In a delightful turn of events, popular Korean actor Son Suk-ku finally met his ideal type, comedian Jang Do-yeon, and sparks flew during their appearance on YouTube channel “Theo’s” corner “Salon Drip.” The much-anticipated video, uploaded on March 12th, 2024, has already garnered over 770,000 views and has netizens buzzing with excitement about their undeniable chemistry.
The heartwarming video began with Son Suk-ku playfully addressing Jang Do-yeon as “Senior Jang,” revealing that she has been his ideal type for quite some time. When Do-yeon jokingly questioned if his ideal type had changed, Son Suk-ku remained smitten, replying that he still admires women who are “bright and fun.” Their playful banter continued throughout the video, with Do-yeon humorously suggesting alternative charming qualities and Son Suk-ku’s infectious laughter filling the air.
Son Suk-ku, a known admirer of comedy, expressed his respect for Do-yeon’s comedic talent, and she playfully teased him to see if her humor truly resonated with him. Their conversation then took a lighthearted turn when Son Suk-ku revealed his mother’s belief in fortune-telling and the supposed lack of “gold” in his fortune. Do-yeon, ever the quick wit, responded by offering to get “five gold teeth” – two for herself and three for Son Suk-ku– to create the perfect compatibility.
As the conversation flowed, the duo discovered a shared generational connection. Discovering Do-yeon’s birth year, Son Suk-ku fondly reminisced about popular Korean shows from their childhood, creating a warm and nostalgic atmosphere.

He also shared his passion for screenwriting, mentioning a script he’s been working on in his spare time, drawing inspiration from his experiences as an immigrant.
The heartwarming connection continued as they reminisced about classic Korean dramas and even reenacted famous lines from “Hourglass,” “The Heirs,” and “The Eraser in My Head,” leaving viewers swooning over their undeniable chemistry.
Just before the segment ended, Son Suk-ku’s sweet remark, “Time shouldn’t pass too quickly,” left viewers wanting more. Their playful game of Halli Galli added another layer of amusement, especially when Do-yeon’s remaining cards hinted at “three daughters,” prompting Son Suk-ku to jokingly choose “two daughters.” The suggestive comment sent fans into a frenzy, further solidifying their desire to see a blossoming romance.
Son Suk-ku’s hope to return to “Salon Drip” for another “special meeting” has left netizens eagerly waiting for a sequel.
