A couple of days after the highly emotional finale of Queen of Tears, leading man Kim Soo Hyun is deservingly taking a break. The actor, who played Baek Hyun-woo in the hit K-drama, recently joined Korean social networking platform Bubble to connect with his fans. As one of his first few posts, he shared some selfies on the site—and one particular snap had many Filipino netizens immediately linking it to a certain funny girl back here in the Philippines.
LOOK: Kim Soo Hyun's Funny Photo on Bubble
Soo Hyun posted a set of photos on Bubble to update his followers about his whereabouts and what's been keeping him busy post-Queen of Tears. As adorable as he looked in every photo (as he always does), his pre-bedtime snap had us in stitches due to his facial expression. Take a look for yourself and try not to die laughing!

Suffice to say, several of the heartthrob's fans enjoyed Soo Hyun being goofy for a moment. Some Filipino followers thought that the pose looked kind of familiar. Baek Hyun-woo, have you met our very own Kuan of Tears, Melai Cantiveros?

Here's a side-by-side comparison because it just gets funnier the more you look at it.

Netizens React to Kim Soo Hyun Doing the "Melai" Face
Melai, an avid K-culture fan herself, noticed the comparison and posted it on Instagram, resulting in waves of amusement from her friends and followers. We could already hear Maymay Entrata and Samantha Bernardo chuckling!

One netizen already had the working title for a potential parody series of the K-drama. We're sure those tears are from people who just can't stop laughing!

Melai could take over Kim Ji Won's leading lady seat. Hong Hae In-Grown does have a good ring to it, don't you think? LOL!
