The few fleeting face-to-face encounters I had with Park Sihoo-ssi, I see the fashionable and polite star. There was a certain respectful distance in those meetings. No hint of the “mischievous me” in him that I have heard about and sometimes get glimpses of in his videos or photos.
Maybe it is because it takes two hands to clap. I always think that everything starts with “me”. How I approach things and people, my action will lead to like reaction from the other party. The introvert in me makes me shy and tongue tied with unfamiliar people. And Park Sihoo-ssi is virtually a stranger. Yes, with the verbiage I spill about him every day, it is hard to believe that he is still very much a stranger to me and I can be tongue tied! I guess the few times I met him, I must have come across rather uptight and formal, covering up for my nervousness! And his like reaction was to be formal back.
Deep down, there is actually a mischievous me lurking, just like there is a mischievous him!
And I absolutely love that mischievous him on the few occasions when he surfaced!
I don’t know about you but whenever I attended his events in the past, I always felt very excited, brimming with indescribable joy. Seeing him on stage, you get bowled over by his surreal gorgeousness. Occasionally, you catch just that twinkle of mischief and wonder, what was brewing in his mind as he faced his fans in the audience.
During his 2014 birthday party in Seoul, while taking a group photo, he had a shoe stepping “fight” with an older Japanese fan who was wearing squeaky clean, white shoes. You know what clean, white shoes call out to right? “Step me!” So it was hilarious to see this man who appeared larger than life, reduce himself to such childish behaviour 🙂
Then on his 38th birthday this year, we met with a big headed replica doll of Park Sihoo-ssi at his ancestor home. Who would have thought that it would be him in that doll costume? That mischievous me in him was at work, he must have felt the compelling urge to have some fun with his fans, incognito! Mischievous boy!
And of course, in his drama and movies, we saw countless glimpses of that mischievous look, each one equally charming and endearing!
I wonder, what mischief is he up to now? Do tell, Park Sihoo-ssi!
鼓里卖什么药?
与施厚君见过几次面,都是几秒钟时间,看到的是个时尚,彬彬有礼的明星,有一定敬而远之。所听说过和有时在他的视频或照片所看到的“调皮的我”一面,没有显示过。
也许是每个事情都有双面,所谓的拍掌需要两只手。一切都是由“我”开始。我是如何看待人和事物,我的行动会导致对方如何反应。内向的我对不熟悉的人会感到非常害羞,目瞪口呆。对我而言,施厚君实际上是个陌生人。虽然每天在网站写着许多关于他的文章,但他仍然是非常陌生。可以每天写出好多垃圾的我,也可以目瞪口呆!很难相信吧?我猜几次见到施厚君,我一定是显得相当正式去覆盖我的紧张!他的反应也是一样的正式。
在内心深处,其实潜伏着淘气的我,就像调皮的他!
几次看过调皮的他,特别喜欢他这一面!
每当参加他的活动,总是觉得很兴奋,充满了无可形容的喜悦。看那梦幻般的他在舞台上,超级的华丽,非常有魅力。偶尔也可以看到一刹那调皮的眼神,就不知到看着舞台下的粉丝时,他那小脑带在想些什么,鼓里卖什么药。
在首尔举行的2014年生日派对,合影时,他和一位穿着干干净净白鞋子的日本妈妈粉,斗着“踩鞋”。知道干净的白鞋会招惹什么反应吧? “踩我!”因此,我们目睹这位帅哥展示了他幼稚的一面 🙂
然后今年在他的38岁生日,我们在施厚君的祖籍碰到了一位施厚君大头娃娃。谁会想到是他本人套上了娃娃服装呢?调皮的他一定想恶作剧,怎么有趣的与粉丝们互动,但不让她们知道!调皮的孩子!
当然,在他的电视剧和电影里,我们看到他无数的调皮样子,每一个都让人着迷,怜爱!
不知道,现在他鼓里在想着玩什么恶作剧?快告诉我们吧,施厚君!

