Kwon Oh Joong is grabbing attention with a hilariously low milestone celebration on social media.
The actor famous for K-Dramas like Gourmet and Freedom Fighter and movies To Catch a Virgin Ghost and Mr. Kim vs. Mr. Kim vs. Mr. Kim posted on August 8, KST, about hitting just 100 followers on his new social media account.
He shared several photos with the caption:
“I finally passed 100 followers. Thank you! Excited for today too.”
Kwon also posted a funny video where he dances joyfully to mark the occasion, tagging it with #ActYourAge and drawing laughs from fans.
Fans quickly jumped in, sharing screenshots of themselves following him, boosting his follower count.
Before this, Kwon had mainly shared updates through his wife’s social media.
He created his personal account only recently to connect directly with fans.
Kwon stepped back from showbiz in 2020 to care for his son, who has a rare development disorder.
He explained his son requires heavy care and frequent hospital visits.
“My son needed assistance with many tasks, and I accompanied him to the hospital frequently.”
The actor also managed household chores during this period.
COVID-19 made things tougher on his family.
Kwon quit drinking and cut off certain friends to focus completely on family.
Married since 1996, his son’s disorder has only 15 known cases worldwide, with his son being the only diagnosed case in South Korea.
Now, Kwon is preparing for a comeback.
He recently worked as a voice actor in King of Kings, which premiered last month.
Fans are watching closely as Kwon navigates his return to the spotlight after years away.
