Gooyoung Jung: Mister International Korea 2016

Gooyoung Jung (정구영) is ‪Mister International Korea 2016‬. The 30-year-old handsome lass from Seoul won the title in a grand finale held last August 21, 2016. The 5'11-tall archer will represent Korea in the 11th edition of ‪‎Mister International‬ to be held in Bangkok, Thailand on February 5-13, 2017. The pageant was rescheduled because of the death of King Bhumibol of Thailand last October and the request of the Thai government to observe the period of mourning in the country. The Mister International 2016 will be webcast live on www.MisterInternational.net. Mister International 2015 Pedro Mendes of Portugal will crown his successor at the finals night.

Gooyoung Jung is a 29-year Pilate instructor from Seoul. He was a national archer with the Korean Archery team for 13 years and has won many gold medals for his country. After finishing his military service, he has worked as a chef in his own Italian restaurant and acted in Korean dramas. His future plan is to become a model and actor while continue pursuing his career as a Pilate instructor.
