I left for the U.S., and sent me the video.”

The clip also showed scenes of his elementary school, making fans reminisce about his past in Korea.

Yoo Seung Jun was one of the most popular artists in South Korea during the 1990s, but his career took a sharp turn in 2002 when he unexpectedly left for the U.S., renounced his Korean citizenship, and became a U.S. citizen.

This led to widespread backlash, as many saw it as an attempt to evade mandatory military service. As a result, the South Korean government banned him from entering the country.

Since then, he has repeatedly taken legal action in hopes of lifting the ban. Now, with his continued efforts and heartfelt messages about Korea, many are wondering—will he finally be allowed back after 23 years?
