John Park thinks it’s disgusting when men do aegyo, so when can we give him an award?

On MBC‘s “Music And Lyrics“, John Park told Park Jin Hee that men doing aegyo is disgusting.

During this episode, Park Jin Hee requested John Park to show her some of his aegyo to which he responded, “When a woman does aegyo, it looks cute and fresh, but when a man does it, it’s disgusting.” His honest remark had Park Jin Hee cracking up as he adorably expressed his inner emotions about men who act cute.

This is definitely a preference that seems to come with a cultural divide and gender politics, but it does creep me out when I see a guy doing aegyo.

I’m convinced this appeals primarily to teenage girls, right? Because I can’t see what is attractive to women about a guy talking in a baby voice and shit.

  2. I hate aegyo. I learned to tolerate when girls do it because it’s part of K-Pop, but when guys do it I freak out. Everyone who’s over 12 and do that shit needs to look at his/hers life choices.

    I think it’s disgusting no matter who does it.

    Kinda weird coming from someone with that kind of image but whatever..

    and no shit…guys doing any kind of feminine cutesy cutesy bullshit is gay as fuck..no matter where youre from.

    i dont think its common amongst normal dudes…but it seems the celebs love it…but they live a special kind of life.

      gays has more access in girls,and they’re touch is less threatening since they claim “girls wasn’t their thing”.it is good excuse though if you are a real dude.

  5. I think the only man i’ve ever been okay with doing aegyo was Daesung, but he doesn’t even do it anymore.

  6. Even though I agree with him, but doesn’t it destroys the purpose for guys like Ren and Niel since they look extremely feminine? Seeing them acting and looking tough and masculine wouldn’t suit them if you ask me. Guys like them I wouldn’t mind the aegyo look. They’re my only exceptions. Fierce bitches are fierce.

    I absolutely fuckin agree with John Park.

    and this is also why I hate brian joo when he did variety shows.

  8. As if we didn’t have enough reasons to love John Park.

  9. Jong Kook doing aegyo on RM. *shiver* So wrong.

  10. Omg the article on AKP with its comments like… “Why is he against dudes doing it!? So it’s only ok for girls to do it!?!?!? SEXIST!!!!!!!!!!!!” Um…. why would he wanna see a dude talk/act like that? Well since I’m not super into the K-pop world, I don’t really see aegyo, but it’s Japanese counterpart, kawaii and…… I have my limits with it (if it’s like Sakai Wakana ‘s character from Manhattan Love Story then yeah, shut up I can’t stand you ^^;;) When dudes do it… well, it’s not really attractive or a turn on.. it just looks so painfully fake

    • Well, they are idiots.

      It’s clearly a cultural divide thing. No dude in America does this without catching shit for it.

      :o

  11. I think he’s just mad cause he’s bad at it lol.

  12. .. I never thought aegyo was supposed to be attractive, but funny.

    • “OOOPPPPPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

      Gives guys boners.

      If they are cute.

      • I never looked at it that way, holy fuck. Mind are blown.

        • It’s like you are being submissive and adorable to them, begging to be fed the dick.

          Nobody wants to say it out loud but that’s what it is.

          :o

          Men and our egos, man. :o

  14. I’m a little disappointed…
    Annoying, irritating, stupid: okay.
    But “disgusting?” maybe the translation makes it sound more loaded…

    It’s insinuating that men doing something that is feminine is disgusting which kind of pisses me off.

    • It can be weird, dude.

      I know gay guys who don’t like flamboyantly flaming types.

      :o

      • Not being attracted or being fond of it is a far cry from calling it disgusting…which is what I take issue with. Because to me, there’s some underlying homophobia…maybe he himself isn’t homophobic, but these kind of comments rub me raw.

    • nana-ate-my-nana

      i dont know where the akp translator got disgusting from…

      • That’s what I was wondering…if it was because of how it was translated.
