BTOB member and actor Yook Sungjae is ready to reveal to fans and viewers his "fish whisperer" skills in a new SBS show. He already became the first idol to guest on the Fishing Channel's "Sports Fishing Decode," where he got to go bass boating and even became a reporter.
Now, Soompi reports that the new SBS show "Clench Your Fist and Blow the Boat Horn," will again show his fishing skills. According to PD Lee Young Jun, Yook Sungjae had no qualms about agreeing to do the show once he found out that they were going to the sea to catch fish. Despite his busy schedule of being both an actor and part of an idol group, it seems that nothing can stop Sungjae from doing the thing he loves.
In the show's pilot, viewers will bet to see Sungjae catch skate for in a 12-hour challenge. When previously asked about his love for fishing, it seems to be something that runs in the family as he related how his maternal grandfather was actually the first person to breed carp in South Korea. He even hilariously states that due to his closeness with fish, he can talk to them through ultrasound.
2016 has been a busy year for Sungjae and it looks like it will be the same for 2017. He was one of the cast members of the smash hit series "Goblin," which has earned not only rave reviews but record-breaking viewership ratings as well. He seems to have formed a good relationship with his co-stars in "Goblin" as Allkpop reports that Gong Yoo, Kim Go Eun, and Lee Dong Wook all went to support Sungjae at BTOB's concert.
Yook Sungjae was also recently seen in "Celebrity Bromance" along with friends Youngmin and Kwangmin of Boyfriends. He will also be part of the cast of "Law of the Jungle in Sumatra," which will begin shooting during the Lunar New Year.
