(Video) South Korean Actor Won Bin Ends 15-Year Hiatus With A Surprise Ad

It's not always that we see an actor as loved as him, with his popularity soaring even with his hiatus dating almost 15 years. It's been a minute since Korean entertainment has been graced by its most well-loved actor on screen, and his return is too short-lived! Renowned South Korean actor Won Bin (원빈) surprised fans when he made an appearance in a new commercial for Ajung Networks, a lifestyle service platform. The 49-second ad showcases the actor's charm, even after 15 years of hiatus, which got netizens in a frenzy. The 47-year-old actor reportedly agreed to the promotional shoot as he is fond of the services provided by the company. An Ajung Networks representative commented, 'Actor Won Bin deeply connected with the brand's vision and accepted the endorsement offer. Through this campaign, we aim to drive the value of 'quality of life' together'. Netizens were, of course, excited to see the on-hiatus actor again on screens, with fans showing support over his short appearance in the commercial. YouTube user @/_WooHyun comments, 'Even AI can't make something like this. The real face of God'. Newer fans who had gained interest over talks of Won Bin's visual appeal were also stunned by his looks, with user @/kdk_dy commenting, 'I understand why people talk about Won Bin. I never thought he was handsome, but he's amazing'. Won Bin's last appearance in the limelight was his role in 'The Man From Nowhere' in 2010 starring himself and Kim Saeron.
