The Star Is Quite A ‘Derring-do’Artists tend to be conscious about people around looking at them and thus would choose to wear masks or caps really low. However, Ok Taecyeon, doesn’t seem to hide himself. He says, “Do not do things that you can’t do when you are in your 40’s. This is my thought ever since I debuted. Wearing nicely and putting on make up when going to the convenience store or on a daily basis, if I were to be able to keep these habits when I am in my 40’s, then it will be great. However, based on my personality, I am unable to keep these habits. If I were to care too much about being conscious in front of people, won’t I start to lose myself? Thus, I ignore other people’s watch on me on purpose. I should actually be thankful that people can recognize me.” 4. He Can Speak Multiple LanguagesTaecYeon can fluently speak four languages.
