Surprisingly, he became the center of attention online due to his resemblance to the previous prince of Korea, Prince Yi U.

According to a source, Yi U is dubbed as the "last prince" of the Joseon Dynasty. He was born in 1912, two years after the annexation of Korea from Japanese rule.

The late prince was popular for his devotion to his Korean heritage despite pressure in his position to bow to the foreign nation.

Despite his loyalty to his ancestors, Yi U was still forced to serve in the Japanese military in the early 1930s. During World War II, he was stationed in Hiroshima when the first atomic bomb was dropped by the US in 1945.

Unfortunately, he died during the attack due to injuries caused by the radiation.
