He&#8217;s now ended up bumping into viewers at the local gym, and people are now convinced he just got a bad edit.<\/p>\n<p>A viewer shared a photo of him posing with Samuel Lee, and gave his take on what his personality was like. They wrote: &#8220;My boyfriend bumped into Sung-hyun at the gym. To be honest, I wasn&#8217;t a big fan of his on the show, but he&#8217;s actually better-looking in person!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He seems like a really nice guy, too. After taking a photo, he even approached my boyfriend to ask how he knew him&#8230; And then he asked if people are praising or hating him. I really can&#8217;t handle this!!&#8221; they added, and people are equally shook over how different he looks.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:500px\" ><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Singlesinferno2\/comments\/1r002i0\/someone_met_sunghun_at_a_gym\/\">Someone met Sunghun at a gym<\/a><br \/> by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/bsauzg\/\">u\/bsauzg<\/a> in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Singlesinferno2\/\">Singlesinferno2<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the hair that&#8217;s throwing everyone off, as it looks totally different on season five.
