“I wanted to be genuine,” says actor Son Suk Ku, revealing his unexpected decision to bare it all on screen.
Son Suk Ku, a talented and handsome actor, recently made headlines when he revealed the surprising reason behind his decision to show his “naked butt” in a scene from the film “Nothing Serious” instead of using a stunt double.
During a recent appearance on a variety show, Son Suk Ku shared that in a scene where he had to show his naked butt, he chose to do it himself. “The production team said it was only going to show the back, but if I didn’t feel comfortable with it, I could request a double. I said I’d do it, though,” he explained.
This revelation took netizens by surprise, as it’s not uncommon for actors to use doubles for such scenes. When asked if he made this decision because he was confident about his butt, Son Suk Ku responded, “Well, no. It wasn’t about confidence” .
Son Suk Ku, who has been named the top celebrity ideal for gay men in the second half of 2023, explained that his decision was about being genuine. “What if… say, I use a double, and then I go viral among gay communities? Then that’s not me,” he said. He added, “It would not be something I earned for myself. With what I have” .
After Shin Dong Yeop pointed out that there could be an issue later on, Son Suk Ku expressed that he didn’t want to let anyone down, even if his butt might not be as good as a stunt double’s. “Sure, my butt might not be as amazing as a double’s, but it’d be mine. I’m going to try my best to stay relevant with what I got,” he stated.
As always, Son Suk Ku continues to strive to be the most honest version of himself for his fans. His genuine approach to his craft and his commitment to authenticity, both on and off the screen, is truly commendable.
