As tweets went viral, fans couldn't help but notice the striking similarity between Stray Kids' Hyunjin and the anime character Itadori Yuji from the popular series Jujutsu Kaisen. The connection between the two was undeniable, with everyone in agreement about the strong resemblance. Hyunjin's attire, featuring a long navy coat with a thick red neckline, had a striking resemblance to Yuji's school uniform from the anime. The uncanny resemblance even led fans to humorously suggest that the Stray Kids member was cosplaying for the Met Gala.
The uncanny similarity between Hyunjin and Yuji didn't end there. Fans were astonished to learn that both individuals share the same birthday, March 20! This incredible coincidence sparked excitement among many.
In Jujutsu Kaisen, a Japanese manga series penned and illustrated by Gege Akutami, Yuji Itadori, a compassionate teenager, initially joins his school's Occult Club for fun. However, he soon discovers that its members are actual sorcerers capable of manipulating energy between beings for their own purposes.
Upon learning about a cursed talisman - the finger of Sukuna, a demon - and its targeting by other cursed beings, Yuji takes a daring step to protect his friends: he consumes the finger. This action results in him becoming Sukuna's host.
Yet, Yuji's journey takes a surprising turn when he realizes that he has inherited magical abilities and can control these powers independently from Sukuna. Determined to rid himself of Sukuna's influence, Yuji enrolls in the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College with the goal of consuming all of Sukuna's fingers. This process will facilitate a full exorcism, ultimately freeing him from Sukuna's grip.
