The Robert Pattinson 'Aegyo' Effect
A lot of you are wondering why Robert Pattinson suddenly did 'aegyo' and other South Korean stuff. Well, we have to thank Bong Joon-ho for it, Robert Pattinson's director on his MICKEY 17 film! Because of Bong Joon-ho's influence on Robert Pattinson— doing trendy things in South Korea, the serious and brooding Robert Pattinson was replaced with fun, cutesy, colorful Robert Pattinson, making him more loved by his growing fans, old and new!
The 2025 Robert Pattinson made us happy because number 1) he is having fun! and number 2) it was not part of our 2025 bingo card that he will do aegyo, AT ALL!
It goes to show that a good actor-director pairing is important because it can unleash your inner child that has been sleeping for far too long! Also, having a great actor-director relationship can make your work fun, and happy, and give lots of energy, 'aegyo' included!
