Riding the global success of the Netflix original series If Wishes Could Kill, rising actor Baek Seon-ho — already dubbed the most anticipated post-enlistment comeback — is going viral after a shocking lookalike comparison with CORTIS member Gunho.
Online communities and social media are flooded with side-by-side photos of Baek Seon-ho and Gunho. Netizens claim their sharp features and overall vibe are so alike that they could pass for real brothers.
Here’s the twist: both share a BigHit Music connection. Born in 2003, Baek Seon-ho once trained under BigHit Music before pivoting to acting and debuting in 2023 through the drama Between Him and Her. Meanwhile, Gunho, born in 2009, debuted last August as the youngest member of BigHit Music’s rookie group CORTIS and is skyrocketing as a “5th-gen visual genius.”
As their unexpected link and lookalike visuals gained traction, fans reacted, saying, “So this is the signature BigHit taste,” “Good-looking people give off a similar aura,” and “They look alike, but also not.”
Baek Seon-ho is currently serving in the military and is set to be discharged in June 2027, with expectations building for his next project.
