On March 2, a new video titled “Eating Out | Dad Who Has Only Eaten Pyeongyang Naengmyeon for 40 Years Picks the No.1 Spot” was uploaded to her YouTube channel “Go Jun Hee GO.” In the clip, the actress visits a famous Pyeongyang naengmyeon restaurant with her father for a rare father-daughter outing.
During the meal, the restaurant owner complimented Go Jun Hee on her beauty. Playfully leaning into the praise, she joked, “You can say it louder.” However, her father quickly cut in with a dose of reality, saying, “Don’t be so conscious of that and just eat. Don’t pretend to be pretty—just eat deliciously. Try eating in a way that makes the food look good.”
Caught off guard, Go Jun Hee protested, asking, “Am I pretending to be pretty while I eat?” Her father’s no-nonsense attitude instantly filled the room with laughter.
The production team then asked him how he feels when people say his daughter is beautiful. After staring at her for a moment, he responded bluntly, “Well… there are many prettier people.” His unexpectedly cool-headed answer once again sparked laughter on set.
Go Jun Hee handled the comment with equal composure, replying, “I admit it. I didn’t become a celebrity because I’m pretty.” Her witty and self-aware response drew praise from viewers for her confidence and grounded personality.
Despite his tough-love approach, Go Jun Hee’s father revealed a softer side. He shared that before his daughter became widely recognized, he didn’t notice much difference in public reactions. But once her popularity grew, he found it amusing when people would whisper, “It’s Go Jun Hee,” as she walked ahead while he and his wife followed behind.
Smiling fondly, he recalled how strangers would turn to look at her, clearly enjoying the experience as a proud parent. Go Jun Hee added that she only recently learned her parents would intentionally walk a little slower behind her to observe how people reacted when they recognized her.
The candid exchange highlighted the actress’s down-to-earth family dynamic, showing that even a public figure like Go Jun Hee is not spared from a parent’s honest evaluation. Fans responded warmly to the clip, praising both her father’s humor and the actress’s refreshingly cool attitude.
