But netizens really seemed to disagree.

Ahn Jung Hwan used to play soccer for the South Korean national team.

He was the second striker on the team. In two FIFA World Cups, he scored three goals, including a golden goal against Italy.

But it wasn't just his skills that made people love him back then. Ahn was also very popular because he looked like a model.

Because of his long hair and well-shaped face, he got a lot of fame, almost as much as A-list actors and idols.

Even when he didn't have a lot of followers on social media, his pictures got so much attention that he ended up modeling for many brands.

As South Korea's first "flower boy" soccer player, it was only a matter of time before Ahn's past popularity was compared to Cho Gue Sung's career path.

Netizens in Korea started talking about whether or not Ahn would be as famous as Cho if he were at his best right now.

Most discussions seemed to come to the conclusion that Ahn's visuals would have made people from all over the world go crazy if he had had the technology we have now.

But the man himself says something different.

Ahn has become a performer and a sports broadcaster after he retired in 2012.

He also has a YouTube channel on which he and other people talk about soccer.

In one of these videos, Ahn and Kim Sung Joo started talking about Cho Gue Sung.

During the conversation, he told Ahn that he thinks Cho is much more attractive than him because Cho has scored more objectives than Ahn.

"If you can play soccer well, you're pretty. He looks better than me now that he has scored two goals." - Ahn Jung Hwan.

Ahn then said, "I was attractive in 2002, and Cho Gue Sung is attractive now." But people on the Internet don't seem to agree with what he says about himself.

Jung Hwan hyung… I know you mean well, but nobody is able to beat you in looks.

When Ahn Jung Hwan was at his best, he had the best looks of any athlete in our country, not just among soccer players.

Ahn Jung Hwan was the best in Asia.

This kind of confidence can only arrive from somebody who knows they are the most handsome person in the world.

How humble of him! Ahn Jung Hwan's looks will always rank among the best in the history of Korean soccer.

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
