Looking back: Girl's Day Hyeri and her viral aegyo on Real Men

August 30, 2018   , ,




It's been 4 years today. I was fairly new to Girl's Day that time and i only read about real men on articles, watched the clips on youtube and check nb translations. I wasn't familiar with the show's concept or watched the first few episodes prior to the female special but basically the cast went to an intense army training. It's hard to watch even though it had some serious and fun moments.

The show was already gaining audience attention when female cast first appeared. One of the cast member had her share of controversy but seems like people enjoy the show bit by bit.

Hyeri also shines before the aegyo shenanigans and she already gained praises for her efforts on the show. I found Hyeri really good on variety shows even before Real Men. Her 'Dream Team' appearance was a classic. I always anticipates Hyericules projects.

The original video got deleted







All of a sudden Hyeri's trending on korean twitter, naver, daum etc.








There were parodies of it like this one:





Hyeri also explained the situation leading up to her famous aegyo moment on Real Men

Hyeri explained that her performance was a spur-of-the-moment action. "I was actually somewhat disappointed," she said. "It was the last day, I hoped [the instructor] would be a bit nicer."



Even after a few days, it's still blowing up

crazy.




Hyeri then snatched a lot of CFs and here's some of them











There's still more stories related to it. I wish i could share more but i'll try my best next time with much better coverage. It's aftermath was well discussed and 2014 was a great time to be alive. Hyeri bagged the Female Newcomer Award at 2014 MBC Entertainment Awards. She got a role on Seonam Girls High School Investigators drama.

The viral aegyo made its appearance on Amazing Saturday episode 2 weeks ago





2014 was a rollercoaster. It was exhausting and eventful. It was imperfect but no one can take away this success from Hyeri and i'm happy for all her success.