As I have said several times before : in my mind I imagine my very 1st meeting him face to face the ONE thing I feel strongly I will do is to sniff him head to toe and inside out upside down like how my dog meeting anyone for the 1st time. There have been many descriptions of him by the many sources. However til now I have yet to hear from any source how does Park Sihoo smell like? Today’s technology we get to see very clearly every visual about a person, about any yummy food..yet when it comes to smell no technology has delivered it. So I must remind myself the one or 2 seconds time allowed when the opportunity comes I must focus on sniffing him out
I would love to be there when you do the sniff test 🙂
The scenario might be like this: alarm triggered everyone shocked next security came grab my both arms and my legs off ground and got escorted out of venue 😊
Me too Nance – love to see PSH’s reaction when this chance falls on Chai Hua. Or will our superstar with mischievous eyes, face and look be able to outwit the potential sniffer in our chat group? I don’t know — she has learned from Bob all these close to 15 years!!😁😁
I really hope PSH is checking this page and happened to read this so that he ís prepared there will come the day his fans are no longer interested of just handshake or a hug, fans like me want a sniff. For that I hope he would pre empt security guard carting me off premise. 🙂 Please Park Sihoo you would know that one of 2 second of meeting you face to face to some of us far away fans is more than winning the top lottery, so please make my wish come true, let me sniff sniff okay (wink wink — my keyboard does not have the wink picture)
Chai Hua Loke 😉 Here you go..wink on your behalf 😉 😉
Handsome boy’s move, naughty baby! Each person, personality, multi-faceted display! Feel the closeness, the mask is removed, the most true state of! Fans to accompany, precious emotions, it is self-evident, naturally! In front of the elders, is always a big boy, the adult world, innocence is feeling good! Between people, strange, familiar, no definition, get along not tired, feel love, on the line!
Definitely a naughty boy 🙂
His natural mischievous twinkle in his eyes make him very adorable – reason why one viewing of any of his drama series and movies us never sufficient to capture the very essence of his works of art. That’s why over the years his shows have an enduring quality about them – his global fans never get tired of watching again and again and able to memorise what expressions and antics he has come up with scene by scene episode by episode. He is simply a wonderful Korean actor to follow and admire.
Full of expression, with much charm, charismatic, with a smile that does not go unnoticed, known to cause tears rainfall or laughter, he manages to do the show and arouse emotions regardless of the role that it plays impeccably in roles dynamic a mimicry that transmits without the need to tell his reply, humorous and vitality, always created engaging characters. I hope that the public will not remain indifferent to his work because few actors manage to give you the creeps at the same time make you love them, as does Park Si Hoo.
Agree totally agree Anita. You said it exactly right! I really got the creeps watching him when he was in fury in TPM and when he was sneering with sinister contempt in his eyes in COM. But the creeps are soon overcome when his chameleon like acting talent turns on the charm to make his audience and fans fall in love with him once again!
Dorothy Ooi I’m glad we share the same ideas in what it regards beloved actor PSH.
Who can say that PSH is not a successful , respected, talented and multi-faced :actor , singer, dancer, enertainer, songwriter. As a multifaceted , versatile actor, PSH , has played varied roles and has enthralled his audience also with his unique “mischievous me” face. Playing a mischievous person,he likes to have fun by playing harmless on other people, not with the intention of causing trouble, otherwise he becomes malicious. Playing in a naughty or teasing way , he enchants his audience. Having a mischievous smile , he looks cute or innocent, or is either with a seducing smile, or a cunning smile, or a sexual smile. All of them are unique for PSH’s mischievous face. Because he is always glamorous or playful, when he reveals his “mischievous me” ,on his face.There are many scenes in his dramas where I enjoyed immensely his mischievous eyes, or face , or smiles, that are at a level incomparable to other actors’ interpretation. Just these days rewatching “CDDA” I laughed and enjoyed very much his “mischievous me” face interpreting Jean Thiery Cha. PSH is a matchless and peerless actor, no doubt!
Clap clap clap big applause Stefania Lupu!!Simply love your “matchless” and “peerless” adjectives! Bravo!. Precisely the very reasons you just said his interpretation is accurate to the millimetre measurement it will be our greatest loss if we pass by this earth lifetime without stopping to appreciate PSH ‘s works.
I second what Chai Hua Loke said! You were spot on!
You are right Chai Hua, that it would be the greatest loss for those who haven’t wached PSH’s dramas and movies, yet, and for all of us, who enjoy his excellent acting,, not to praise his gorgeous talent.
Yes matchless and peerless indeed. For some of us it’s discovering him and his dramas/ movies of late only. But once you get started you will be enchanted and mesmerised forever. There’s no turning back and you simply wonder why we took so long to discover this extremely talented actor, entertainer. This is a consistent testimony by so many who never did want to get addicted by k dramas in the first place but finally succumbed to the charms of this one and only PSH! Irreplaceable treasure and gem!
Indeed very few actors can give you the creep yet make you love them at the same time. Our PSH is rare talent.
