Jo Jung-suk Lookalike YouTuber Finally Reveals His Face, Ends Long-Running Mystery Behind Viral AI Covers

The man behind the mysterious YouTube channel Cheonggyesan Daengi Records has finally shown his face to the public, sparking a mix of surprise, amusement, and curiosity.

On April 20, the YouTuber went live with a broadcast titled “Please Listen to My Concerns”, during which he revealed his identity and the reason behind his decision to finally appear on camera.

“Until now, I’ve been operating anonymously. I’ve been thinking a lot about whether I should continue that way. I thought maybe if I showed my face and expressions, I could connect more closely with viewers. But I’m also worried people might be disappointed.”

Greeting viewers warmly with “Hello, I’m Daengi’s dad. This is what I look like,” the YouTuber embraced the moment with humor. He referenced comparisons to beloved actor Jo Jung-suk, saying, “I do hear that a lot. If you look closely, I have a mole here,” before hilariously parodying a scene from Temptation of Wife.

He then joked, “But please don’t say I look like Jo Jung-suk. His fans will scold me!” eliciting laughter from fans tuning in.

Cheonggyesan Daeng-i Records initially drew attention by uploading music covers under the title “Jo Jung-suk AI Cover,” but consistently denied any affiliation with the actor. However, the truth came to light in Netflix’s variety series Rookie Singer Jo Jung-suk, where it was revealed that comedian Moon Sang-hoon played a marketing executive for the channel, and the AI cover concept was part of a promotional campaign.

The channel gained wider fame after IU shared a cover of her song Love Wins All performed by “AI Jo Jung-suk” on her social media story, drawing attention from fans and viewers across the internet.

Now, with the mystery unraveled and the man behind the viral music channel revealed, Cheonggyesan Daeng-i Records has entered a new chapter, one filled with more personal connection, humor, and music.
