Heartwarming stories about singer-actor Park Ji Hoon, a former member of the project group Wanna One, are gaining widespread attention online.
On March 17, a dermatologist shared a personal anecdote about Park Ji Hoon on social media, highlighting the star’s thoughtful character. The doctor wrote, “Looking back, he is now a 10-million-viewer actor. Park Ji Hoon visited us just days before his film’s release, and about a month later, he returned after becoming a ‘10-million actor.’”
The term “10-million actor” refers to performers whose films surpass 10 million admissions at the box office, which is a major milestone in South Korea. The doctor continued, “A few months ago, due to internal circumstances at our clinic, treatment costs rose more than expected, and the managers were caught off guard.” He added, “After learning about this later, Park Ji Hoon personally paid not only for his own treatment but also covered all of his managers’ medical expenses.”
He also noted, “Since then, he has continued to visit the clinic with his managers whenever he has time. Having seen many cases where relationships between celebrities and their managers are not always positive, I found his kindness truly heartwarming.”
The story quickly spread across online communities, drawing praise from netizens. Comments included, “He even takes care of his staff’s medical bills like a true king,” and “No wonder he became a 10-million actor.”
Meanwhile, Park Ji Hoon’s latest film, 'The King's Warden,' continues its box office success, surpassing 13.6 million cumulative viewers.
