[OSEN=서정환 기자] Referee Jeong Dong-sik (44), famous for “looking like Kim Min-jae,” turned Napoli upside down.

The YouTube channel ‘Shoot for Love’ released a video on the 29th of referee Jeong Dong-sik’s visit to Napoli. We can feel the live atmosphere of Napoli, who are about to win the Scudetto for the first time in 33 years.

As soon as referee Jeong Dong-sik arrived at the airport, there was a fuss about his resemblance to Kim Min-jae. Referee Jung, who looked similar, was even wearing a Napoli uniform, so he was Kim Min-jae. The lane was paralyzed as Napoli fans, regardless of gender and age, asked for autographs and photos. “Kim! Kim! The fans who chanted “Kim!” even giving away free pizza.

Embarrassingly, referee Jeong Dong-sik wrote “I’m not Kim Min-jae!” in Italian on a pizza box and carry it around. Kim Min-jae’s dress request for an autograph was also politely declined. Despite the explanation of ‘Jamminjae’, the fans laughed happily and said, “It doesn’t matter” and took a photo with Judge Jung.

Judge Jeong Dong-sik said, “It’s hard to be famous. I can’t eat comfortably and go anywhere. Even though I said it wasn’t Kim Min-jae, I asked for a photo. As a Korean, I feel very proud” and rather feel the huge popularity of Kim Min-jae. It was easy to see photos and outfits of Kim Min-jae all over Naples. / jasonseo34@osen.co.kr
