K-Drama Actor Shocks By Using Phone Blatantly Throughout Press Conference

A K-Drama press conference recently went viral for an unexpected reason when one of the actors spent the entire duration looking at their phone.

During the press conference for upcoming romcom Our Universe, attendees couldn’t help but notice actor Park Yoo Hoo completely locked in on a phone for the entire event. No eye contact with reporters. No interest in microphones. Just full-focus screen time.

Naturally, clips began circulating online with captions joking that the actor was “blatantly using their phone throughout the press conference.”  There’s just one tiny detail people quickly pointed out — Park Yoo Hoo is three years old.

The child actor, who stars in Our Universe alongside leads Bae In Hyuk and Roh Jeong Eui, spent the press conference quietly watching a phone resting on Bae In Hyuk’s lap — likely to keep him calm and entertained during the long, adult-heavy event.

Fans found the situation equal parts hilarious and adorable.

If you’re three years old and forced to sit through a press conference, you’ve definitely earned that phone.
