Actor Kim Nam-gil turned heads with his dramatically changed appearance at the LG Twins’ training facility on the 13th. Sporting long, unkempt hair, a thick beard, and a noticeably fuller face, he drew immediate attention from team staff and players.
Unconventional Entrance Steals the Show
A video uploaded to the team’s channel, titled ‘The Hottest Team Momentum Imaginable,’ captured the moment. LG Twins manager Kim Seong-geun and others expressed surprise at Kim’s rugged transformation. The manager remarked coolly, ‘The beast has arrived.’
Kim Nam-gil explained his bold new style stemmed from concerns over AI-generated deepfakes. He stated, ‘My biggest fear about AI became reality. It made me look too handsome. I really struggled. Even if reborn, people won’t believe I’m struggling because I look good, so I gained even more weight.’
Playful Exchange with Manager
When manager Kim Seong-geun called the look ‘honest,’ Nam-gil replied, ‘That’s why I have no worries at all. Sleep easy.’
His visit highlighted the strong camaraderie between the actor and the team, amid their impressive current form.
