A Japanese star Leiya Seguchi, belonging to the group FANTASTICS from EXILE TRIBE, has become a viral sensation among Korean netizens for his resemblance to BTS‘s Jungkook…

A theqoo post has since garnered over 64K views, with hundreds of comments debating which “faces” they see in Seguchi’s.

…as well as comedian Yoo Se Yoon and actor Shin Ha Kyun.
