Cha Eun Woo, often called the “face genius” of K-pop and K-drama, is famous for his flawless looks, and it seems those good genes run in the family. His younger brother recently caught attention, even in a brief, blurred appearance on the variety talk show You Quiz on the Block. Hosted by Yoo Jae Suk and Jo Se Ho, the show unintentionally sparked a fan frenzy just by showing him in the background.

The younger Lee appeared as a senior intern on set, standing tall at around 185 cm and showing striking facial features that reminded viewers of Cha Eun Woo. Even though he wasn’t the focus, his confident walk and presence were enough to grab attention. Fans quickly dubbed him a “copy” of his older brother, praising the family genes. His name hasn’t been officially revealed, and it’s unclear if he plans to step in front of the camera or stick to behind-the-scenes work.

Cha Eun Woo has spoken in the past about his younger brother wanting to carve his own path in the entertainment world. Reports suggest he works at a subsidiary of a major firm that deals with advertising and sports, though the details have been kept private. He’s reportedly two years younger than Cha Eun Woo and studied at Fudan University in China. Fans have noticed him at events like his brother’s concerts but generally try to respect his privacy.

The brief glimpse of his younger brother, however, has sparked speculation that the family’s star quality may be next in line to shine.
